Orbit sprinkler valves are designed for automated irrigation systems and are controlled by a computerized timer box. Manual operation is also possible when it is necessary to test the valves after repairs have been made or for sprinkler maintenance checks. Because the normal irrigation cycle may occur when you're not home, manual operation gives you the chance to make sure everything is working smoothly. The valves can be operated manually from the timer box or while standing at the valve.
