How Do Rain Sensors Work?
Rain sensors are automated devices that shut off your lawn irrigation system every time it rains at all or a designated amount. These sensors are mounted outdoors away from any overhead obstructions to allow the sensor to collect rainwater.
The main 5 advantages of a rain sensor:
- Conserve Water (Save up to 45% on your water bill)
- Prevent Disease Damage and Nutrient Loss
- Save Money on Fertilizer
- Increase the Life-Span of your Irrigation System
- Prevent Groundwater and Waterways Pollution
Rain sensors work mainly in three ways. First, is by using a collection cup where the water is collected then weighed. The weight of the water will break the electrical connection to the pump of sprinkler valves. Second, rainfall is again collected in a cup but instead of weighing the water an electrode is used to measure the amount on rainwater. The third method is an expansion disc made of cork. When enough rainfall hits the cork it expands until it triggers the break mechanism. Irrigating a landscape during a rainstorm not only results in oversaturated plants and turf, it also wastes water. Hunter’s Mini Clik rain sensor provides the simplest, most effective way to prevent sprinklers from running during or after any level of rainfall. It easily installs on any automatic irrigation system. Once the storm passes, the Mini-Clik allows the controller to resume normal irrigation.
