Orbit Orbit 57281 Underground Sprinkler Electric In-line Straight Valve, 1 In.

The Orbit 57281 is an electric in-line straight valve designed for underground sprinkler irrigation systems. This valve installs below ground within your PVC piping network and connects via a 1 inch NPT threaded connection, allowing fast, glueless assembly with standard components. It works with standard 24V residential sprinkler systems and serves as a replacement for automatic valves from major brands.

Built for reliability and durability in below-ground applications, this inline valve is engineered to handle the constant moisture and underground conditions of permanent irrigation installations. Its compact, low-profile design fits into tight spaces and valve boxes. The manual on/off bypass lever gives you emergency control when needed, and a self-cleaning filter ensures consistent water delivery throughout the irrigation season.
