Rugged, fully waterproof 8-station irrigation controller designed for remote or valve-box installations where AC power isn’t available. The Toro DDCWP-8-9V runs on two standard 9V batteries and uses a potted DC latching solenoid for low-power, reliable valve actuation. Its sealed enclosure and digital dial make programming simple while protecting electronics from moisture and debris. IP68-rated waterproof and submersible — suitable for installation inside valve boxes (submersion to approximately 1.9 m). Battery-powered — operates on two 9V batteries (not included); typical active watering capacity around 4 hours; actual lifetime depends on station run times and frequency. DC latching solenoid compatibility — works with Toro DCLS-P and equivalent 9V DC latching solenoids for energy-efficient valve control. Flexible programming — three independent programs with three start times each; supports 7-day, 14-day, odd/even day schedules and a 365-day calendar with monthly seasonal adjustment. Built-in diagnostics and protection — self-diagnosing circuit breaker detects and isolates faults to protect the controller and valves. Compact, serviceable design — clear LCD with digital dial, manual station control, master valve/start terminal and wired rain/freeze sensor input. Compact dimensions (5" H x 5 3/4" W x 2" D) and durable construction let you mount the controller in many outdoor and retrofit scenarios. Program retention is maintained when replacing main batteries; consult the included manual for full installation, wiring diagrams, and safety instructions. For valve compatibility, installation guidance and troubleshooting refer to the Toro DDC WP Series user manual and product documentation.
