Electronic (AC) Valves

Electronic (AC) Valves and Accessories

These high quality, in-line valves are designed for use with any of the electronic AC timers we carry, or most any other 24 volt electric timer. These valves operate at low flows to accommodate the lower water use of drip systems.

All in-line valves are designed for below ground installation (inside a valve box), and have female pipe threads on both inlet and outlet.

See our manifold swivel fittings for a fast, flexible and easy way to assemble electric valves.

IMPORTANT NOTES:

  • Do not use pipe dope around any automated valve (AC or DC).
  • Always install a filter in your system before your electric valves.
    Debris in the valve will void any warranty.
  • Always install valves in the horizontal position.
    Failure to do so may cause damage to the valve.
  • The solenoid should be on the downstream side of the valve. There is an arrow on the side of each valve indicating the direction of the flow of water.
  • Local building codes may require the inclusion of a back flow prevention device when using valves other than anti-siphon valves. Check with your local building inspector or municipality for details.

    Availability: In Stock

    These pre-assembled, Teflon-taped and ready-to-use valve assemblies include a high-quality 3/4" Baccara AC valve and all of the parts needed to connect directly to your faucet. The manifold start assembly (TMBVHST) is the base assembly and includes the parts to connect one valve to your faucet. Extra valves can easily be added by removing the end cap and using the add-on assembly (TMBVHAD). The outlet of each valve is already adapted to male hose threads and ready to connect to a drip system.

    All you need is a direct burial wire and wire connectors to connect these valve assemblies to your AC timer. A constant pressure filter and pressure limit valve can also be added to the manifold start assembly, see the illustration in the details tab below.
