Frequently Asked Questions - 2713APRDK-LF Irritrol

How do I set the current time and date on my Irritrol 2713APRDK-LF?

Press the 'Set Time' button, then use the +/- keys to adjust hours and minutes. Press 'Next' to set the day, month, and year. Confirm with 'Enter'.

How many watering zones does the 2713APRDK-LF support?

It supports up to 6 stations, expandable with additional modules. Each zone can be programmed independently.

Why is my controller not turning on?

Check the power supply: ensure the transformer is plugged in and the circuit breaker is not tripped. Also verify the 24 VAC output at the controller terminals.

Can I connect a rain sensor to this controller?

Yes, it is rain sensor compatible. Connect the sensor wires to the 'SEN' terminals and enable the sensor in the settings menu.

How do I program a watering schedule?

Select a program (A, B, or C), set the start times and duration for each zone. Use the 'Program' button to cycle through options and adjust with +/- keys.

What should I do if a zone doesn't water?

Check the wiring to the solenoid valve, ensure the zone is programmed with a duration, and verify the valve is not blocked. Also test the solenoid with a multimeter.

How do I manually start watering?

Press the 'Manual' button, select the zone, and set the duration. The controller will run that zone immediately.

Is the 2713APRDK-LF suitable for outdoor installation?

Yes, it has a weatherproof enclosure rated NEMA 3R, suitable for outdoor mounting in sheltered locations.

How do I reset the controller to factory defaults?

Press and hold the 'Reset' button (usually beneath the faceplate) for 5 seconds. All programming will be erased.

  • Drip Line Compression Adapter, CA-710
  • 1" x 3/4" Male NPT Reducer Bushing
  • 3/4" MPT x 1/2" Slip Fitting

Specifications

• Downstream Pressure Regulation: 25 psi
• Flow Rate at 25 psi: (LF Model) 0.1–8 GPM (MF Model) 2–20 GPM
  • Filtration: 150 Mesh Stainless Steel Screen
  • 1" In-line Electric Control Valve, Model 2500TF

Installation Procedure

CAUTION: When assembling the drip zone valve kit components, use just 1½ to 2 turns of PTFE tape on male threads. Never use pipe dope. To achieve a leak-free thread connection, turn the male fitting until it is finger-tight, and then add one or two more turns. Over-tightening can cause splitting and failure of the female threads.

⚠️ Important: Ensure the Y-filter, control valve and pressure regulator are installed in the correct flow orientation. Flow direction arrows are provided on each component. Refer to Figure 1.

1. Thread the Y-filter inlet into the valve outlet with the provided 1" x 3/4" NPT reducer bushing. Use PTFE tape on all threaded connections. Angle the Y-filter slightly downward as shown in Figure 1.
2. Thread the pressure regulator inlet into the Y-filter outlet.
3. Connect the water source supply line and piping to drip emitters.

NOTE: Installing the valve assembly below grade in a valve box is recommended for protection and ease of service.

NOTE: Refer to the 2500TF Series Valve Instruction Guide provided in the kit for complete valve installation and operation information.

NOTE: To adapt the Drip Zone Valve Kit for dripline applications, install the provided 3/4" MPT x 1/2" Slip fitting and CA-710 dripline compression adapter to the pressure regulator outlet.

1. Flush the system to remove debris.
2. To determine the recommended minimum/maximum number of drip emitters per control valve, refer to the table below.
