- Manual timed "water-now" button for 10, 30 or 60 minutes for watering at any time
The majority of gardeners prefer to water at sunrise or sunset. It’s the best time to minimise water evaporation and leaf scorch, but it is not always convenient to do it yourself at these times of the day.
Day Light Sensor The Hozelock Sensor Plus Controller takes care of this for you as it includes a day light sensor that automatically adjusts your watering schedule to start at sunrise and sunset, with a choice of daily operating schedules.
No need to programme ever again, it will automatically change the start times to coincide with sunrise and sunset as the seasons change.
Watering Schedule You can select from watering duration of 2, 5, 10, 20, 30 or 60 minutes and is easy to adjust in case you need to react to changing weather conditions, without ever having to refer back to the instruction book.
The watering schedule can be set to operate every day for hot and dry conditions and has adjustable settings to reduce watering down to every 2 days, every 3 days, every 5 days or once a week for plants that require less water.
Water Now If you need to dispense water outside of the automatic schedule you can use the Water Now button to turn on the water. Press the button to select watering for a 10, 30 or 60 minute duration. Simply press again to cancel the operation for shorter periods.
Battery Status Simply press the button to check the status of the batteries. The LED lights will illuminate to indicate the strength of the remaining battery life.
If the unit is not working correctly, please check for low battery power by holding the button in. The vertical row of lights will indicate the following:
- 3 green lights on: Full battery power available
- 2 green lights on: Medium battery power available
- 1 green light on: Low battery power so time to replace the batteries. The timer will probably only work in manual mode but the light sensor will not open the valve.
- Red lights: Replace batteries. Average battery life is maximum 8 months, used twice a day.
Failure Prevention Mode A built in safety feature detects when the battery levels have dropped to a level that could fail whilst a watering schedule is in progress. The LED indicator lights will flash red when the batteries need to be replaced.
Easy to Install The Sensor Controller is easy to set up. Simply insert 2 x AA batteries (not supplied) and then select the required watering pattern from the dial. No complex programming skills required. It is supplied with a choice of 21mm (1/2” BSP), 26.5mm (¾” BSP) or 33.3mm (1” BSP) adaptors for connection to most garden taps.
Versatile Usage The Sensor Controller is a versatile unit that can be used with Garden Sprinklers up to 10 Bar water pressure (1000kPa or 140PSI)), and for low pressure micro irrigation watering with 1.5 Bar (150kPa), or Water Butts or tanks with very low 1m head pressure of 0.1 Bar (10kPa), due to the unique ball valve component.
