Rain Bird DECPULLR Pulse Decoder for Two-Wire Satellites - DECPULLR
The Rain Bird DECPULLR Pulse Decoder reads pulse signals from flow meters and other monitoring devices and relays that data over a two‑wire satellite path. Designed for integration with Rain Bird Maxicom and ESP‑LXD decoder systems, it extends system monitoring and control beyond standard irrigation functions.
Ideal for commercial and large residential landscapes, the DECPULLR pulse decoder helps convert local sensor outputs into actionable data at the central controller. Refer to Rain Bird technical documents for installation details and electrical specifications before commissioning.
Features
-
Pulse input and reporting: Accepts pulse outputs from flow sensors and meters, converts pulses into digital counts transmitted over the two‑wire path for central analysis.
-
Two‑wire compatibility: Connects directly to Rain Bird two‑wire decoder networks—no separate power supply required; operates using the 26 VAC provided by the communication path.
-
System integration: Works with Maxicom², ESP‑LXD and other Rain Bird decoder-compatible controllers to enable centralized monitoring and event-driven control.
-
Compact, serviceable design: PCB-style decoder for satellite enclosures or controller boards; simplifies field replacement and board-exchange programs where applicable.
-
Diagnostics & reliability: Provides pulse-count feedback to support leak/flow detection and system diagnostics when used with compatible central controllers.
What our Experts Think
-
Core decoder interface module: The Rain Bird DECPULLR Pulse Decoder is designed to convert pulse signals from flow sensors into system-readable data for two-wire satellite irrigation networks.
-
Two-wire system integration: Built specifically for Rain Bird Maxicom and SiteControl hardwired two-wire satellite systems, enabling centralized monitoring over long distances.
-
Pulse signal processing: Accepts input from flow meters or pulse transmitters and translates those pulses into digital counts for irrigation control and diagnostics.
-
No local power requirement: Powered through the two-wire communication path (typically 26 VAC), eliminating the need for a separate power supply in the field.
-
System-wide flow visibility: Enables central controllers to monitor water usage, detect abnormal flow conditions, and support leak detection strategies in large irrigation networks.
-
Built for commercial-scale systems: Commonly used in golf courses, sports fields, and municipal landscapes where long-distance signal reliability and water management are critical.
-
Trade-off reality: Not a standalone device—requires a full compatible two-wire satellite control system and proper decoder architecture to function correctly.
