The XFS-CV Subsurface Check Valve Dripline delivers reliable, pressure-compensated watering with industry-leading root intrusion protection and a heavy-duty 4.3 psi check valve that holds up to 10 feet (3 m) of water column. Engineered for both subsurface and on-surface applications, XFS-CV maintains uniform emitter output across long lateral runs and elevation changes while minimizing maintenance and water loss.

  • Copper Shield™ Technology: A pure copper chip in every emitter provides active root intrusion protection that reduces clogging and the need for chemical treatments.
  • Heavy-duty 4.3 psi check valve: Patent-pending check valve keeps the dripline charged to prevent low-point drainage and allows use on slopes and grade changes up to 10 ft (3 m).
  • Pressure-compensated emitters: Provide a steady 0.6 gph output across a wide operating range (20–60 psi) for improved uniformity and consistent plant watering.
  • Flexible, durable tubing: Dual-layer construction (copper over black) resists chemicals, algae and UV degradation while remaining highly flexible for easier installation and long lateral runs.
  • Installation & sizing: 18 in. emitter spacing; 500 ft. coil; OD 0.634" (16 mm), ID 0.536" (13.6 mm), thickness 0.049" (1.2 mm). Compatible with XF compression and 17 mm barbed insert fittings; requires 120-mesh filtration.
  • Operating temperatures: Water up to 100°F (37.8°C) and ambient temperatures up to 125°F (51.7°C), suitable for a wide range of climates and irrigation schedules.

Available in 500 ft coils with copper, purple, or purple-stripe options, XFS-CV is ideal for commercial and residential landscapes that need reliable subsurface performance, especially where elevation changes or root intrusion are concerns. Pair with Rain Bird design tools and standard XF fittings for faster layout, better uniformity, and long-term reliability.
