RainPoint 1-zone Hose Timer ITV105 — programmable watering schedule, single outlet irrigation controller

RainPoint ITV105 1-Zone Hose Timer is a single-outlet programmable irrigation controller designed to automate garden watering from a standard faucet or hose connection. The unit features a large backlit LCD for clear display of settings, a dial and buttons for intuitive programming, and a durable, weather-resistant housing with IP65 protection. Built-in metal filter and reinforced components ensure reliable operation at typical garden water pressures.

Advantages

The controller supports flexible schedules with watering intervals selectable every 1–12 hours or every 1–7 days, and watering duration adjustable from 1 minute up to 3 hours 59 minutes. Manual start is available without altering programmed schedules, and a rain delay function (24, 48 or 72 hours) prevents unnecessary watering after rainfall. The device accepts 2× AA batteries and handles working pressures from 0.5 to 8 bar with a maximum flow of 35 l/min.

Suitable for

• Lawn watering for small to medium areas
• Flower beds and ornamental plant irrigation
