The C36Q is the next step in our weather-responsive irrigation range, offering quieter operation, improved efficiency and greater flexibility for larger growing setups. Designed to water automatically according to sunlight levels, it delivers more water in sunny conditions and less in dull weather, helping plants get the right amount of water with minimal input.
Ideal for larger greenhouse, nursery and kitchen garden use, the C36Q can handle up to 36 x 20 litre pots or 72 x 10 litre pots, making it well suited to tomatoes, peppers and other container-grown crops. With improved mounting options, a quieter SPVQ pump, upgraded drippers and a more advanced water level sensor, the Q Series is built for reliable, efficient watering throughout the growing season.

Improved dripper design
The new three-element drippers deliver 1 litre per hour and are designed for better performance across the watering network. They feature a longer outlet for easier connection to seep hose kits, a built-in 4mm stopper, and a flow arrow to help ensure correct installation.
A 20 dripper extension kit is available separately for expanding your system.
Flexible installation and control
The C36Q can be mounted from either the front or rear, giving greater freedom when positioning the unit on a wall, shed, post or greenhouse glass. The solar panel can also be adjusted depending on the mounting position for the best possible exposure.
The hand control module includes an LCD display and red/green LED indicators for easier operation and fault diagnosis, while allowing the main controller to be installed somewhere less accessible if needed.
Water level monitoring
The upgraded three-probe water level sensor gives an audible alert and error code when the water source is running low, helping you top up before it runs empty. The unit will not attempt to operate when there is no water available.
