K-Rain
K-Rain PROSERIES 100 Valve
Best reliable component for consistent irrigation system performance.
Engineered to handle the dirtiest water, the K-Rain PROSERIES 100 valve offers a reliable, straight-through flow pattern that minimizes the risk of failure from trapped debris. Its unique tilted diaphragm design enhances the flow path compared to traditional globe-style electric valves, reducing friction loss and increasing flow rate. This valve features a self-cleaning screen, where water flow actively cleans the diaphragm filter screen. An optional manual flow control is available for precise zone flow adjustment, with a removable handle to prevent tampering. The captured plunger solenoid allows for easy servicing without losing internal parts, and the epoxy-encapsulated solenoid ensures long-lasting durability.

Know before you buy
Yes, the PROSERIES 100 is specifically engineered to handle dirty water. Its straight-through flow design and self-cleaning screen help prevent debris from clogging the valve, making it a reliable choice for non-potable water sources.
The tilted diaphragm creates a more direct flow path compared to standard globe valves. This reduces friction loss within the valve, which allows for a higher flow rate and more consistent pressure throughout your irrigation system.
Yes, this model features an optional manual flow control that allows you to fine-tune the water output for each zone. The handle is also removable, which is a helpful feature if you want to prevent unauthorized adjustments.
Not at all. The valve uses a captured plunger solenoid, which means the internal parts stay together when you remove it. This design prevents small components from getting lost during routine servicing or repairs.
This specific model features a 0.75-inch threaded BSP connection. Please ensure your existing irrigation piping matches this specification before installation.
