Hunter Industries products

The Solar Sync ET sensor is an advanced weather sensor that calculates evapotranspiration (ET) and adjusts Hunter controllers daily based on local weather conditions. Solar Sync measures sunlight and temperature, and uses ET to determine the correct seasonal adjustment percentage value to send to the controller. The controller then uses its programmed run time and adjusts to Solar Sync’s seasonal adjustment value to modify the actual irrigation run time for that day. In addition, the Solar Sync ET sensor integrates Hunter’s popular Rain-Clik™ and Freeze-Clik® sensors providing quick response in shutting down your irrigation system during rain and/or freezing conditions. The Solar Sync is compatible with most Hunter controllers and applicable to residences, businesses, and municipalities alike.

The Hunter ET System is an easy-to-add accessory for Pro-C and PCC controllers. Using highly advanced technology, the Hunter ET System measures key climatic conditions to calculate local evapotranspiration (ET) factors. ET is a measurement of the water lost from the soil surface by evaporation and the moisture lost from the plants by transpiration. The ET System will calculate irrigation schedules to replenish only the water that is actually needed for plant and soil conditions. The Hunter WiltGard™ technology can intervene to trigger protective watering when extreme conditions threaten vegetation. The result is a dramatic savings in water, healthier root zones, and longer plant life.

The Soil-Clik simplifies soil moisture sensing. The Soil-Clik probe uses proven technology to measure moisture within the root zone. When the probe senses that the soil has reached its desired moisture level, it will shut down irrigation, preventing water waste. Soil-Clik has two components: A moisture sensor probe, which is placed in the soil, and an electronic module, which communicates with the probe and the controller. The probe is easy to install – simply bury it to the correct root depth for your plant material. It can be placed up to 1000 feet from the controller. Easy push button operation allows adjustments to the desired moisture level, with an immediate update of actual measurements.
