|
|
Primary
Applications:
Indoor electromechanical controller for residential use.
Ideal for areas subject to either electrical storm activity or power surges, as
well as applications where programming ease is essential.
Features and
Benefits:
- Independent station timing knobs make this controller the
easiest to program, read, and understand.
- Electromechanical design for best reliability and
electrical surge resistance.
- 24-hour clock (automatic starts on any hour except
midnight) allows automatic irrigation cycles day or night and provides for
multiple, repeat cycles.
- Easy, at-a-glance programming provides a visual display of
the watering schedule.
- Master valve/remote pump start circuit for optimal
irrigation control.
- External, plug-in transformer (U.S./Canada) provides
convenient installation.
- Front panel-mounted fuse for easy access and quick
diagnostics.
- Quick-connect plug on front panel for ease of installation.
- Indoor-mount cabinet for clean-looking, professional
installation.
- Latch accepts padlock for greater security.
- Compact size saves space. Master on/off switch allows
shutdown for rain, winter season, and maintenance.
- UL Listed; CSA, CE
approved.
