Product Literature
Low head drainage can be seen in an elevation change of fewer than six inches. The resulting runo and water waste
can lead to landscape erosion, unsafe conditions on hardscapes and sidewalks, and pooling around spray heads. The
Toro Precision
™
Check Valve saves water and eliminates runo by immediately sealing the spray head at its connection
point at the end of the irrigation cycle, thereby preventing the draining of lateral lines through the lowest-lying heads.
Hold Back Strength of Up to 15 Feet
Capable of compensating for elevation changes in a zone of up to
15 feet, the Precision
™
Check Valve (PCV) eliminates issues with low
head drainage and the resulting water waste.
Spring-Actuated Design
Spring actuation ensures an immediate check when the irrigation
cycle ends.
Low Profile
With an overall profile of just under 1
1
/4” cubic inches, the PCV-500
adds less than
3
/8” of height to retrofitted spray heads and can be
retrofit to side inlet spray heads with minimal digging. The low profile
design makes the PCV-500 ideal for turf or slope applications.
A Universal Fit
Featuring
1
/2
” NPT threads, the PCV fits all major manufacturers’
spray bodies and fittings.
