Rain Bird PGA Globe and Angle Valve with Flow Control
The Rain Bird PGA Series Globe Angle Valves are the right, versatile choice for any job, offering the flexibility of both globe and angle configurations in one valve. These economical, heavy-duty PVC valves are easy to install and built to last, reliably withstanding constant pressure up to 150 psi and flows from 2 to 150 gpm. Constructed from durable PVC and glass-reinforced nylon, the PGA series is packed with features for long-term performance. A filtered pilot flow resists debris and clogging , while the slow-closing design prevents water hammer and protects your irrigation system. Maintenance is simple thanks to a manual internal bleed that operates the valve without flooding the box , a one-piece solenoid with a captured plunger to prevent lost parts , and a non-rising flow control handle to adjust flow as needed.
