AI WATERING
How to Install an Automatic Irrigation System

Solenoid valve or water pump


2" 110V Electric Solenoid Valve (Fig.1)
AI WATERING can control solenoid valves or water pumps.
The following image is to demonstrate the case of using an electric solenoid valve to open/close the water source.
Please choose the right size electric solenoid valve for your irrigation demand.
For a small garden or potted plants, a 1/4" electric solenoid valve shown in the picture (Fig.1) recommended.
Please use a normally closed solenoid valve (power on - open / power off - close), connect one of the power supply wire to the "COM" then connect "NO" to the Solenoid Valve.
The other wire connects to Solenoid Valve directly.
Please check it below Fig.

Warring:
Please turn off the power during instaltaion.
