First, be sure to have a proven wiring diagram available for the particular situation you are wiring. Next, any Class 1 wiring (above 30 VAC) must be installed by a licensed electrician. Last, if you are not experienced in pump start wiring, find someone who knows how to install a pump start and learn the basics from them before you attempt to install one by yourself. Warning! Any pump start relay wired to an irrigation controller should have all unused station wires connected to the last used station wire. See Figure 7. The following diagrams show wiring details for pump start relay and pump motor starter wiring for various Rain Bird controllers. Figure 1: This is a basic pump start wiring diagram for most controllers. This diagram assumes the Master Valve circuit is being utilized for the pump start circuit.

You can however, install multiple relays to one pump starter. This diagram is for installing two or more controller relays to one pump starter, and any controller can operate at any time with any other controller already operating. Warning!: Be sure to allow for enough hydraulic supply, if multiple controllers can operate at the same time.

If more than one controller is in operation at the same time, Controller A takes precedence over Controllers B, C and D; Controller B will take precedence over C and D; Controller C will take precedence over Controller D.

The pressure switch will turn on the pump any time the pressure falls below the preset low pressure limit. The controller will turn on the pump when a irrigation start is initiated, whether the pressure switch is active or not. PRESSURE SWITCH PMC PUMP MOTOR STARTER CONTROLLER Figure 7: Any time you wire a pump start relay to a controller, you must wire all unused stations to the last station with a valve to prevent pump "dead-heading." This diagram shows wiring details for wiring unused station to the last used station.

When station "X" turns on, the pump is turned off. The pump stays off for all remaining stations in the cycle. When the last station turns off, the pump relay is reset to operate with the next irrigation start. The pump operates with stations 1 through "X - 1" and is off with stations X through the last station. Example: ISC - B + -12 with the pump on for stations #1 through #4 and off with stations #5 through #12. Station #5 is control station X and turns the pump off when the controller turns on Station #5. When the cycle is complete (all 12 stations have operated), the pump start relay is reset to start the pump at the next irrigation start. 8 Figure 9: This diagram shows wiring for a pump start relay wired with a rain sensor (Rain Check) or a soil moisture sensor (Aquamiser).

The following diagrams illustrate how to install relays for multiple controller installations. Figure 10: This diagram illustrates the wiring for installing two controllers with one Master Valve. A Rain Check or Aquamiser device for each controller is also shown. If the Rain Check or Aquamiser device is not installed, the common wire should be wired to bypass the unit in the diagram.
