Product Description
Add value, versatility, and convenience to your underground watering system with the Rain Bird SST-900i nine-station automatic indoor sprinkler timer.
Advanced Controls
The SST-900i offers one-touch seasonal adjustments, allowing you to increase watering in hot, dry months and reduce it in rainy periods. The timer is also compatible with an optional rain sensor, which automatically shuts off the timer when it's raining. And maintenance is easy thanks to the built-in troubleshooting feature. If the timer detects a short, it suspends watering to that zone and displays a warning message. The timer even protects against surges from nearby lightning strikes and power surges. If power is interrupted, the timer stores the settings indefinitely without the need for a backup battery.
Simple Installation
To install the SST-900i, simply strip the wires and push them into the color-coded terminals--no screwdriver necessary. The terminals make it easy to connect zone wires, master valves, pump start relays, or a rain sensor.
What's in the Box
SST-900i timer with transformer and 6-foot cord, English/Spanish installation guide, English/Spanish operating manuals.
RainBird SST900i Simple To Set 9 Zone Indoor Timer Review
Purchased this item in my local HD store. Overall quality is good. Easy to program, easy to wire. I have tried RainBir, Orbit, Toro and DIG, and I have 8 valves for my yard. For now, I keep this RainBird and return all others.Pro:
1. Individual program to every valve: you can set individual start time, watering duration for each of them. This function allows me to adjust different start time for different zone, and different cycle for different zone.
2. Just use the dial to switch to each function, very easy to understand and program.
3. Very easy to connect wires to the device. In other brand's products, you need to press hard to insert the wire to the connector.
4. Information panel is clear: the information is clear, an easy to read. I especially like that it tells me what is the next station to water at what time/date.
5. Overall quailty is good. It is beautiful, and fit quite well in my garage wall.
Con:
1. The major issue is the fix cycle time. For every station, you can set how many cycle to water in a day. However, the starting time of every cycle is fixed. For example, if you set 3 cycles a day for a station, the duration between every cycle is fixed (4 hour.) Like in Los Angeles, we will have no-water rule as of Jun/01/2009, no watering for lawn is allowed 9am to 4pm. In this function, I can not water my lawn twice a day with this device. Need to do it manually.
