K-Rain 6403 4-Outlet 6000 Series Valve for 3-Zone Operation
Brand: K-Rain | SKU: 6403
Product Overview
The K-Rain 6403 is a 4-outlet 6000 Series indexing valve configured for 3-zone operation. The installed cam advances through 3 selected outlets and leaves 1 physical outlet outside the operating sequence as the upstream pump or control valve shuts off and restarts.
This heavy-duty indexing valve is used for pump systems, high-flow city-water irrigation, and approved onsite wastewater or effluent systems where three downstream zones are served from one controlled source.
Before ordering, confirm the outlet count, zone sequence, inlet and outlet sizes, available flow, operating pressure, and whether the installation requires separate backflow protection. Indexing valves depend on a complete interruption of water flow between cycles so the internal stem-and-disc assembly can reset and advance.

Frequently Asked Questions
What happens to the fourth outlet?
The three-zone cam leaves one physical outlet outside the sequence.
Can it be converted to four zones?
Yes. Install the compatible four-zone cam and connect the remaining outlet.
Does it require three controller wires?
No. Downstream selection is hydraulic; only the upstream water source must be cycled.
