HYDRO RAIN HRC 100-C Manuel De L'utilisateur page 4

1. Select a Location
When choosing a location for your HRC 100 C, consider the
following:
• Choose location near a power source (if hard wiring) or
electrical outlet when using the supplied power cord .
• Ensure operating temperatures are not below 32° or
above 158° Fahrenheit (below 0° Celsius or above 70°
Celsius) .
• Place it away from direct sunlight if possible .
• Ensure at least 9" of space to the left of the sprinkler
controller box for the door to swing open after
installation .
• Locate the controller where there is easy access to
sprinkler wire (from valves) . If mounted in an outdoor
location, shut the compartment door to keep the
controller safe from weather damage . To lock: insert the
key and turn clockwise to the locked position .
Note: Sprinkler controllers are weather-resistant to UL-50
and ETL ® Listings, but should not be placed in areas where
continuous water could cause damage.

2. Mount the Controller
• Use the mounting template (included) to mark the
mounting screw location on the wall . See figure 1
• Install a No . 8 screw (included) into wall in the upper
template location . Leave the screw head protruding 1/8"
(3mm) from wall . Use expanding anchors (included) in
plaster or masonry, if necessary, for a secure hold .
• Slip the HRC 100 C over protruding screw (using keyhole
slot in back) . See figure 2
• Drive a No . 8 screw through one of the two pre-formed
holes located in lower back cabinet . See figure 2

3. Connect Valve Wires to Controller
• Strip 1/2" (12 mm) of the plastic insulation off the end of
each valve wire at the controller .
• Connect one wire from each valve (it doesn't matter
which wire) to a single "Common" sprinkler wire (usually
white) .
• Connect the remaining wire from each valve to a
separate colored sprinkler wire .
See figure 3
Note: The maximum loading for each station/pump is 250mA,
the maximum loading for the controller is 500mA.
If the distance between the sprinkler controller and valves is under
700' (210 m), use sprinkler wire or 20 gauge (AWG) plastic jacketed
thermostat wire to connect the sprinkler controller to the valves. If
the distance is over 700' (210 m), use 16 gauge (AWG) wire.

Wiring Electric Valves
Important: All wires should be joined together using wire nuts,
solder, and/or vinyl tape. In wet environments like a valve box it
is recommended to use grease caps to prevent corrosion of the
connection and for protection from water infiltration.
Wiring Electric Valves
Strip 1/2" (12 mm) of plastic insulation off the end of each
individual wire . Each valve has two wires . One wire (it doesn't
matter which one) is to be connected as the common . The
other valve wire is to be connected to the specific station wire
that will control that valve . The common wires for all the
valves can be connected together to one common wire going
to the controller . To avoid electrical hazards, only one valve
should be connected to each station . See figure 4
Important: The wire can be buried in the ground; however, for
more protection wires can be pulled through PVC pipe and buried
underground. Be careful to avoid burying the wires in locations
where they could bedamaged by digging or trenching in the future.
Your controller is equipped with the simple "push-in" terminals
for easy connection . Connect common wire to the common
terminal . Connect remaining wires to corresponding terminal
locations .
Only connect one valve to
each terminal (station) .
