Rain Bird XFCV0612500 is a 0.6 GPH pressure‑compensating dripline with a heavy‑duty check valve, supplied as a 500 ft coil with 12" emitter spacing. Engineered for on‑surface irrigation and sites with elevation changes, the XFCV maintains uniform watering across the lateral while resisting clogging, UV degradation and chemical exposure.

  • Consistent performance: Pressure‑compensating emitters deliver 0.6 GPH (≈2.3 L/hr) across the lateral to ensure even watering and healthy plant growth.
  • Built‑in check valve: Heavy‑duty 3.5 psi check valve keeps the line charged and holds up to 8 ft of elevation to prevent low‑point puddling and runoff.
  • Durable construction: Dual‑layer polyethylene (brown over black) improves resistance to UV, chemicals and algae for long service life in exposed installations.
  • Key specifications: 500 ft coil, 12" emitter spacing, OD 0.634" (16 mm), ID 0.536" (13.6 mm), wall thickness ≈0.049" (1.2 mm).
  • Compatibility: Accepts Rain Bird Easy Fit compression fittings, XF barbed 17 mm insert fittings and similar 17 mm barbed fittings for straightforward connections.
  • Operating requirements: Designed for use in the 20–60 PSI range; recommended filtration is 120 mesh to protect emitters from debris.

Simple to design and install, the XFCV0612500 is an effective solution for landscape beds, slopes, planters and other on‑surface drip applications where uniformity, clog tolerance and reliable shutoff at low points are required. Follow standard dripline best practices—flush before use, install recommended filtration and avoid prolonged exposure to temperatures above recommended limits—to maximize performance and service life.

Frequently Asked Questions

What filtration is recommended for the XFCV dripline?
Use 120‑mesh or finer filtration before the zone to protect emitters and reduce clogging.
How much elevation can the built‑in check valve hold?
The heavy‑duty check valve maintains charge and holds up to about 8 ft of elevation to prevent low‑point drainage.
Will this dripline work with Easy Fit or barbed fittings?
Yes. XFCV accepts Rain Bird Easy Fit compression, XF 17 mm barbed insert fittings and other 17 mm barbed fittings.
What is the recommended operating pressure range?
The pressure‑compensating emitters perform reliably across approximately 20–60 PSI; design systems within this range.
