SOLENOID VALVES - RAIN BIRD

Rain Bird DV, DVF and PGA valves control water flow to irrigation zones. DV and DVF models have a double-filtered pilot circuit to help keep the control passages clear. PGA models combine a PVC body with a glass-filled nylon bonnet and slow closing to help reduce water hammer. The range includes AC models and a DC-latching DVF for compatible battery-operated controllers.

✓ Sizes: 25mm, 40mm and 50mm
✓ Power: 24V AC models and a 9V DC-latching DVF
✓ Flow Control: Adjustable water flow on DVF and PGA models

Rain Bird DV black solenoid valve with bundled leads, side view.

Rain Bird DV, DVF and PGA solenoid valves control the water supply to irrigation zones. Select the model to suit the required flow, operating pressure, connections and controller output.

DV and DVF valves have a double-filtered pilot circuit to help keep debris out of their control passages. The DVF includes a handle for adjusting water flow. The listed DC-latching DVF operates with a compatible battery-powered controller; the other listed valves use 24V AC.

PGA valves combine a PVC body with a glass-filled nylon bonnet. Their slow-closing action helps reduce water hammer, and the flow-control handle adjusts water flow without rising as it is turned.

On the 24V AC DV and DVF models, turn the solenoid handle anticlockwise 1/4 to 1/2 turn to open the valve manually. PGA models use 1/4 to 3/4 turn, until water flows. Return the handle clockwise to close the manual control and restore controller operation. Internal bleed releases pressure above the diaphragm into the outlet pipe. The DV and DVF external bleed screw releases water outside the valve for flushing during installation and start-up. Keep this screw closed during normal controller operation.

✓ Product Range & Application
Rain Bird DV/DVF and PGA irrigation solenoid valves.

✓ Models & Sizes
25mm DV, 24V AC
25mm DVF with flow control, 24V AC
25mm DVF with flow control, 9V DC-latching coil
40mm 150PGA with flow control, 24V AC
50mm 200PGA with flow control, 24V AC

✓ Electrical Operation
24V AC models require a compatible AC irrigation controller. The 9V DC-latching DVF requires a compatible controller providing opening and closing pulses.

✓ Pressure & Flow
25mm DV/DVF with 24V AC solenoid: 100-1040 kPa; 0.05-9.08 m3/h (approximately 0.83-151 L/min).
PGA: 104-1035 kPa, with maximum continuous pressure reducing as water temperature rises. Use the size-specific globe or angle pressure-loss chart.

✓ Flow Control & Manual Operation
Flow control: Adjusts water flow on DVF and PGA models.
Manual solenoid operation, 24V AC DV/DVF: Anticlockwise 1/4 to 1/2 turn.
Manual solenoid operation, PGA: Anticlockwise 1/4 to 3/4 turn, until water flows.
Internal bleed: Releases pressure above the diaphragm into the outlet pipe.
DV/DVF external bleed screw: Flushes the valve at start-up; discharges outside the valve. Keep closed during normal controller operation.

✓ Construction & Installation
DV/DVF: Double-filtered pilot circuit and Buna-N diaphragm. For drip irrigation or flows below 12.5 L/min, install the specified upstream filter.
PGA: PVC body, glass-filled nylon bonnet, filtered pilot flow and slow-closing action. Globe/angle configuration.

✓ PGA Pressure & Temperature
Maximum continuous pressure:
23°C: 1035 kPa
27°C: 910 kPa
32°C: 770 kPa
38°C: 640 kPa
43°C: 520 kPa
