TrolMaster Aqua-X Controller ComparisonThe Aqua-X Series is a professional-grade irrigation control system. It is a fully customizable modular-designed system. Installation is simple and the system is easy to expand.
Aqua-X Models
The entry-level Aqua-X (NFS-1) handles up to 30 irrigation zones of 24V solenoid valves or 120V pumps, monitors pH, EC and water temperature, reads up to eight water content sensors, and includes a water detector for leak alerts and watering confirmation. The Aqua-X Plus (NFS-3) upgrades to a 7" touchscreen, controls up to 240 devices, tracks up to 25 sensors including grow medium moisture, temperature and EC, and can use WCS-1/WCS-2 sensor readings to drive automated crop steering, along with Multiple Pump Link functions for pairing pumps and valves. At the top of the line, the Aqua-X Pro (NFS-2) offers a 10" touchscreen, capacity for up to 300 pumps and 300 solenoids, up to 50 sensors and 50 irrigation schedules, and flexible triggering by timer, moisture sensor or the DFM-1 flow meter, with feed-on-demand, feed-by-volume and reservoir auto-fill. Every model connects to the free TrolMaster app, so growers can check settings and receive alerts from anywhere.
Aqua-X Water Monitoring
The TrolMaster pH probes provide accurate and reliable monitoring on the pH of the water being monitored. The PHH probe connects to the main controller via the sensor board AMP-2 or AMP-3. The TrolMaster EC and temperature probes provide accurate and reliable monitoring of the EC and temperature of the water being monitored. The PCT probe connects to the main controller via the sensor board AMP-2 or AMP-3.
