Temporary Operation of AC Powered
Irrigation Systems During
Power Interruption...
Keep the existing landscape irrigated while
making electrical repairs
There are times when a “simple” wiring repair
stretches into a few days of work. In the heat
of summer those few days may spell doom
to the plant material attached to those zones
under repair. To solve the problem, install a
battery-powered controller on those zones and
keep everything watered while the repair is
being completed.
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The Hunter Smart Valve Controller...
Providing reliable control without the need
of an electric power source
If an area is not getting irrigated simply
because of the high cost associated with
getting wires from the controller to the valves,
Hunter provides the ideal economical answer
that allows automatic operation of your
irrigation system without the need for a direct
connection to an electrical power source.
The Smart Valve Controller mounts to a
valve solenoid quickly and easily — without
screws, drills or wires! — and the SVCʼs solid
construction ensures that it can handle the
harsh environment of a valve box. This rugged
product is fully submersible and resists all
moisture intrusion in water, mud and debris as
deep as 12 feet.
But brawn isnʼt all this controller has to
offer. Operating off a single 9-volt bat tery
thatʼs guaranteed to provide power to activate
the valve through a full season, exceptional
reliability is a key feature, as well.
Itʼs also a breeze to program. With an easy
to read and understand LCD display and
easy to understand programming buttons,
this unit is as easy to program as other
Hunter Controllers. Providing up to nine
start times, and run times up to 4 hours, the
SVC controller is  exible enough to handle
schedules needed for standard irrigation
practices as well as the scheduling demands
needed for applications such as establishing
newly seeded turf or irrigating steep slopes with
no runoff.
For isolated sites or power-restricted areas,
and for the special needs of drip zones, the
new Hunter Smart Valve Controller is your
alternate power solution.
PRODUCT FEATURES
AND BENEFITS
Single or Multiple Valve
Operation Without Power...
Simple control for valve operation
For single station valve operation
in the absence of standard electrical
power, the Hunter SVC-100 is the
answer. The multi-station SVC-400 permits
automatic control of up to 4 zone valves.
These battery-powered controllers are just
one more of the latest in a long history
of quality irrigation products our
customers have requested.
Guaranteed One or More Full
Seasons of Operation Without
Battery Replacement...
9-volt battery-powered
Whereas some battery-powered controllers
require up to 3 different batteries, the Hunter
SVC uses only one 9-volt battery, which will
easily power it for at least one full irrigation
season. Even if your irrigation schedule
requires the Hunter SVC controller to provide
power to each valve to irrigate 9 times
each day, the battery in the Hunter SVC
controller will power the valve
for a full season.
