That’s really confounding for me, I think I’d need to see it

Comment on Vigoro 3015V Sprinkler Timer Internals and Valve Design by JonC.

That’s really confounding for me, I think I’d need to see it in person to figure it out because it doesn’t operate like any I’ve seen before. I put my timer unit on the scope and there was nothing fancy, just a quick spike each time it switched.

How much airflow do you need to be able to move through this valve? Do you need a valve with that large of an intake and outlet? You could trying checking out products similar to Clippard Minimatic or STC Valves and also do a Google search for ‘electric pneumatic valves’ or ‘solenoid valves’ to get started then try to find a ‘latching’ type valve so you don’t have to keep your power on all the time. Might even be able to find a useful sponsor on this page for valves, being a valve page and all.

Hope that helps to get you started.
