Brand: Hunter Industries SKU: PGV-101G-S
Product Overview
The Hunter PGV-101-G-S is a 1-inch screw-top irrigation valve with slip inlet and outlet connections plus an integrated flow-control stem. The Big Frog Supply SKU is stored as PGV-101G-S. It is designed for residential and light-commercial solvent-weld PVC systems that need a 24 VAC control valve with local flow adjustment.
Hunter rates the 1-inch PGV family for approximately 0.2 to 40 GPM and a recommended pressure range of 20 to 150 PSI. The flow-control stem supports zone balancing, reduction of excessive flow, or manual shutoff during service. The valve also uses a double-beaded diaphragm, reverse-flow solenoid design, internal and external manual bleed, and a standard encapsulated 24 VAC solenoid.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does PGV-101G-S include flow control?
Yes. Hunter identifies PGV-101-G-S as the slip-connection model with a flow-control stem.
Are these threaded connections?
No. Both the inlet and outlet are slip sockets intended for compatible solvent-weld piping.
Can the valve be used with a battery controller?
The included solenoid is 24 VAC. Supported battery-controller systems require a compatible Hunter DC-latching solenoid.
