GARDENA 19035 Smart Irrigation Control

GARDENA-19035-Smart-Irrigation-Control-PRODUCT

Smart Irrigation Control

The GARDENA Smart Irrigation Control is a device used to control commercially available 24 V (AC) valves and regulate the electric power consumption per channel, which must not exceed 500 mA.

Intended Use

The product is designed for home use and must not be used for industrial purposes or with chemicals, foodstuffs, or easily flammable and explosive materials.

Safety Warnings

  • Risk of suffocation! Keep toddlers away when assembling the product.
  • Cardiac arrest! Consult your physician and the manufacturer of your implant before using this product if you have a medical implant.
  • Electric shock! The product must only be operated with the 36 V (DC) power supply unit provided. Do not use an adapter.

Assembly

Location of Installation

The Irrigation Control is splashproof and should be installed in a location protected from the weather.

Cable Cross-Section

The connection cable should have an appropriate cross-section to ensure optimal performance.

Installation on the Wall

  1. Remove the cover from the Irrigation Control.
  2. Mark the positions of the holes at a distance of 120 mm by holding the Irrigation Control horizontally against the wall.
  3. Drill the holes and install the Irrigation Control at the wall using the screws and wall plugs provided. Ensure that the cables are led downwards and pay attention to cable lengths during installation. If you want to mount several Irrigation Controls, install them one above the other with a vertical distance of 150 mm. The cable routing allows you to install up to 3 irrigation controls one above the other.

Installation

Cable Strain Relief

To remove the cable strain relief, follow the instructions in the operator’s manual carefully.

Translation of the original instructions.

  • This product may be used under supervision, or if instruction regarding the safe use of the product has been provided and the resulting dangers have been understood, by children aged 8 and above, as well as by persons with physical, sensory or mental disabilities or a lack of experience and knowledge.

SAFETY WARNINGS

Important!

Read the operator’s manual carefully before use and keep for future reference.

Explanation of the symbols:

Read the operator’s manual.

DANGER! Cardiac arrest

  • This product makes an electro-magnetic field while it oper-ates. This field can affect the functioning of active or pas-sive medical implants and cause serious or fatal injuries (e. g. pacemakers).
  • Consult your physician and the manufacturer of your implant before using this product.
  • After using the product, disconnect the mains plug from the mains socket.

DANGER! Risk of suffocation

  • Small parts can be easily swal-lowed. There is also a risk that the polybag can suffocate tod-dlers.
  • Keep toddlers away when you assemble the product.
  • Risk of injury due to electric shock.
  • The product must be supplied through a residual current device (RCD) having a rated residual operating current not exceeding 30 mA.
  • The product must only be operated with the 36 V (DC) power supply unit provided. Do not use an adapter.
  • Protect the 36 V (DC) power supply unit from moisture and direct sun­light when connected.
  • Install the Irrigation Control in a weatherproof location.
  • Check the power cord for damage before use.
  • The product must be used only for controlling commercially available 24 V (AC) valves. The electric power consumption per channel must  not exceed 500 mA (a GARDENA Irrigation Valve Art. 1278 requires 150 mA).

ASSEMBLY

Location of installation of the Irrigation Control:

  • The Irrigation Control is splash­proof. We recommend installing the Irrigation Control in a location protected from the weather.

Cable cross-section of the connection cable:

  • The maximum permissible distance between the product and the valve depends on the cross­section of the connection cable. For a distance of 30 m, the cross­section 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 cross­section 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.

To assemble the Irrigation Control on the wall:

  • Both screws and wall plugs are included in the scope of delivery. The distance between the holes is 120 mm.
  • WARNING! Risk of falling!
  • If you install the Irrigation Control at a height of more than 2.0 m, you risk falling to the ground during installation.
  • Install the Irrigation Control at a height of 2.0 m maximum.
  • Do not climb on a ladder or similar aid to install the Irrigation Control.
  • Keep both feet firmly on the ground when mounting the Irrigation Control.GARDENA-19035-Smart-Irrigation-Control-FIG-1
  1. Remove the cover 1.GARDENA-19035-Smart-Irrigation-Control-FIG-2
  2. Mark the positions of the holes. To do this, hold the Irrigation Control horizontally against the wall and mark 2 holes at a distance of 120 mm.
  3. Drill the holes and install the Irrigation Control at the wall using the 2 wall plugs and screws supplied.

NOTE:

  • The cables must be led downwards!
  • Pay attention to the cable lengths, especially during initial installation.
  • If you want to mount several Irrigation Controls, install them one above the other with a vertical distance of 150 mm.
  • The cable routing allows you to install up to 3 irrigation controls one above the other.

INSTALLATION

To remove the cable strain relief:

  • Loosen both screws 3 and remove the cable strain relief 4.

Connection overview:

  • To connect the valves to the Valve Box:
  • Make sure that the terminal block has been correctly installed in the valve box.GARDENA-19035-Smart-Irrigation-Control-FIG-6
  1. Label the valves (1 – 6) with the yellow stickers of the valve box.
    • This allows to clearly assign the signal cable terminals VALVES 1 – 6 of the Irrigation Control to the valves.GARDENA-19035-Smart-Irrigation-Control-FIG-6
  2. Connect a cable of valve V1 to the signal cable terminal 1 of the Valve Box.
  3. Connect a cable of valve V2 to the signal cable terminal 2 of the Valve Box.
  4. Connect a cable of valve V3 to the signal cable terminal 3 of the Valve Box.GARDENA-19035-Smart-Irrigation-Control-FIG-7

MAINTENANCE

To clean the Irrigation Control:

  • Do not use caustic/abrasive cleaning agents.
  • Clean the Irrigation Control with a damp cloth (do not use solvent).

STORAGE

To put into storage:

  • The product must be stored away from children.
  • The irrigation valves may become permanently damaged if exposed to temperatures below 5 °C. We advise you to take the following measures before the onset of frost:
  1. Close the tap and detach the connecting hose between the tap and the GARDENA Connecting Point, Art. 2722.
  2. If the irrigation system is connected directly to your house’s water system: Turn off the water supply and open the drain cock in the water pipe for the house.
  3. Set the selection lever on all valves to the “ON” position.
  4. Drain the irrigation valve/valve box.

This can be done in the following ways:

Drain the system using compressed air or

  • remove all valves and store them in a frost-free place for the Valve Box V3, open the drain cap, and drain the supply pipe.
  • As long as the pipes coming from the Valve Box V3 outlets are drained via a drain valve (e. g. in the GARDENA pop-up sprinklers) which is not attached at a higher point than the irrigation valve, the irrigation valves can be left mounted in the valve box.
  • The smart Irrigation Control can remain installed after it has been deactivated.
