Introduction
Verdi engineers a wireless and battery-powered irrigation controller (Model: Block Controller). It has a 100ms pulse output that can switch a latching relay into an open or closed position.
Therefore, the Verdi Block Controller has the ability to control any pump that can be turned on and off via a dry contact relay.
For diesel pumps, the Verdi Block Controller can be integrated with a Murphy PowerCore® TEC-10 controller. See instructions here.

FAQ
Can Verdi control a VFD?
Yes. Most VFDs have or can be configured to have an input act as a run signal. Verdi’s pump control relay dry contact output can be used with this run signal input to start a VFD in parallel with it’s existing start/stop interface. Please contact Verdi Engineering for confirmation about your specific equipment.
Can Verdi control a booster pump?
Yes. Verdi’s pump control relay can be used with magnetic starters and most VFDs to control booster pumps the same way other pumps are controlled. The Verdi Dashboard can be configured to activate the booster pumps for the designated zones.
