WIRING THE ELECTRIC VALVES
• If the distance between the timer and valves
is less than 300 m, use 1 mm
more protection wires can be pulled
through PVC pipe and buried underground. Be
careful to avoid burying the wires in locations
where they could be damaged by digging or
trenching in the future.
• Each valve has two wires. One wire is to be
connected as the common. The common wires
for all the valves can be connected together to
one common wire
2 wire. However, for
going to the timer. The other valve wire is to be
connected to the specifi c station wire that will
control that valve
(Note: Only one wire can be installed into each
terminal. If more than two common wires are
used in your system, splice several together
so only one wire runs into each of the COM
terminals. Protect the splice connection with a
wire nut.)
CONNECTING VALVE WIRES TO THE
TIMER
• Remove the terminal compartment cover.
• Strip _" (6mm) of the plastic insulation off the
end of each wire.
• Determine which valve you want to connect to
which station. Connect each
valve wire to its station terminal (labeled 1-6) by
inserting the bare wire fully into
the terminal.
