Richdel 711A Valve Rebuild

Can anyone tell me if there is a rebuild kit readily available out there for a Richdel 711A valve?

Thank you,
Mike

What parts are available? I need a diaphram, needle, solenoid, solenoid o-ring and the rubber that the needle sits in...unsure what that is called.

All the necessary parts for the electric-valve portion of the R711 can be had in a new Irritrol 205TF valve. As for the vacuum breaker part, that's tougher. The poppet from their currently-produced 2711APR antisyphon valve might fit.
