Designed to reduce fogging and stabilize flow, the PCS040 helps control spray pattern and minimize water waste in higher-pressure irrigation systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlow rating: 0.40 GPM at recommended operating conditions; color-coded orange for fast identification.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompensates for pressure variations to deliver more consistent nozzle performance across common irrigation pressures (1.0–4.8 bar \/ 15–70 psi).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with all 1800 Series plastic nozzles and simple to install—replace the standard screen with the PCS insert for retrofit or new installations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhen matched with specific nozzles, screens create short‑throw, reduced‑radius patterns or allow flush‑mounted bubbler configurations for targeted shrub and foundation watering.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDurable, non‑corroding construction provides reliable service in landscape and shrub irrigation applications; color coding reduces selection errors during maintenance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse the PCS040 to reduce nozzle fogging, shorten throw distance when needed, and achieve steadier flow at variable inlet pressures. For applications that require a truly constant outlet pressure regardless of inlet changes, pair PCS screens with a pressure regulator and consult the Rain Bird 1800 PCS performance charts for precise radius and flow values.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rain Bird","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43673443145,"sku":"PCS040","price":2.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1987\/5531\/products\/PCS040-1-1.jpg?v=1552421613","url":"https:\/\/www.sprinklersupplystore.com\/products\/rain-bird-pc-screen-orange","provider":"Sprinkler Supply Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
