HUNTER ICV VALVES: The Hunter ICV Series Irrigation Valve: An Industrial Strength Plastic Sprinkler Valve that Offers Superior Durability
The Hunter ICV sprinkler valve is a prime example of today's technological capabilities. This new irrigation valve is as rugged, durable and reliable as any commercial sprinkler valve on the market, even those made of solid brass. And that's something that will astound those who thought that a plastic sprinkler valve could never make that claim. The Hunter ICV can consistently withstand a pressure rating of up to 200 psi and can handle the continual hammering that such forces will produce. Designed to handle the wide range of conditions that different commercial sites will bring; this irrigation valve offers a fabric reinforced diaphragm that provides flow control as a standard feature. In addition; the Hunter ICV is extremely easy to service; since the valve's bonnet fasteners can be loosened and tightened using a variety of common contractor tools. For a long-lasting valve that can deliver reliable performance at commercial sites; this is the heavy duty workhorse you're after.

Aren’t filters supposed to keep dirt and other contaminants out of your sprinkler valve? Most filters can and do keep out the big stuff; but it’s the microscopic particles like minerals and algae that can build up over time and lead to premature failure of the irrigation valve.
The Hunter ICV standard filter has four times the surface area of some manufacturers’ valves. That can be a great start for keeping clean the water that travels up into the valve bonnet. However; even these large filters can still become clogged by large amounts of debris found in dirty water – that is; reclaimed water; wells; lakes; ponds and the like.
With the ICV Filter Sentry™ cleaning system; the filter is scoured clean by a wiper seal as it slides up the filter when the valve opens. The wiper continues to provide scrubbing action on the upper part of the filter during valve operation. The ICV Filter Sentry always strokes the full length of the filter; independent of flow control adjustments. Other self-cleaning filter systems are restricted in their cleaning ability when the diaphragm travel height above the body seat is restricted due to any flow control adjustments.
ICV Filter Sentry can be factory installed when an ICV is purchased or installers and maintenance personnel can add the unit to an existing ICV; quickly and easily out in the field.
Excellent in these dirty water situations; ICV Filter Sentry can give your valve extra insurance in “clean water” applications; as well.
