Orbit 57461 1" FPT Jar Top Automatic Sprinkler Valve

Bought it as a replacement. Worked perfectly

Connected this up to two 9v batteries and used some other plumbing supplies to make an air powered rocket launcher! Works perfectly! (as far as actually using it for its INTENDED use, I've got these installed in my sprinkler system, and haven't had any issues in the two years they've been hooked up. Seem to be pretty solid devices).

This Orbit valve is the way to go! Easy install and once it’s in, super easy to unscrew the lid & replace the internals. Price very reasonable. Highly recommend!

I have a 30 zone system that I put in 15 years ago. These valves work well, but it seems that I need to replace one or two each year. This isn't too bad because I can do it myself, but if you have to pay someone to do it, it could get a little costly. The biggest problem is that a valve will not turn off. I have tried the repair kits with very little success. Since the valves are about $15 each, I just keep a couple handy at all times. Replacing a valve requires plumbing and electrical skills.

this product works as it should. was relatively easy to install. the only issue is a slight buzzing sounding as it receives the signal from the panel. the noise does not go away until the switch is shut off. its a low toned buzzing sound which should not be a problem for most valves that are in boxes underground. I would recommend this product for its value and ease of use.

We have an older irrigation system & find replacement parts at our local store is impossible. We keep a few of these on hand at all times. Then when we have a leak, we are ready to repair. Thank you for stocking them

At first a little worried about the flow restriction; re-phrase that A LOT WORRIED.I applied 24 volts on the solenoid and could hear and feel the solenoid engaging. Having no experience with a electrically operated water valve I assumed it to be in the open position, but yet I could hardly blow through the valve.Well after purchasing another 1 just like it, I had the same effect, Would not open enough to even count.To make this story shorter I made a little 3/4" adapter for a water hose hook-up and with the pressure it seems to open fully, kinda like when applying the operating voltage to the solenoid you just unlock the valve, after that a small amount of water pressure will open the valve fully.By saying fully I am going by a container I used. It took 17 seconds to fill the container using the solenoid valve and when I took it off and ran through just a straight hose my timing was still 17 seconds.I needed the second one I bought just to try out the first one about a week later on a ground coupled heat pump.So far no problems from either one.

Perfect replacement part
