Pump Start Relay Support

Welcome to the Pump Start Relay support section.
The PSR is fully compatible with all standard 24VAC controllers.

  • Connect to Controller
       
  • Maximum Distance to Controller
    The maximum distance of wire used from pump start relay to your irrigation controller (1) should never exceed the numbers listed in the chart below.                        
  • Minimum Distance to Controller
    While most of the time the distance between the controller and pump start relay doesn't create any problems, every once in a while the wires on the 24V coil can allow
  • Connect To Power Source
    NOTE: Connecting the Pump Start Relay should only be done by a licensed electrician following local codes. Improper installation could result in shock or fire hazard.
  • PSR- Booster
    The PSR-B was developed to provide a solution for irrigation controller and pump start relays installations that have insufficient power to energize the pump relay. A common cause
  • REL 2 - Relay Installation Guide
    REL 2 is used to allow multiple controllers to operate the same low-voltage device (Master Valve or Pump Start Relay).  IMPORTANT: REL 2 is NEVER connected to high voltage.
  • Chattering
    The chattering you hear on a pump start relay is usually caused by insufficient amperage arriving at the relay from the controller.  The first question you should ask yourself is –
