Orbit 57065 Brass Automatic Anti-Siphon Valve with Flow Control

safeguarding your irrigation and water supply with a smart, reliable anti-siphon valve. Built around a durable brass body and an atmospheric vacuum breaker, this model is designed to prevent backflow while offering precise flow control for residential landscapes, professional installations, and growers. With an inline forward flow design and a 24 VAC solenoid, it integrates smoothly with most irrigation controllers and sits above ground on risers for easy access and maintenance. An integrated scrubber filter helps keep the internal passages clear, reducing the chance of clogs and ensuring steady operation when the system is in use.

This valve is commonly used in California for backflow prevention and is compatible with major 24 VAC controller brands. For best results, consider pairing it with B-hyve controllers and PVC-Lock fittings to streamline installation and optimize water use. The valve is intended for outdoor, cold-water irrigation applications and should be positioned at least 6 inches above the highest head in the controlled zone to maintain proper flow and accessibility.
