Brand: Hunter Industries SKU: PROS06PRS40CV
Product Overview
The Hunter PROS-06-PRS40-CV is a 6-inch pop-up sprinkler body with an in-stem pressure regulator set to approximately 40 PSI and a factory-installed drain check valve. The Big Frog Supply SKU is stored as PROS06PRS40CV. Hunter designed the PRS40 platform around compatible MP Rotator nozzles, while the taller 6-inch riser provides additional clearance over higher turf and nearby plant material. The watering nozzle is sold separately.
The gray cap identifies the 40 PSI configuration in the field. Its check valve helps hold water in the lateral line for elevation differences up to approximately 14 feet, reducing low-head drainage after the irrigation zone shuts off. A co-molded wiper seal, heavy-duty spring, ratcheting riser, and directional flush plug support installation and service.
