Hunter Industries PGP12CV 12 Inch Pop-up Rotor Check Valve

Product Description

The HUNTER INDUSTRIES PGP12CV is a 12-inch pop-up rotary sprinkler head with an integrated check valve, designed for professional irrigation system installation and service. The 12-inch pop-up height allows the nozzle to clear dense turf and groundcover during operation, then retract flush when the zone shuts off. The built-in check valve prevents low-head drainage, stopping water from seeping out of heads at lower elevations after each cycle. This rotor is installed by licensed irrigation contractors and landscape professionals on commercial and residential properties.

The PGP12CV is suited for medium to large turf areas where consistent coverage and elevation clearance are needed. The 3/4-inch inlet connection makes it compatible with standard lateral line sizes commonly used in commercial irrigation design. Its check valve feature is especially useful on sloped terrain or in systems where elevation changes between heads would otherwise cause low-head drainage and erosion between irrigation cycles.

Key Features

• 12-inch pop-up height clears tall turf and dense groundcover during operation
• Integrated check valve prevents low-head drainage on sloped or tiered systems
• 3/4-inch inlet for compatibility with standard commercial lateral line sizing
• Retracts flush to grade when zone is off, reducing mowing interference and trip hazards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation rotor for professional irrigation systems utilizing 3/4-inch threaded lateral connections and requiring a 12-inch pop-up height.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified irrigation contractor in accordance with local plumbing and irrigation codes. Shut off the irrigation zone and relieve system pressure before removing or installing any rotor head. Use thread seal tape on all threaded connections and verify the inlet thread size matches the lateral line fitting before tightening. Confirm check valve function after installation by running the zone and observing that heads at lower elevations do not drain after the zone shuts off.
