Irrigation Controller (Lithium battery-operated)

The controller shall be a solid state irrigation controller powered lithium batteries. The vandal and water resistant controller is enclosed in a powder coated, commercial grade metal enclosure. A stainless steel enclosure or pedestal is also available to house said controller. The panel has an easy to read display rated for high temperatures up to 158 degrees Fahrenheit. The controller shall operate in an outdoor setting (in extreme heat or cold) and power latching solenoid actuators. The Enercon can operate valves up to 3,000 feet (6,000 foot loop) with 12 gauge or 2,000 feet (4,000 foot loop) with 14 gauge irrigation wire. If the SSPED Stainless Steel Pedestal is specified then the galvanized pipe is not applicable.
