More Info

The Irrigander 8 Expander is comprised of two modules: an Encoder that is installed close to the sprinkler controller; a Decoder that is installed close to the valves to be controlled. The field control wires attached to the irrigation controller's output controlling the valves to be expanded are disconnected and 3 field wires are connected to the 3 outputs on the Irrigander 8 Expander's Encoder. The 8 inputs to the Encoder are connected to any available 8 irrigation controller outputs. The 3 field wires plus the system wide common are connected to the Decoder and the outputs from the decoder are connected to the valves to be controlled. With more than 4 field wires, the Irrigander 8 Expander will use 3 field wires and the system common to control 8 valves allowing the additional wires to be used for additional valves.

Specifications

  • Power Requirements: 24-30 VAC provided by the irrigation controller
  • Power consumption: idling 0.3 watts; operating: 1.5 watt max
  • Supported Irrigation Controllers: Virtually any irrigation controller that uses 24 VAC valves and a common on the output can be used.
  • Supported Irrigation Valves: Virtually any 24 VAC irrigation valve can be used with the Irrigander 8 expander.
  • Valves per Zone: Each output from the Irrigander 8 expander Decoder is designed to drive a maximum of one valve.
  • Simultaneous Active Zones: The Irrigander 8 expander can only have one output active at a time. If more than one input is active, the Irrigander 8 expander will only activate one output zone.
  • Encoder Environmental Operating: 0°C to +50°C (+32°F to +122°F) Non-Operating: -40°C to +70°C (-40°F to +158°F) The Encoder is not waterproof; enclose the Encoder unit in a suitable weather proof enclosure if installed outdoors.
  • Decoder Environmental Operating: -20°C to +50°C (-4°F to +122°F) Non-Operating: -40°C to +70°C (-40°F to +158°F) The Decoder is designed for harsh environments and is suitable for most outdoor conditions including wet environments. However the decoder should not be placed where it is operated continuously under water.
