Hi, I am totally new to irrigation. I have succesfully connected 12 valves to my Hunter Eco-Logic controller, which is fed by my borehole pump. 5,5kw and everything works fine.
However, I need to start the borehole phyiscally, then strart irrigation. When the program is completed after 5 hours, I have to stop the borehole pump physically or else it will pop my pipes/connections.
I am also worried that the power to the controller trips and all valves shut down, but the borehole i still running, which will pop the pipes or connetions.
Can I use the Master control valve power (not in use) on the controller to start and stop the pump, and how do I do that. I believe both is 24volt.
My boreole pump starts/stop with a push switch looking like this:
(inside of door of the starter where the switches are, three low volt wires from the starter to the run/stop switch)
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
