Description
Valve box IRRITEC rectangular
Good planning is half the battle
Prepare a suitably large hole for your valve box during construction. Fill at least 1/3 of this hole with gravel or similar and place your valve box in this gravel bed. The valve box for holding your distribution unit is open at the bottom - for good reason. For example, water that enters when it rains can easily drain away or seep into the gravel bed. It is also advantageous if, for example, the valve shaft is located in a general gravel area.
Quality and features:
- Highly impact-resistant plastic in a sturdy design
- Valve box housing, open at the bottom: black and green lid
- Polypropylene resistant to UV radiation; suitable for high temperatures
- Resistant to chemicals and corrosion-free
- waterproof and functional in all weather conditions.
- optimum fit: no dirt or grass between housing and lid
- easy access to fittings thanks to large interior
- secure lid locking with screw (a socket wrench is required to open and close)
- beveled lid edges protect against possible damage from lawn mowers
Putting the valve box cover on correctly - simply explained

Step 1
Place the cover at an angle so that the side with the internal barb sits in the valve shaft and the side with the screw lock points upwards.

Step 2
The green barb lock of the cover will already engage in the cover housing and cannot be damaged when the cover is fully engaged.

Step 3
Press the side with the screw lock into the recess in the valve box body and pull the screw upwards if necessary.

Step 4
Done - Secure your fittings in the valve shaft by screwing in the locking screw to prevent vandalism. You will need a socket wrench for this.

Not like this!
If the cover is pressed in on both sides, there is a risk of the retaining barb on the underside of the cover breaking off.
Extension for standard Irritec valve box
Two elevations are available for the Irritec standard valve box, which can theoretically be elevated endlessly, although the earth pressure must be taken into account.
Elevation for Jumbo Irritec valve box
The elevation for the Jumbo valve box from Irritec raises the box by 168 mm. Theoretically, the valve box can be raised endlessly, whereby the earth pressure must be taken into account.
