The Irritrol DCL is a DC latching solenoid designed to operate irrigation valves from battery-powered controllers. It reduces power consumption by using a momentary pulse to change valve state and a second pulse to reset, making it ideal for remote or solar installations.

  • Low-power latching coil rated for approximately 9–12 VDC, engineered for battery controllers and latching systems.
  • Field-installable accessory that replaces standard AC solenoids on compatible Irritrol, Hardie and Richdel valve models.
  • Designed for reliable service in irrigation applications; encapsulated coil and durable housing resist moisture and outdoor exposure.
  • Accepts latching control signals to minimize current draw—extends battery life on remote controllers.
  • Compatible with numerous commercial and residential valve series as an optional accessory (200B, 2400, 2500 and similar models).
  • Maximum recommended operating pressure when using a latching solenoid: 120 psi (check valve model specifications before installation).

Easy to install and service in the field, the DCL latching solenoid is a practical upgrade when AC power is unavailable. Refer to the valve model's installation guide for wiring diagrams and any model-specific limits before purchase or installation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What voltage does the DCL latching solenoid require?
The DCL uses a low-power latching coil typically driven by 9–12 VDC pulses. Verify controller output before wiring.
Is the DCL compatible with my existing Irritrol valve model?
The DCL is an optional accessory on many Irritrol, Hardie and Richdel valves (e.g., 200B, 2400, 2500 series). Check your valve model's docs.
Can I install the DCL solenoid in the field myself?
Yes. The DCL is field-installable, but follow the valve installation guide for wiring diagrams and safety instructions.
Does using a latching solenoid change valve pressure limits?
Maximum recommended operating pressure when using a latching solenoid is 120 psi. Confirm model-specific pressure limits before installation.
