Rain Bird RBY075MPTX 3/4-Inch Inline Filter with 200-Mesh Screen

Rain Bird RBY075MPTX 3/4-Inch Inline Filter with 200-Mesh Screen

Brand: Rain Bird | SKU: RBY075MPTX

Product Overview

RBY075MPTX is a static screen filter for a low-volume irrigation zone with nominal 3/4-inch threaded connections. It screens debris before water reaches the emitters and lets you remove the screen through the cap for cleaning. It does not provide the pressure-regulating function of a PRF-series filter.

Key Features

• 200-mesh / 75-micron stainless steel screen.
• Male threaded inlet and outlet for matching valve, regulator or adapter connections.
• O-ring-sealed cap opens for screen access.
• Glass-filled polypropylene construction.

Common Uses

• Filtering water for drip emitters and other compatible low-volume devices.
• Adding serviceable filtration downstream of an irrigation control valve.

• Static filter; no automatic valve or pressure regulation.
• Install downstream of a control valve; do not leave under constant pressure.

Dimensions

Manufacturer-listed dimensions are 6 inches long x 2 inches wide x 4.5 inches high. The 3/4-inch connection size is nominal pipe fit, separate from these overall dimensions. Allow additional clearance to unscrew the cap and remove the screen.

Compatibility & Installation Notes

Match the male pipe threads to compatible female fittings and install in the direction of the molded flow arrow. Rain Bird requires this filter downstream of a control valve and not under constant pressure. Select a separate regulator if the emitters need pressure reduction, and check their required filtration against the 200-mesh screen. Account for filter pressure loss when sizing the zone. Shut off water and relieve pressure before opening the cap; clean the screen and inspect the sealing O-ring before reassembly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does RBY075MPTX regulate pressure?

No. It is a static screen filter. Choose a separate compatible pressure regulator when the drip layout requires pressure reduction.

What screen does it use?

It uses a 200-mesh / 75-micron stainless steel screen. Rain Bird lists RBY-200SSMX as the replacement screen.

Can it remain on a constantly pressurized mainline?

No. Install it downstream of a control valve where it will not remain under constant pressure.

Why Buy from Big Frog Supply?

Choose RBY075MPTX for a nominal 3/4-inch connection and a design flow within 0.20–12.0 GPM. Its 200-mesh stainless steel screen suits emitters requiring that filtration level, while the removable cap makes access for cleaning part of the installation plan. A separate regulator is needed when pressure reduction is required; the RBY name alone does not indicate a regulating model.
