Product Details

This indoor-mounted timer is so easy to use you can forget the instructions. Its intuitive zone-by-zone scheduling allows you to set watering times differently for each area of the yard, providing greener results with less water. By turning the dial to each zone, you can easily set custom days of the week, odd or even days, or a cycle number of days independent of all other zones. You can also set up to four different custom watering times of the day to water slopes and clay soils in short intervals to allow water to soak in and avoid runoff. Each zone's settings can be reviewed quickly with easy to read LED indicator lights.
  • Compatible with outdoor or indoor use with a power cord that can be removed for direct wiring to power source
  • Simple zone-by-zone setting allows you to customize watering schedules for each area of your yard
  • One-touch seasonal adjustments allow you to increase watering in hot, dry months and reduce it in rainy periods
  • Rain Delay suspends watering for up to 72-hours; when delay ends programming automatically resumes
  • Works with most irrigation valve models that use 24 VAC
  • Long lasting durability with superior surge protection
  • Supports a master valve or pump start relay and a rain sensor
  • Lighted buttons allow you to review settings at a glance

    Q:I have an old rainbird ESP Modular Controller and the LCD display is not longer readable. Can I easily replace the ESP Controller with the Rainbird Controller Model# SST600Out ?
    by|Nov 19, 2023
    1 Answer
    Answer This Question

    A:  If you're looking for a standard (i.e., non-WiFi) controller that can accommodate an outdoor or indoor installation and up to six zones/stations, then the Rain Bird SST600 is an ideal alternative to a legacy Rain Bird controller. However, if you're looking for a controller that has WiFi capabilities so all operations can be take place with your mobile device from anywhere, then we'd recommend looking at the ARC8 Smart WiFi Controller. If you would like additional help with product selection or setting up and operating a Rain Bird controller, please feel free to contact our technical support at 1-800-RAIN BIRD (800-724-6247) and we’d be more than happy to assist.

      Q:Is it true you have to remove the unit to replace the backup battery?
      by|Oct 18, 2023
      1 Answer
      Answer This Question

      A:  Rain Bird SST series controllers feature an internal battery that is turned on when the timer is first installed and the yellow tab is pulled. While not replaceable, this battery does not power the timer in the case of a power failure during a scheduled water event. Instead, it only keeps the time until the power is restored. All watering programs are stored in non-volatile memory, so the timer will retain watering schedules even in the event of a power outage. If you would like additional help, please feel free to contact our technical support at 1-800-RAIN BIRD (800-724-6247) and we’d be more than happy to assist.

        Q:does this power source connect to an outdoor power plug
        by|Oct 7, 2023
        1 Answer
        Answer This Question

If you would like additional help in setting up or operating the controller, please feel free to contact our technical support at 1-800-RAIN BIRD (800-724-6247) and we’d be more than happy to assist.

          I purchased as it said simple to set. It is not simple to set. For each zone, you have to set a start time. Most timers, you send the run time for each zone and a start time that runs all the active zones one by one. Not with this "simple to set" unit.

          Home Depot had the best price. Easy to install and program. Only minor complaint is, if you connect a rain sensor, there is no indicator that I can see that tells you the status of the rain sensor or whether it's hooked up.

          Very easy install/conversion from my old 8 zone Rainbird controller. The only hard part was grinding out a larger hole for the conduit pipe that holds the wires. Just used 8 of the 12 zones available on this new controller. It is little smaller than old controller, so I have to paint to cover up old paint. Some nice new features too! Love it!

          This product replaced my 14 year old Rain Bird Irrigation Timer. The removal of the old one, was more difficult then the install of the new one. Tip#1; Use wire markers and label each and every wire, especially the ZONE wires. The unit is supplied by 120VAC, where my old unit was 24VAC. So, my Hunter rain sensor could not easily hook up to the new unit. I used my old AC adapter and connected it with this. Summary: This unit is SUPER EASY to INSTALL and SUPER EASY TO PROGRAM. I had it tested and running in far less than one hour. The price is also very good. Enjoy this great SIMPLE to install and setup Irrigation Timer From RAINBIRD.

          I just fully tested the timer on automatic for the first time today and it worked as expected. Rain Bird makes quality products and this one is no exception. It's easy to use and has enough features to allow simple testing in the early stages of installation. Although there are a few things that could have been better I think it deserves a five star rating overall. First off, it did surprise me that watering start times could only be made in 5 minute increments and only 4 times a day. In the heat of the summer here I need at least 6 waterings in the flowerbed per day. Since it's a twelve station unit I have extra stations and a workaround to accommodate my needs and so that turned out to be no problem for me. Another thing is the knockouts which are too solid to be knocked out. I called customer service and was told to use a hammer and screwdriver as a chisel to make the hole. They said they changed them when customers complained that the earlier thin plastic knockouts failed under certain conditions. I said I think they should have left them the way they were or use hole covers. In any event I opted for a hole saw and got the clean look I wanted. One last thing; what is it with all the small print lately? It's showing up in manuals and ads and products like this one. Has epoxy ink become that expensive? Certainly there's room for a 50% increase in the lettering size and it would make it so much easier to read.

          So far this product has lived up to all expectations, but then, I just installed it; ask after several years how what I think about the product for a more reliable review.

          Good Controller and Easy to Use
          I've only had this new controller installed for a couple weeks but so far, I'm very happy with it. It replaced my original Rain Bird controller that lasted about 25 years. I was a little apprehensive about trying to install the new one myself since I don't install irrigation systems and I'm not an electrician. The new one is really easy to install as long as you label the zone wires coming into it. Programming the SST1200 was simple too and it's easy to change days, times, etc. If this lasts anywhere near as long as the old one did, I will be extremely happy.
