## Overview

The Orbit 57280 3/4" FPT L-Series Automatic Sprinkler Valve delivers reliable, clog-resistant water flow control for residential irrigation.

Perfect for smart irrigation setups aiming to conserve water without sacrificing performance.

## Description

The Orbit L-Series 3/4 in. FPT automatic inline sprinkler valve (model 57280) is the standard valve in Orbit heavy-duty preassembled manifolds and one of the most widely used inline valves in residential irrigation.This valve has 3/4 in. female pipe thread (FPT) connections on both ends. It is not compatible with standard garden hose threads. If your system requires 1 in. FPT, order model 57281.Note for customers replacing an older green Orbit valve: the L-Series body is slightly shorter than earlier green Orbit models such as the 57100. When swapping in-ground, plan for a short pipe extension to bridge the difference.The 24 VAC solenoid is compatible with all major irrigation controllers. Manual actuation requires only a quarter turn of the solenoid. Do not turn beyond 1/4 turn, as overtightening can unseat the O-ring and cause leaks at the solenoid. Four captured screws stay in the lid during service, and an internal scrubber filter keeps the diaphragm clog-free. The solenoid is field-replaceable without removing the valve body. Rated to 120 PSI.A soft-close design reduces water hammer. Fail-safe operation closes the valve if power is lost, preventing unintended flooding. Made in the USA with global parts. For outdoor irrigation use with cold water only.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can i connect a garden hose to another garden hose through this unit or do i need an adapter?  is it just a ght gender-reversing adapter?**
A: I have this valve connected to a garden faucet using this adapter:  https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B007D5KFOG/
That converts this valve's NPTF threads to GHT.
From the other end of this valve, I connect back to some drip system components using this adapter:  https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00489Y9MO/

**Q: Just installed a new valve and it works but buzzes pretty loud when its working.  Is that normal?**
A: The list two replacements buzzed noticeably more than earlier models of this same valve. Mine are now two seasons old and continue to function well, albeit still buzzing.

**Q: Can it be powered directly by a 24v transformer (https://amazon.com/dp/b000vryvys) connected to a z-wave switch (https://amazon.com/dp/b075p1nc6s)?**
A: Yes, but how are you going to time it? It will be open as long as power is on..

**Q: will this replace orbit solenoid 57039-57?**
A: Yes

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ These work well for a while.
*by K***R on August 15, 2020*

We live in the "high desert" of CA, annual rainfall is about 10", and that is mostly in the winter. I put together a 6 manifold system. The controller has a glitch, it won't let you program #5 and #6 unless you start with #1 and reset (or maintain) the settings and just go in order. I have them in a little shelter so they do not get any sun and are at an easy hight to work with. They all worked for the first six month growing season. Two did not survive the winter, although I thought I had drained all of system. I replaced them. NONE of them survived the second winter although after I turned the water supply off, I left the system on for a day to be sure it drained the valves. Two will not turn off, 4 will not turn on. I did all the things the on-line fixers recommended, even buying 2 new solinoids, which did not solve the problem. So, I am buying new ones, same model, since they will be easy to plumb in, I think this winter I will take them out of the system and put them where freezing is not an issue, and put a drop of oil on the solinoid. The cost is small compared to the value of vegetables we grow, let alone the flowers and shrubs. My experience with Chinese products is that quality control is missing, so sometimes you get a good one, sometimes you do not - 10 electronic things failed in my new Audi - all made in China - in the first 50,000 miles, none of the replacements have failed in the second 50,000 miles. 3 of the 6 have failed, and, and 3 are going into their next season. Well drained when turned off, no water in lines in or out.
