in AC or DC (battery operated) irrigation systems – no multimeter required
Pro50™ Features
- Test wiring, operate and chatter valves in conventional 24 Vac systems
- Test wiring, operate and chatter valves in battery-operated systems(9 Vdc with DC latching solenoids)
- Check AC or DC (battery operated) controller operation
- AC/DC Auto-ranging Multimeter built in
- Sends wire tracing tones and verifies the wire
- Toro Golf Spike Guard™ solenoid compatible
- Long life AA batteries (4 required)
- Also available as a kit with case and probe (Pro50K™)
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The Pro50™ Digital Irrigation System Tester is a complete tool for testing
multi-wire electrically-controlled irrigation systems – verifying controller
functions,wiring continuity and valve solenoid operation. It is designed for
users who may need to test both conventional AC systems and DC (9-volt
battery) operated systems. In the AC mode, the tester measures and activates
valve circuits using 24 volts, while in the DC mode the tester uses the same
signals as popular 9-volt battery operated controllers to activate DC latching
solenoids. The Pro50™ will “chatter” valves in both modes.
It includes a built-in auto-ranging multimeter that will read voltage up to 40
volts and resistance up to 40 kilohms. The standard electrical test leads are
interchangeable with the test leads from your other meters if you want to
probe terminals and wires instead of clipping on with the alligators.
