Netafim Series 80 2-Way Electric Globe Valve - 3/4-in - 24VAC - 0.01-26 GPM

Automated Water Control for Irrigation Zones - 3/4-in

Manual valves make zone-by-zone watering slow and inconsistent. This 2-way electric globe valve opens and closes from a 24VAC signal, so a controller can run your irrigation schedule. A 150-mesh stainless steel filter screen helps keep debris from interfering with operation, and the body is glass-reinforced nylon.

The 3/4-in size suits mid-sized irrigation zones and hydroponic water lines, from a regular indoor grower's feed manifold to a section of a larger commercial system. It is sold individually, so you can buy one valve per zone.

Key Features & Benefits

• 24VAC electric operation — connects to a controller for automated scheduling.
• 150-mesh stainless steel filter screen — screens out particles before they reach the valve seat.
• Glass-reinforced nylon body and bonnet — gives the valve a tough housing for demanding conditions.
• Nylon-reinforced Buna-N diaphragm — provides a durable sealing element.
• Stainless steel spring and hardware — resists corrosion in wet environments.

Who Should Use Netafim Series 80 Electric Globe Valve

Growers who automate irrigation zones with a 24VAC controller, in hydroponic systems, greenhouses or commercial cultivation rooms, will find this valve useful. It is also a fit for home gardeners adding automated zones to an existing line.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What voltage does this valve need?
A: It operates on 24VAC. Use a controller or transformer that supplies 24VAC to the solenoid.

Q: What does 2-way mean?
A: A 2-way valve has one inlet and one outlet. It either allows water through or blocks it.

Q: What is a globe valve?
A: A globe valve controls flow with a closing element that seats against an internal port. In this electric version, a signal operates it instead of a hand wheel.

Q: What flow range does it handle?
A: The listed maximum is 26 GPM. Sources list the minimum flow differently, so check the product sheet before sizing for very low flow.

Q: Does it include a filter?
A: Yes. It has a 150-mesh stainless steel filter screen. Mesh screens still need periodic inspection depending on your water quality.

Q: Can I use it in a hydroponic system?
A: It is intended for water control in irrigation lines. Confirm that your fittings and nutrient solution suit the valve materials before installing.
