Product Overview
The Hunter 458200 is a DC-latching replacement solenoid for compatible Hunter irrigation valves used with battery-operated controllers. It converts a short-pulse signal from a supported NODE or NODE-BT controller into valve opening and closing action without requiring continuous 24 VAC power.
The red and black leads identify the polarity-sensitive latching circuit. Correct polarity, waterproof field splices, and compatibility with the installed valve and controller are essential. This is not a direct replacement for a standard 24 VAC solenoid and should not be connected to a conventional AC station output unless Hunter specifically approves the application.
