Description

Let the Rain Do the Watering!

Why run your sprinklers when Mother Nature has already switched on the tap? The RainPoint Wireless Smart Rain Sensor helps prevent unnecessary watering by automatically pausing your compatible irrigation system when rainfall is detected.

Designed to work with compatible RainPoint smart irrigation timers and controllers, this wireless sensor detects rainfall and signals your irrigation system to stop scheduled watering. Once the sensor dries, it automatically resets so your normal watering routine can resume.

Key Features

  • Automatic rain detection: Detects rainfall and signals your compatible irrigation controller to pause watering.
  • Four sensitivity settings: Select a rainfall threshold of 3mm, 6mm, 13mm or 19mm.
  • Automatic reset: Resumes normal operation once the internal absorbent element dries.
  • Adjustable recovery time: The ventilation adjustment ring controls drying speed.
  • Wireless operation: No sensor signal cable running between the sensor and compatible controller.
  • Water-saving functionality: Helps avoid unnecessary watering during rainy weather.
  • Outdoor installation: Mount the sensor in a suitable position where it can detect rainfall.

Four Adjustable Rainfall Sensitivity Levels

  • 3mm: More sensitive detection for light rainfall.
  • 6mm: Suitable for moderate rainfall thresholds.
  • 13mm: Allows more rainfall before irrigation is paused.
  • 19mm: Higher rainfall threshold for different watering requirements.

Automatic Watering Pause and Recovery

When rainfall reaches the selected sensitivity level, the sensor activates and signals your compatible irrigation system to pause watering. Its internal absorbent element gradually dries after rainfall. Once dry, the sensor automatically resets so your normal watering schedule can continue.

Designed for use with selected RainPoint smart irrigation products, including compatible:

  • Smart 1-Zone Irrigation Timers
  • Smart 2-Zone Irrigation Timers
  • Smart 4-Zone Irrigation Timers
