Rain Bird is taking the convenience of the modular controller a step further with the ESP-LX Modular.

A member of the popular ESP family of controllers, the ESP-LX Modular can fit the specification from a high-end residential installation to a commercial installation. The large display and intuitive programming sequence make this the most user-friendly controller in its class. The spacious cabinet and quick-connect terminal locations make installation a snap. Features like the Contractor Default™ program with restore timer and hot-swappable modules (that’s right, no need to power down!) make service calls more efficient and earn you more money by taking less time!

The ESP-LX Modular also features Smart Cartridges which let you add weather-smart capabilities for the ultimate in water savings. The most accurate weather-smart device of its kind is now available as an add-on cartridge for the ESP-LX Modular. Using real-time weather data from local precision weather stations, the ET Manager Cartridge adjusts watering schedules to reduce water usage by 30-50%. It’s controlled entirely within the ESP-LX interface so there’s no need to program two separate devices.
