New 8-input Remote Control Kits offer wireless, solar-powered transmission and reception of signals for irrigation, water wells and wastewater management systems. The kits include a transmitter, receiver and omni-directional antenna. Input sensors command the transmitter to send radio signals to a corresponding receiver, located near the water supply. Input signals can come from temperature, moisture and flow detection switches, in addition to reservoir hi-lo water level and alarm switches. Receiver outputs can be sent to a range of actuator types, including pump and irrigation controllers. Featuring a 5-mile range, the signal is uniquely encoded and redundant to avoid tampering. No radio license is required, and there are no cell phone costs. Solar panels keep the transmitters and receivers powered up, and when fully powered, they can function for several weeks without sunshine. The rechargeable batteries last up to five years.
