All-in-One Zone Control XAOZ100

Brand: Rain Bird SKU: XAOZ100

Product Details

The Rain Bird XAOZ100 All-in-One Zone Control is a revolutionary solution for drip irrigation management. By integrating a low-flow valve, a 200-mesh filter, and a pressure regulator into a single, compact housing, this unit significantly reduces the footprint and installation time of a control zone. It solves the common problem of complex, leak-prone valve manifolds by minimizing the number of threaded connections, providing a streamlined and reliable point of control for any low-volume irrigation system.

Key Features:

• 3-in-1 Integration: Combines the control valve, filtration, and pressure regulation in one unit to save space and reduce labor costs.
• Reduced Leak Points: By eliminating multiple components and extra fittings, the XAOZ100 minimizes the potential for system failures and water waste.
• High-Efficiency Filtration: Includes a 200-mesh (75-micron) stainless steel filter to protect downstream emitters from clogging.
• Fixed Pressure Regulation: Features an integrated regulator that maintains a consistent 30 psi or 40 psi (model dependent) to ensure optimal drip emitter performance.

Specifications:

• Inlet/Outlet: 1″ Female National Pipe Thread (FNPT)
• Flow Range: 0.2 to 20.0 Gallons Per Minute (GPM)
• Operating Pressure: 20 to 120 psi
• Regulated Pressure: 30 psi (Standard for XAOZ100)
• Filtration: 200 Mesh Stainless Steel Screen
• Electrical: 24 VAC Solenoid

Installation & Maintenance Tips:

• Flush Before Use: Always flush the supply line thoroughly before installing the zone control unit to prevent construction debris from entering the valve.
• Filter Cleaning: The filter cap can be easily unscrewed for manual cleaning. Rinse the stainless steel mesh under clean water whenever debris buildup is noticed.
• Directional Flow: Ensure the arrow on the side of the housing is pointing in the direction of the water flow to ensure the valve and regulator function correctly.

Common Uses/Applications:

• Residential Drip Zones: Ideal for flower beds, foundation plantings, and container gardens.
• Commercial Landscapes: Provides a professional, low-profile solution for median strips and office park greenery.
• Retrofit Projects: Perfect for converting existing high-pressure spray zones into efficient low-volume drip systems.

Common Questions:

Q: Can I use this with a battery-operated controller?

A: The XAOZ100 comes with a standard 24 VAC solenoid. To use it with a battery-powered controller, you would need to replace the solenoid with a DC latching solenoid.

Q: Does the unit handle high-pressure water sources?

A: Yes, it is rated to handle inlet pressures up to 120 psi, which it then regulates down to the safe operating pressure for your drip tubing.

Q: Is the filter screen replaceable?

A: Yes, the stainless steel screen is durable and washable, but it can also be replaced if it becomes damaged or lost.

With its compact, leak-resistant design and integrated components, the Rain Bird XAOZ100 All-in-One Zone Control is the perfect solution for anyone looking to simplify their drip irrigation installation without sacrificing performance.
