PGA-IVM Series
Best in Class Valves with Preinstalled IVM-SOL
Rain Bird PGA Series valves are now available with the Integrated Valve Module "smart solenoid" (IVM-SOL) preinstalled. The new IVM Smart Valves, when paired with the ESP-LXIVM Two-Wire controller, eliminate decoders resulting in 50% fewer wire splices, which reduces system cost and improves reliability. During operation, the IVM-SOL provides two-way communication between the valve and controller to provide advanced diagnostic capability and faster response time.
