Rain Bird F48322 Battery Operated Irrigation Controller

Product Description

The RAIN BIRD F48322 is a single-station, battery-operated irrigation controller bundled with a solenoid valve, designed for remote or off-grid irrigation zones where AC power is not available. The unit runs on 9-volt DC power, making it suitable for installation in areas without a nearby power source. It is commonly installed by irrigation contractors, landscape professionals, and plumbers who service residential and light commercial irrigation systems. The included solenoid allows for a complete valve-and-controller installation in a single package.

This controller is intended for single-zone drip, spray, or rotor irrigation applications where a standalone, self-contained control solution is required. Typical installations include garden beds, remote landscape zones, and retrofit projects where running low-voltage wire back to a central controller is not practical. The battery-operated design eliminates the need for a transformer or dedicated wiring back to a control panel.

Key Features

• Single-station control suitable for one irrigation zone
• Battery-operated at 9 volts DC — no AC power or low-voltage wiring required
• Includes solenoid valve for a complete controller-plus-valve installation
• Self-contained design suited for remote or off-grid irrigation zones
• Compact form factor for direct field installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation controller for single-station battery-operated irrigation systems requiring a 9-volt solenoid-compatible control valve assembly.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed irrigation contractors or plumbers familiar with low-voltage irrigation controls. Shut off the water supply to the irrigation zone before connecting or replacing the solenoid. Follow local plumbing and irrigation codes when installing valve assemblies in pressurized water lines. Do not exceed the rated operating pressure or voltage of the solenoid during installation or testing.
