5000 / 5000+ Series

Engineered to be the Industry’s Most Reliable and Best Performing Rotor

Offering unmatched performance from 25' to 50', Rain Bird 5000 series rotors are ideal for residential, light commercial and commercial applications. By combining the industry’s only Triple-Blade Wiper Seal with unrivaled Rain Curtain™ nozzles, 5000 series rotors give you even coverage and enduring reliability that the best contractors demand.

Exclusive Triple Blade Wiper Seal
Providing seven times the leak protection of single-blade wiper seals, the Triple-Blade Wiper Seal makes 5000 rotors the most leak-resistant rotors on the market. Designed to keep water in and debris out, the Triple-Blade Wiper Seal saves you time and money—and it saves your reputation, too.

Industry-Leading Rain Curtain Nozzles
Engineered to provide a uniform spray pattern that competitors can’t match, Rain Curtain nozzles deliver large water droplets for superior wind resistance and gentle close-in watering that eliminates brown spots around the head.

Options for Every Application
With three models available (Plus, PRS and SAM), 5000 series rotors give you options that meet the expectations of your business or the demands of any jobsite. (For more details, see models below.)

Backed by a 5-Year Trade Warranty
Built to the highest quality standards, every 5000 series rotor is backed by the confidence of a 5-year trade warranty.

NotePop-up height measured from the cover to the nozzle. Overall body height is measured popped down

Optional PRS Feature
  • In-stem pressure regulator (PRS) reduces operating pressure to 45 psi (3,1 bar) for optimal nozzle performance
  • PRS saves water by:
    • Eliminating head-to-head pressure variations
    • Eliminating misting due to high pressure
    • Improving nozzle distribution uniformity by operating the nozzle at optimum pressure
  • Maintenance-free design can be easily retrofitted into existing 5000/5000 Plus, T-Bird™ and Hunter® PGP™ (using UPG model) rotor cases without digging up the entire body
  • Pressure: 25-75 psi (1,7 to 5,2 bar)
