Unequaled Quality and Performance
Remote Pump Station Access
Rain Bird’s user interface is a network ready design that allows for remote access via PC, laptop, tablet, smart phone, or any web-enabled mobile device. These devices are simple to navigate, properly formats to the screen of the device being used and allows for complete control and monitoring of your golf Pump Station. This remote accessibility provides Rain Bird customers the confidence to control their pumping systems when they are away from the course.
Electrical Design
Rain Bird® pump stations are built to UL508A standards and use the industry’s best surge suppression reducing the risk of electronic component damage that could lead to inconvenient and costly downtime. This design includes full heavy-duty circuit breaker integration providing the ultimate protection with the best serviceability.
Backup Pressure Regulation
Every station comes with an engineered design and properly sized pressure relief valve to provide automatic pressure regulation in the event of an overpressure situation.
VFD Per Motor (VPM) Option
Rain Bird offers the industry’s most comprehensive package upon request, including a VFD for each main motor on a multi-pump station. This option offers superior motor protection along with no mechanical switching components. It also provides a level of efficient backup pressure regulation that a pressure relief valve or butterfly valve cannot deliver.
Durable Polyester Powder-Coating
Rain Bird’s in-house steel-grit blasting system assures all exterior surfaces of the pump station are prepared to specification standards and allows for the best coating adhesion. The polyester powder-coat Rain Bird applies is far more durable than competitive solvent-based multi-layer coatings. In fact, Rain Bird’s powder-coating process scores a 10 out of 10 on an ASTM corrosion test provided by Sherwin Williams. Other industry pump stations scored four (4) out of 10 on the very same test. In addition the powder‑coating process is considered very environmentally friendly.
Engineered Pump Station Skid Design
Using 3D modeling, the channel steel skid frame is engineered for strength and rigidity. This engineered design reduces vibration and eliminates the need for raised, extra‑thick steel plates under the pump heads, which can be a trip hazard. The deck is the industry’s strongest and longest lasting with continuously welded smooth steel plate. In addition, Rain Bird follows industry standards and manufacturer’s recommendations for station components such as the proper specifications for flow meters.
Advanced Controls
With the industry’s leading touch screens, Rain Bird continues to innovate by offering the largest screen as a standard. Beyond being network ready, this interface offers up to 20 years of historical memory capability and USB backup. With features such as filtration integration, water feature control, lake level control, pump lockouts, auto set point adjustment per pump, motor starts protection, and many more, Rain Bird has driven pump station innovation in the Golf Industry for the last decade.
Real-Time System Integration
Rain Bird pump stations have Pump Manager 2 and Smart Pump™ technology at the central control, so you can configure your system to automatically monitor and self-adjust to changing conditions. This seamless integration by Rain Bird improves your system’s overall performance by reducing watering windows and minimizing energy use.
Pump and Motor Options
Rain Bird offers custom designed cast iron discharge heads for golf irrigation pump stations. With superior flow characteristics and 12 times the required tensile strength for golf pump stations, they are the obvious choice for the application. Rain Bird utilizes G.E. motors with industry-leading warranties, efficiencies and durability.
Air Relief
Rain Bird provides air relief on each pump. Individual air relief valves allow for the maximum amount of air to be removed from the pump columns and not enter into the irrigation system.
User Controls
Rain Bird pump stations have set the bar with simple, large-icon touchscreen controls in nine (9) different languages. Each pump has a lighted, three position Manual–Off–Auto switch for intuitive, safe backup control of the station.
