Hunter Industries RAINCLIK Wired Rain Sensor

Product Description

The HUNTER INDUSTRIES RAINCLIK is a wired rain sensor designed to interrupt an irrigation controller's watering cycle automatically when rainfall reaches a set threshold. Installed at the controller's sensor terminals, it uses a hygroscopic disc mechanism that expands when wet, tripping the circuit and suspending scheduled irrigation. Once the discs dry, the system resets and normal watering resumes. This quick-response design minimizes water waste during and immediately after rain events. It is suited for residential and light commercial irrigation systems and is typically installed by licensed irrigation contractors or knowledgeable landscape professionals.

The RAINCLIK is used in wired irrigation control applications where a local rain shutoff device is required or preferred. It mounts to a gutter, fascia, or other elevated surface with a clear exposure to open sky, and connects directly to the sensor input terminals on a compatible irrigation controller. It is appropriate for residential lawn and garden systems as well as small commercial turf applications where a simple, reliable rain shutoff is needed without wireless infrastructure.

Key Features

• Quick-response hygroscopic disc mechanism suspends irrigation as soon as adequate rainfall is detected
• Automatic reset when discs dry, returning the system to normal scheduled operation
• Wired connection to standard irrigation controller sensor terminals
• Adjustable rainfall threshold to suit local watering needs
• Compact, durable housing suited for outdoor mounting on gutters or fascia

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style wired rain sensor for use with irrigation controllers that include a dedicated sensor input terminal pair.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed irrigation contractor. Power down or turn off the irrigation controller before connecting sensor wiring to the sensor terminals. Mount the sensor in an open, unobstructed location such as a gutter edge or fascia board to ensure accurate rainfall exposure. Consult local codes and the controller manufacturer's wiring diagram before making any connections.
