Solar Powered Irrigation Controller

This single-station, solar-powered controller with a two-wire DC, latching solenoid is available on a 3/4′′ or 1” heavy-duty anti-siphon valve for use in residential and commercial applications. Powered by a photovoltaic module with a patented microelectronic energy management system, the LEIT 1 requires no batteries or direct sunlight to operate. It needs to be installed above ground level in any location where there is ambient light. Distinguished among the LEIT- 1 features are the 20 preset monthly historical Evapotranspiration (ET) programs for spray heads and drip irrigation. Includes an editing feature that can be used as part of the controller programming.
