The Rain Check is indispensable in all automatic irrigation systems for residential use. It monitors rainfall levels and automatically overrides
the controller to prevent unnecessary irrigation cycles.
Features and Benefits:
Works with all 24 VAC controllers for maximum versatility.
Does not change irrigation programs, but automatically interrupts watering cycle when rainfall exceeds pre-selected level. Automatic return to normal watering.
Water in rain collector pan evaporates faster than soil moisture to permit watering if required.
Easy to install with adjustable mounting base.
Collector pan can be removed for cleaning.
Adjustable stainless steel sensing probes offer the flexibility
of triggering the rain shutoff with as little as 1/8"
(3,2 mm) of precipitation or when rainfall reaches or exceeds
1/2" (12,6 mm).
UV resistant plastic construction increases operating
life in harsh environments.
Solid-state design provides greater reliability by eliminating
micro switches and thermal devices which may rust and/or
wear out.
