TrolMaster Aqua-X Pro Irrigation Control System

The NFS-2 controller from TrolMaster is one of the most advanced irrigation controllers available today.

The NFS-2 is a multi-functional controller which can control multiple irrigation solenoids and pumps. The NFS-2 can also monitor multiple water sensors that can measure pH, EC / PPM, temperature, and water content sensor.

There is also a new optional DFW-1 flow-meter that serves multiple functions. Each of the solenoids and pumps can be “linked” to work together so that multiple grow areas can be controlled by a single NFS-2. When combined with the optional AMP-3, WCS-1, and WCS-2 sensors and the new DFW-1 flow-meter, the NFS-2 allows the user to monitor up to 50 sensors and receive mobile notifications if a problem is detected by the system.

The NFS-2 was created to allow users to customize their irrigation cycle and be able to control the irrigation events by using either the DFM-1 digital flow-meter, WCS-1 or WCS-2 moisture content sensors or by simple timers. Each device being controlled by the NFS-2 can conceivably have an unlimited number of irrigation “events” each 24 hour day.

Features & Benefits of the Aqua-X Pro

Feed by Volume

Used a DFM-1 with Aqua-X Pro to have accurate measurements of water or a nutrient solution flowing through a fluid pipe. Users can monitor the speed and volume of their irrigation schedules. The Feed by Volume function allows users to set the irrigation schedule to be controlled “By volume”, the DFM-1 will then measure and allow the desired and precise amount of nutrient solution to be dispensed. This unique Feed-by-Volume function offers you an option to feed by controlling the volume of nutrient water used rather than the feeding duration.

Feed On Demand – with WCS-1 & WCS-2

The Aqua-X Pro can automatically water your plants based on that water content reading when used with the Water Content Sensors. Aqua-X Pro constantly measures the water content within the grow-media and will activate the irrigation cycle when the Water Content goes below the user’s pre-selected %. The user can also select the time of day that the Aqua-X Pro will automatically activate the irrigation devices on each of the controlled irrigation outputs. The WCS water content sensors will keep on monitoring the moisture level within the grow medium 24/7.

* The Feed-on-Demand feature works on both the WCS-1 & WCS-2 sensors when used with the Aqua-X Pro.

Multi-Zone Monitoring

The new AMP-3 has been specially designed for the Aqua-X Pro system. The redesigned AMP-3 Sensor Board used standard RJ12 cable in place of the specialized DIN connection used on the AMP-2. The AMP-3 acts as a “bridge” between the sensors (pH Sensor & EC/Temp Sensor) and the Aqua-X Pro Controller with no real limit on the maximum distance between the AMP-3 and the Aqua-X Pro controller. Users can now monitor up to 50 stock water tanks or inline Dosatron dosing systems and control up to 300 pumps/solenoids with an Aqua-X Pro controller. Each pump & solenoid can be set with an individual timer or control settings.

Calendar Control

Build and schedule your entire crop’ s irrigation recipe with the built-in control and calendar presets on the Aqua-X Pro. All settings including pump, valve, water flow and timers can be specified by you as you build your multi-week crop schedules. Reminders can also be programmed to ensure critical tasks are never forgotten.

Auto-Fill -with WD-1 & WD-2

The Auto-fill function on the Aqua-X Pro uses 2 water detectors (WD-1) which will be installed in your nutrient tank. One water detector will be positioned at the bottom of the tank and one at the top of the tank. When the liquid level drops below the bottom sensor, the Aqua-X Pro will activate a solenoid, or pump and the tank will fill back up to the sensor at the top.
