2.1 Location of installation of the Irrigation Control:
The Irrigation Control is splash-proof. We recommend installing the Irrigation
Control in a location protected from the weather.
2.2 Cable cross-section of the connection cable:
The maximum permissible distance between the product and the valve
depends on the cross-section of the connection cable. For a distance of
30m, the cross-section is 0.5 mm² and 0.75 mm² for a distance of 45m.
No more than 2 valves (except for the master valve) must be in operation
at the same time.
The GARDENA Connection Cable Art. 1280 has a cross-section of
0.5mm² and is 15 m long.
This cable allows to connect up to 6 valves. For a waterproof connection
of the cable, use the GARDENA Cable Clip Art. 1282.
