Toro rd600-ext-r 6 Station Outdoor Irrigation Controller

Product Description

The TORO rd600-ext-r is a 6-station outdoor irrigation controller from the Rain Dial R Series, designed for residential and light commercial landscape irrigation systems. Built for exterior installation, this unit manages up to six independent watering zones and includes Rain Ready sensor compatibility, allowing the controller to suspend irrigation cycles automatically when rainfall is detected. Licensed irrigation technicians and landscape contractors install this controller as a primary scheduling and zone-control device in sprinkler and drip systems. Its outdoor-rated enclosure makes it suitable for direct exposure to the elements in typical field installations.

The rd600-ext-r is intended for outdoor use in residential landscapes and light commercial irrigation applications. It supports up to six individually programmable zones, making it appropriate for small to mid-size turf and planting areas. The Rain Ready sensor port allows integration of a rain sensor to prevent unnecessary watering cycles during or after precipitation events. This controller fits standard low-voltage irrigation wiring layouts common in residential subdivision and commercial property installations.
