Valves for Agricultural IrrigationTECH SPECS• PGA 1", 1 1/2", and2" Plastic Electric Valves 24VAC• PESB 1", 1 1/2", and2" Plastic Electric Valves 24VAC• BPES 3" Hybrid Brass andPlastic Electric Valves 24VACRugged, reliable, versatile. Rain Birdvalves are engineered to performunder demanding conditions inagricultural irrigation systems. Gotdirty water? Just use the PESB or BPESSeries valves with the patented selfcleaningscrubber feature, whichkeeps grit and contaminants frombuilding up and clogging internalports. Need pressure regulation? Addthe new optional PRS-D dial pressureregulating module for smooth,accurate downstream pressurecontrol.All valves feature the internal bleedsolenoid for manual operation, evenwith pressure regulation. And all ofthis performance is available at anaffordable price. Rain Bird valves,performance and value.Common Features• Flow control handle to adjustflows as needed• Turn of solenoid handle permitsmanual operation with internalbleed.
