KING IT Irrigation Tester and KING ITK Tone Probe Kit
Brand: King Innovation | SKUs: 42024 (KING IT tester) and 42025 (KING ITK kit)
Product Overview
Choose the tester alone or the tester-and-probe kit from the options on this page. Both versions use the KING IT to check irrigation clock output, activate or cycle 24 VAC solenoids, test continuity and send a wire-identification tone. Choose KING ITK 42025 when you also need the included tone probe to follow that signal through a wire bundle; the 42024 tester does not include the probe.
