mine came normally closed. had to apply voltage to open it
This is a common problem in areas with sandy soil especially. Sand works it's way into the valve and settles around the diaphragm keeping it slightly open and allowing water to seep through. Because they make a replacement diaphragm available at little cost it tells me access to the diaphragm will allow you to open it up and if sand is there clean the diaphragm area, put it back together and try it. Good luck; hope to see this worked or failed to help! I have had to clean mine a couple times over the past 18 years.
depends on GPM at your source.
The photo is deceiving. You do not need to cut the wires.
Yes as long as you use water tight connection
Mine was installed vertically with solenoid horizontal with no problems.
it opens fairly quickly. I did sense about a 2 second delay or so between my controller's manual mode and when it started. It is a bit faster if you use the manual control on the valve. I think the controller is responsible for the extra delay.
That's what happened to our system that's 19 years old. Some valves wouldn't open on random days when the controller was operating it's normal morning cycle. We replaced all 6 valves in our system last week & the system functions properly now!
guess you would have to add a short length of the appropriate diameter hose to the barb, and then get a barb to NPT adapter to get you back to pipe size.
No, all residential clocks are 24 volt output.
