Rain Bird PGA Solenoid Valves

The Rain Bird PGA Solenoid Valves are Rain Bird's work-horse of commercial grade solenoid valves. Use these on large landscape projects, large grass lawns, sports pitches, golf courses and other large irrigation systems where reliability matters. For standard irrigation controllers, including decoder controllers, use the 24vac option. For battery-operated timers that are not connected to mains power, use the 9 volt DC latching option.

Plastic globe and angle valves. The toughest, most reliable valves in their class

Built for high-end residential and light commercial applications, Rain Bird® PGA series valves are the toughest, most reliable valves in their class. These long-lasting, easy-to-service valves are proven to perform at the highest level, even under harsh temperatures and intense pressure. For maximum peace of mind, PGA series valves also offer a best-in-class, three-year trade warranty. Because you care about your reputation—and so do we.

Extreme Durability
The PGA valve maintains a strong, worry-free seal between the body and bonnet, no matter the conditions. In Thermal Cycle Testing, hundreds of PGA valves were exposed to extreme temperature swings and intense pressures. The result—zero leaks.*

Pressure-Resistant Seal
The PGA valve’s body-to-bonnet seal is built to overcome the intense water pressure common on many commercial sites. Faced with repeated pressure surges well into the triple digits, our valves outlasted the nearest competitor more than 2½ times to 1 in Cycle Surge Testing.*

Easy Maintenance
Multi-drive screws make servicing the PGA valve simple. With the option of flathead, Phillips or hexagonal, you have the freedom and convenience you need to get things done faster. *Currently available on 2” PGA models only.

Quiet Performance
With a robust electrical design, the PGA valve greatly reduces noise and delivers years of reliable performance. So not only will you have peace of mind, you’ll have peace and quiet.
