The rain detector is designed to work with irrigation controllers with a voltage of max. 24V AC to eliminate unnecessary irrigation during rainy weather. The detector is equipped with five head positions. It can work with most low-voltage 24V controllers, e.g.: GB6964C, GB6968C, GB6991C, GBK3504TR, GBK3506TR with normal-short-circuit (NC) connections. Cooperation with the 9V GB6980C controller in the version with a mini-jack socket (only versions produced since 2017) is possible after the user solders the mono mini-jack plug (the plug is not included in the set). The detector does not work with controllers with the detector input 'normally open'. The detector works on the principle of a mechanical switch, which is switched on by specially prepared spacer discs enlarging under the influence of moisture. During rainfall and a few hours after its completion, the controller contacts change position and remain open. Changing the position of the contacts controls the operation of the irrigation controller or directly the operation of the valves, cutting off the current supply to them.
