Toro irrigation controllers

Toro controllers for automatic irrigation

A Toro irrigation controller allows you to automate garden watering and supply different areas independently. Pop-up sprinklers for lawns, dripline along hedges and irrigation for garden beds can be divided into separate watering zones and programmed according to their individual requirements.

Toro offers irrigation controllers for different system sizes and requirements. When choosing a controller, consider how many irrigation zones you need, the intended installation location and the functions supported by the selected model. This allows you to match the controller to your irrigation system.

Control multiple irrigation zones

The number of stations determines how many irrigation zones a Toro controller can operate independently. This allows different areas of the garden to be watered separately. Lawns, for example, may require different watering schedules from drip irrigation used for hedges, vegetable beds or other planted areas.

It is useful to plan the required number of stations when designing your irrigation system. Additional capacity can be beneficial if you intend to add more sprinklers, beds or drip lines later. Whether a controller can be expanded and which options are available depends on the individual Toro model.

Combine Toro controllers with sensors

Depending on the model, Toro irrigation controllers can be combined with compatible sensors. A rain sensor, for example, can help interrupt scheduled irrigation when sufficient rainfall has occurred. Other sensor functions and connection options depend on the selected controller and compatible accessories.

When choosing your controller, consider both the number of stations and the additional functions you require. Check which sensors and expansion options are supported by the selected Toro controller. This allows you to configure automatic garden irrigation according to your individual requirements.

Install a Toro irrigation controller

In conventional irrigation systems, the controller is connected to the solenoid valves using suitable control cable. Individual controller stations operate the assigned solenoid valves and activate the corresponding irrigation zones. This provides central automatic control of several areas throughout the garden.

Start by planning your irrigation zones and then choose a Toro controller with a suitable number of stations. Combined with solenoid valves, control cables, cable connectors and compatible sensors, you can build an organised automatic irrigation system and expand it later depending on the selected system.
