Long Range Wireless Irrigation/Lighting Controller
Control/monitor anything in your home and out in your yard with our Next Gen controller.
Traditionally, the irrigation system consists of a controller (clock) with terminals that are connected directly with copper wires to one or more valves. For every valve, a pair of wires are routed underground from the locations of the valves back to the controller (multiwire). However, as the number of valves/zones increases, so does the cost of wires and installation. Furthermore, if any of the wires is severed, it is very difficult to repair/replace, especially if it's buried under concrete structures.
Then came 2wire technology that promised simpler/lower cost installation. However it never materialized as it requires special burial wires and delicate connectors, suffers voltage drop over long distance, and it is most dificult to repair and maintain.
We at Lumirri have addressed the issues and short comings of the existing irrigation technology with advanced wireles technology. We simply replace the wires between controller (clock) and the (valve) terminals and replace them with long range wireless. Without long wire runs, our controller can reduce wiring and installation cost significantly.
The controller components consist of a gateway and smart remote nodes in a wireless mesh network that has a range of up to half a mile (longer range can be achieved.)
