Hunter Modular Controllers: The Cost-Efficient Solution for Any Size Landscape

From the Pro-C to the ICC to the award-winning ACC, the complete family of Hunter modular controllers has been designed to handle landscape needs of virtually every size and scope.

The Pro-C is ideal for sites with as few as three valves, while the ICC can accommodate a territory with as many as 48 stations. But what is it that all three of these different Hunter controllers have in common that makes them so easy to handle?

It’s the fact that they are all modular controllers.

What is Modularity?

Simply put, a Hunter modular controller starts out as a base unit—the Pro-C starts with three stations, ICC with eight, ACC with 12. To each of these base units, additional “modules” can be added making it possible to expand the size of the controller.

Pro-C modules come in 3- or 9-station sizes, allowing the controller to handle up to 15 stations. ICC modules are available in 4- or 8-station sizes, enabling the controller to grow to 48 stations. The ACC modules contain six stations and can be added in multiples to create a controller as large as 42 stations.

By being able to create the particular size controller a contractor needs, the benefits are obvious:

• The ability to customize the size of the controller means that contractors may only need to carry one controller to handle a variety of jobs—both new installs as well as service work to existing units.
• Controllers can be “custom tailored” to the exact number of stations needed on the job. That means there is no need to pay for extra stations and no need to run back to the shop if the “incorrect” size controller is brought to the job site.
• Having only one controller to stock and manage will eliminate the inventory investment (dollars and cents) in your shop. All that needs to be stocked are indoor base units, outdoor base units, and a mix of the different sizes of station modules.

In addition, modules make servicing a controller simple. If a station module has a problem, simply pop in a new one. No need to remove the entire controller.

Hunter’s Best-Selling Modular Controller

Because its size (3 to 15 stations) fits the needs of so many contractors, the Pro-C is far and away the most popular of the controllers in the Hunter modular family. And while the fact that it is modular is a large part of its popularity, it is by no means the only reason.

Contractors are impressed by the Pro-C’s many intuitive and user-friendly programming options. Three independent programs (each with up to 4 start times) to handle multiple daily waterings. Long station run times for deep soaking needs and drip systems. Interval watering, true odd/even or day of the week scheduling to accommodate virtually any irrigation restrictions your area might have. An “event day off” feature to designate one specified day of the week for non-watering (perfect for regular maintenance or special events)

The Pro-C also includes Hunter’s SmartPort® connector, which enables the controller to communicate with one of Hunter’s handy remote control products, either the SRR (for short range distances up to 450 feet) or the ICR (with a range up to 2 miles, unobstructed). In addition, non-volatile memory allows Pro-C to hold program information indefinitely, providing excellent insurance against unreliable power.

If you have customers with larger landscapes, you’ll find a lot to like about the ICC and ACC controllers, as well. Stop in your local authorized Hunter distributor or visit the controllers section on our website and learn about the great things these modular controllers have to offer.
