Brand: K-Rain SKU: 74001-RCW
Product Overview
The K-Rain 74001-RCW is the reclaimed-water-identified version of the 4-inch K-Spray pop-up sprinkler body. It uses a molded purple cap and collar to help distinguish landscape irrigation supplied by approved non-potable, recycled, or reclaimed-water systems. The body has a female-threaded riser for compatible male-threaded nozzles, which are selected separately based on the required pattern and radius.
The 4-inch pop-up height is suited to maintained turf and planted areas. UV-resistant resin, corrosion-resistant components, a stainless-steel retraction spring, and a heavy-duty wiper seal support reliable extension and retraction. The ratcheting riser allows the pattern to be aligned after installation without turning the buried body.
Current K-Rain K-Spray specifications list a 1/2-inch female NPT inlet and 20- to 70-PSI pressure rating. The purple identification helps communicate non-potable-water use but does not by itself satisfy every local reclaimed-water requirement. Confirm required signs, pipe and valve-box marking, separation, cross-connection control, and backflow protection. A watering nozzle and check valve are not included with this base RCW model.
