Throughout history, the vision of what could be, and what should be, has providedthe inspiration to bring tomorrow back to today. The visionary engineers at RainMaster have looked beyond the horizon and have developed the RME SENTAR II,truly an inspired controller for the irrigation industry.
With enhanced flexibility and new features, the RME SENTAR II is designed toconserve water and protect landscapes by offering full flow sensing control aswell as Cycle and Soak programming. It is designed to keep you in control … andcontrol is everything!
Filled with features and built with lasting reliability to provide a lifetime ofperformance, the RME SENTAR II is so simple to use and program, you shouldn’tsettle for anything less.
Above: RME36SE-ST
Just add a Rain Master FlowSensor to the Sentar II to achievetotal flow control.
• Main line break detection.
• Unscheduled flow detection.
• Station upper limit flow detection withprogrammable individual limits.
• Totalizer feature for tracking water usage ingallons for specific time periods.
• View/monitor measured station flow in GPM.
• Programmable flow check delay of1 to 6 minutes.
• Flow “learn” mode for establishingstation limits automatically.
• Upper station limits can be set globallyby percentage.
• Select either a normally open or normallyclosed master valve.
Only the Sentar II provides trueCycle and Soak to eliminaterunoff and conserve water.
• Select Cycle-and-Soak or conventionalprogramming on a per program basis.
• Set total “Run Time”, “Max Cycle Time”and “Soak Time” per station.
• Display Total Run Time per program whichconsiders all soak delays, water budgetpercentage and interstation delays.
• Quick Station support for Cycle-and-Soak.
Programming Capability
• Four independent programs with five starttimes each.
• Select 1 minute to 9 hours 59 minuteswatering time per zone.
• Water days based on 7 day or Skip-by-Day,with up to 30 days between watering.
• Water budgeting by increasing or decreasingstation run times in 1% increments from 0%to 300% per program.
• Select usage of a Master Valve on a perprogram basis.
• Select usage of a Pump on a perprogram basis.
• Programmable overlap protection allowsprograms to run in a “Stacked Mode”or concurrently.
• Programmable time delay between stationsallows delay from 1 second to 255 seconds(4 minutes, 15 seconds) to allow slow closingvalves to completely shut off.
• Programmable Rain Shut Down allows theselection of the number of days the controllerwill stay off (in rain shut down mode) beforeit goes back to Automatic watering mode.
• Rain/freeze sensor may be used to turn onor off any one of the 4 programs.
• Programmable security codes.
Reliability/Maintenance
• Non-volatile memory holds the programsindefinitely during outages or shutdowns.
• A “Real Time” clock holds the actual timeduring power outages without batteries.
• Automatic resumption of any program inprogress upon power restoration.
• No batteries to replace, ever.
• Electronic overload protection with automaticreset (no fuses or circuit breakers)
• Automatic Field Wire Fault Detection sensesshorts, shuts down stations, reports faults, andmoves to the next programmed station.
• Audible and visual alarm notification forstation faults.
• View status of Rain Sensor (wet or dry) inthe display.
• Specialized controller power supervisor circuitprevents lockups due to power surges andbrownouts.
• Built-in Test Mode.
• Heavy-duty membrane keypad offers visualand audio feedback with each key depression.
• Extra heavy-duty lightning and surgeprotection models available.
• 18-guage steel housing with powder coatedpolyurethane finish. Also available in stainlesssteel (larger enclosures only).
Ease of Use
• Quick Station Capability allowssimultaneous programming of blocks ofstations with the same run times.
• Program review with manual stop andgo scrolling.
• Manual Rain Shut-Off switch.
• LEDs provide instant identification of stationactivity, including watering days, stationprogramming and field fault identificationat the press of a button.
• Manually-activated program cycle allows therunning of a program independent of itsprogrammed start time and water days.
• Detachable harness connectors allow forquick access to the front panel withoutdisconnecting field wires.
Pro Max Compatibility
• The tough, affordable Pro Max Remote issimple and easy to use.
• Plug and play ready.
• Advanced features when used withSentar II.
• Internal permanent mount receiver option.
Certification and Warranty
• UL, C-UL, and FCC approved.
• Limited 5-year warranty.
