Brand: K-Rain SKU: 7215
Product Overview
The K-Rain 7215 is a 1½-inch female NPT ProSeries 200 electric irrigation valve for systems requiring high-pressure capability in a smaller high-flow connection size. Its glass-filled nylon body and reinforced rubber diaphragm are designed for reliable cycling in demanding commercial, municipal, pump-fed, and large residential irrigation systems.
K-Rain publishes a 6–200 PSI operating range and a model-specific recommended flow range of 20–100 GPM. The valve includes adjustable flow control, a top-mounted flow-direction indicator, large internal openings, and a self-cleaning diaphragm. Its standard 24 VAC solenoid supports controller operation and manual opening through the solenoid handle.
Before installation, confirm the 1½-inch NPT piping, static and dynamic pressure, surge conditions, design flow, pipe pressure rating, controller output, filtration, valve-box clearance, and required backflow protection. Flush the line, support the piping, install in the indicated direction, and follow approved thread-sealing practices. Because systems near the upper pressure limit can experience damaging water hammer, include pressure regulation, surge protection, and appropriate closing-time considerations where required.
