Quoted from "seansy59"

Well. I found this one:

I don't know about the website or seller.

Replacement Irritol 311A



But Rainbird makes a similar looking one. I don't know about the piping in between the flow in/out though.

Rain Bird 100-ASVF



See what the experts have to say first........

Many thanks for the link Seansy59..................Ray

Quoted from "Wet_Boots"

Since the entire operating portion of a 311A can be unthreaded from the body, it can be replaced with another "converter" assembly. The easiest one to lay hands on can be the Lawn Genie L1010, which is really an industry-standard Richdel design.

The reason for this interchangeability, is that the 311A is a plastic copy of the old industry standard brass valve. Everybody made converters for them

Many thanks for this information, it should make my job of maintenance much easier!!.........Ray

===================================

Good morning wet_boots, I looked into the Lawn Genie L1010 valve adapter and it appears that it is for brass valves and the L2010 is for plastic valves. Is this correct?

Many thanks, Ray
