NODE with Solar Panel oPtion

Reliable Battery-Operated Control without the Need of an Electrical Connection

 

For isolated sites, power-restricted areas, or the special needs of drip zones, the hunter node is the smart, reliable solution. the node mounts to a valve solenoid quickly and easily, and without screws, drills or additional wires. the unit’s solid construction and waterproof exterior ensure it can handle the harsh environment of a valve box. once placed in a valve box, the node is operated by one or two 9V batteries, which provide standard or extended power throughout the season. along with exceptional reliability, the node features an easy-to-program lCD screen, the ability to control a Master Valve, and uses standard hunter controller programming with 3 programs and 4 start times per program. the array of programming options and rugged reliability make the node a compact, but powerful irrigation controller with the flexibility of battery power.

The node’s optional Solar Panel Kit (SPnoDe) eliminates the need for batteries and provides maintenance-free operation by harnessing the sun’s energy. once connected, the Solar Panel supplies 100% of the controllers’ power, and eliminates the alkaline batteries. this “eco-innovations” alternative is more environmentally friendly and allows for maintenance-free operation of the controller.

 

1        Versatile: Models range from 1 to 6 stations with an array of features

2         Waterproof: the node can function in up to 3.5 meters of water

3         Solar Power Option: Select the Solar Panel Kit for maintenance free operation
