(SBK) Station Break

Lance Elliott Updated July 22, 2021 1 min read


Note

This type of alert applies to OptiFlow controller only.


When a station break alert occurs, the mainline break threshold was crossed during irrigation. The controller has determined that stations were the cause of the high flow and that the mainline is OK and was not the cause of the high flow.


Possible Causes:

  • A broken sprinkler head
  • A broken lateral pipe


Possible Fixes:

  • Identify the stations in the alert notification on WeatherTRAK central that are registering high flow
  • Locate and replace the broken sprinkler heads
  • Repair the broken lateral pipe
  • Adjust the mainline break threshold


Clearing a Station Break Alert From the Controller:  

1.  Unlock the OptiFlow controller.

2.  Press ALERTS.

3.  Press à until the VIEW FLOW STATUS screen displays.

4.  Press * to clear the alert.
