Determining Maximum Current Load
Table 2 above provides various current load combinations that are possible
when using 1, 2 or 3 watering programs running simultaneously with master
valve/pump start control options.
Table 2
Output Current Load Reference
The values in the Station Valve row indicate the number of solenoid loads based
on one station/valve per program. The Master Valve and Pump Start row values
are based on one load per circuit and one or two Flow Modules each utilizing
the individual Master Valve control output.
Note: The maximum total current load permitted is 1.20A @24 VAC. The valve
and relay loads shown in the chart are based on 0.30A @ 24 VAC (nominal).
Actual current draw will vary with make, model, configuration and size of valves
and relays in use. Check the manufacturer's specifications and recalculate the
maximum number of loads permitted based on actual values.
