Want to Effectively Manage a Large Site? ICR Remote Control is the Answer

Contractors from all over have been asking for one thing in a remote control: a product that is strong enough to communicate over long distances. The ICR Long Range Remote is the answer and it’s now available for purchase.

The ICR is the ideal accessory for irrigation systems at expansive sites such as industrial parks, university campuses, shopping centers, and apartment or condominium complexes. The new remote control is powerful enough to deliver peak performance even when trees, buildings or walls stand between you (with the remote in hand) and the location where the controller is mounted, up to a half mile away. With no obstructions in the path of the remote’s signal, communication with the controller is possible for up to one mile.

Featuring rugged and water-resistant construction, the ICR offers simple push-button operation and a large LCD display for easy viewing. Thanks to automatic shut-off when the unit is not in use, it can operate on a single 9V battery for up to a year. Best of all, it’s the most affordable long-range remote control on the market.

A single ICR can interface with any Hunter controller that comes equipped with a SmartPort® plug (SRC, Pro-C, ICC), enabling the remote to be carried from job to job for accessing dozens of different irrigation systems. Contractors will find the ICR perfect for making routine maintenance and winterization into simpler tasks. There’s no need to walk back and forth from the controller to stop and start the system, and one person can do the job instead of two.

All in all, the ICR is the essential contractor’s tool.

Of course, specifiers will love it, too. After all, irrigation efficiency is one thing that designers strive for and the ICR is a real time-saver for the on-site crew responsible for irrigation maintenance and repair.
