Product Description
RainBird 100PGA Series Plastic 1" Globe and Angle Valve Valve
PGA Series
Plastic Globe and Angle Valves. The Toughest, Most Reliable Valves In
their Class
Features
• Water-tight seal between the body and bonnet for maximum
confidence, even in the most extreme conditions
• Robust construction and electrical design for quiet performance you
can count on
• Filtered pilot flow to resist debris and clogging
• Slow closing to prevent water hammer and subsequent system damage
• Normally closed, forward flow design Accepts latching solenoid for use
with Rain Bird battery-operated controllers
• Multi-drive screws (Phillips, flathead, hexagonal) for easy maintenance*
• Manual internal bleed operates the valve without allowing water into
the valve box. This allows the pressure regulator to be adjusted without
turning the valve on at the controller
• One-piece solenoid design with captured plunger and spring for easy
servicing. Prevents loss of parts during field service
• Three-year trade warranty
• Accommodates optional, field-installed PRS-D pressure regulating dial
to ensure optimum sprinkler performance
• Accepts latching solenoid for use with Rain Bird battery-operated
controllers
Extreme Durability
The PGA valve maintains a strong, worryfree
seal between the body and bonnet,
no matter the conditions. 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 typical of
many commercial sites. Faced with repeated
pressure surges well into the triple digits, our
valves outlasted the nearest competitor more
than 2 ½ times to 1.*

Recommendations
1. Rain Bird recommends flow rates in the supply line not to exceed 7.5 ft/sec
(2.29 m/s) in order to reduce the effects of water hammer
2. For flows below 5 gpm (1.14 m3⁄h; 19.2 l/m), Rain Bird recommends use of upstream filtration to prevent
debris from collecting below the diaphragm
3. For flows below 10 gpm (2.27 m3⁄h; 37.8 l/m) Rain Bird recommends the flow
control stem be turned down two full turns from the fully open position
