The two-wire decoder is the new trend of technical tools helping to simplify complicated irrigation systems. They designed it using valve-controlled technology to lower the cost of irrigation programs done on a large scale. The decoder irrigation system is highly useful in golf courses, landscapes, and mainly in the agriculture arena.

Decoders:

They are electronic tools connected to irrigation controllers by using wire paths. The wire path provides the signals and power to the irrigation valve solenoids. Thus, you can attach many irrigation valves to the same wire path. Now, you don’t have to fix separate wires for each irrigation solenoid. This irrigation system of decoders helps to control many valve places in various places easily. It cuts down the cost of wiring and even lessens the labor service fee.

Benefits of switching to irrigation decoder system over conventional irrigation system:

• You can place anywhere the decoders; the system will work with no problem. The flexibility helps the installer to place them in any order, thus no complications while arranging the irrigation system.
• You can extend or narrow the arrangement as per the requirement even after the installation of whole wiring and solenoids in various places. You can install a new decoder station using the same two-wire paths.
• The entire system is reliable and won’t troubleshoot often. It is because a lesser number of wires is used to complete the whole arrangement for easy irrigation. Often rodents and shovel usage cut the wires that are present underneath the soil, thus the whole link breaks and there is need to be installed again.
• Field wiring is a complicated process, if not done rightly places many problems leading to face difficulties in the agricultural field. A two-wire path is easier to handle than multiple wired paths as it takes considerable time to fix the default wires.
• The decoders are waterproof devices and designed to remain safe in a valve box along with valves. It is because they possess low voltage thus safe from lighting problems.
• You can repair separately any decoder without disturbing the entire irrigation system.
• All the decoders receive orders to function from the irrigation controller that is programmed as per its owner requirement. In simple words, a decoder listens to the wire sign to wait for its name to be called for starting the irrigation program.
• It can operate different solenoids like 24V AC and DC latching solenoids.
• Most of the time the decoder wires run along with the pipes, thus you don’t have to make a separate trench for them.
• The installation of the entire system is easy; thus, its users need to spend fewer installation charges and even the other materials requirement is less.

In short, having a decoder irrigation system installed in your agricultural field helps thus plan to do it soon.
