The RainSensor conserves water by automatically suspending sprinkler system operation when sufficient rainfall is detected. The sensor can be adjusted for sensitivity and has an optional freeze-function for model 53853. Installation involves mounting the sensor outdoors, adjusting its sensitivity, and wiring it to the sprinkler timer. The system automatically resets once conditions change. The sensor can be bypassed via the timer's switch.
