The Sprinkler Valve (PDF File)

[MrCrowley]

For those who spend their life trying to post a topic worthy of the almighty sticky, this is how you do it.

Nice stuff hubb

[YEAHADD16]

i actually found something good here on Spudfiles, thanks for the info though

[jitup]

What do you mean actually? there is a lot of great info within this forum, you just have to look for it.

[john bunsenburner]

Not even, the info is right infront of you, barely any searching is needed for the important stuff...

[ALIHISGREAT]

i can't extract it! halp!

"Cannot extract file, info may be corrupt!"

Hmm.. you trying to slip me a trojan homeboy? haha

Please fix! I'm interested with your findings.

Cheers! 8)

Do you have any more pictures of your homemade diaphram? Id like to try this on JANET........

I've been meaning to take the time to disassemble my valve and snap some photos. When I do (probably over the weekend), I'll update the e-book with photos. I was just too anxious to put this out there for you guys.

Also, I've been working on another method of further modification. It will be added in the book as well.

Thanks for all the positive responses, guys. And, yes, a lot of the info in this book can be found right here at Spudfiles. As mentioned, just search.

I just downloaded the zip file and it extracted fine for me. I zipped it using WinAce (it zips and extracts everything) if that helps any.

I really wan to read this but no matter what I do it says "the compressed (zipped) folder is invalid or corrupted." Could someone paste it into a PM for me?

I had a problem with unzipping it with Windows' own unzip tool, but I managed it with WinRAR.

For people who are having problems and don't have another unzip tool, I've rehosted it on Mediafire here:

Of course, if hubb017 has a problem with my hosting of it as such, I'll happily take it down, but this makes it a little easier for people without an unzip tool that can open the pdf.

Well I do.

JK. I posted it here so folks could see it. You did me a favor. Thanks.

So are there any others to mod a sprinkler valve other than replace the diaghram and pneumatic actuation?

[Hubb]

I've got a few ideas I'm tossing around right now. When I perfect them, I'll put them in this book.

Also, I'll zip it using WinZip, so there should not be any issues of extraction for most of you guys.

[john bunsenburner]

If we are all so into sprinkers i shall join in: Everybody says somethig else so i guess i will ask here: What is the max pressure of the average sprinkler or will it iffer from kind to kind/ it be written on the package?

[Hubb]

Normally, the pressures will be written on the package, however, this is the max pressure for water, not air. But it gives a good starting point.

I've taken mine (a 3/4" Oribt Watermaster and a 1" Rainbird) both to 120psi with no problems.

[john bunsenburner]

120psi being alot?
