Smart Hunter HPC 4-Station Irrigation Controller with Sensor Plug&Rain EXP

Hunter HPC outdoor irrigation controller (4 stations; expandable up to 23) with Rain-Clik in high-quality Plug&Rain® Expert quality.

The Plug&Rain® Expert control set with the professional Hunter HPC controller provides you with a technically superior smart irrigation solution for up to 4 irrigation zones. The HPC controller comes with Hydrawise built in, so you can conveniently control it via the Hydrawise app on your smartphone or PC. Simply enter the Wi-Fi password on the touch screen and you can easily control it using the app. Whether you want to start the individual stations manually or set automated programs, you have control over everything, anytime, anywhere.

You get all the components you need for fully automatic garden irrigation, including daily climate adjustment using online weather data. The rain sensor immediately shuts off watering when it rains and re-enables watering after the amount of rain has evaporated. The HPC can be expanded with extension modules (PCM) to manage even more valve stations. This means that your system is also optimally set up for expansions and larger garden projects.

Why is the HPC control system smart?
The Hydrawise platform offers you numerous practical options: You can conveniently create schedules, monitor your water consumption or be notified of potential problems (e.g. burst pipes). You can control all of this easily using your smartphone, tablet or PC.
