Hello everyone, I was wondering if I would use the "generic valve" input for a 3/4 Orbit Water Master Sprinkler valve that is modded with a 1/4" blowgun with no dead space. Cause the sprinkler valve is modified with a blowgun attached by a nipple right to the sprinkler valve. So what would i put for a valve seat diameter? and the dead volume, flow eff., and dwell time?

Any help would be appreciated! :D

Sure, you could do that. But considering that the Orbit Water Master is explicetly discussed on the GGDT webpage, I'd think you a fool should you choose to use "generic valve."
