Plan a commercial two-wire irrigation system around the ESPLXIVM when you need control of up to 60 stations with two-way communication to compatible IVM field devices. Four isolated wire paths and built-in diagnostics help organize and troubleshoot a larger site. This is the standard domestic 120V controller; the 240-station capacity belongs to the optional Pro upgrade.
Key Features
60-station standard capacity with 10 independent programs.
Four isolated two-wire paths.
Two-way IVM communication and wire-path diagnostic tools.
Cycle+Soak, seasonal adjustment and flow-management functions.
Locking, UV-resistant wall-mount cabinet for indoor or outdoor installation.
Common Uses
Commercial landscapes, parks, campuses and sports facilities.
New IVM two-wire systems or compatible system upgrades planned around field-device requirements.
Technical Specifications
Model: ESPLXIVM; domestic 120 VAC version.
Station capacity: 60 standard; optional LXIVM Pro panel upgrade supports up to 240.
Programs: 10; start times: 8 per program.
Station run time: 0 minutes to 96 hours.
Two-wire paths: 4; up to 8 stations may operate simultaneously, subject to system design.
Standard-model support: up to 5 flow sensors, 4 weather-sensor inputs and 5 master valves.
Supply: 120 VAC ±10%, 60 Hz.
Required field equipment uses the compatible IVM system; sensors, valves and communication accessories are selected separately.
Dimensions
Cabinet: 14.32 inches wide x 12.69 inches high x 5.50 inches deep. Allow additional access space for the door, conduit and service work.
Compatibility & Installation Notes
Match the controller with IVM-SOL or IVM Smart Valves and other approved field devices. IVM-OUT interfaces require compatible DC-latching solenoids for third-party valves; ordinary 24 VAC solenoids are not a direct substitute. Flow monitoring needs the appropriate sensor and interface. Plan wire gauge, grounding and IVM-SD surge devices using Rain Bird’s installation requirements. Have mains wiring installed to applicable electrical codes. The removable panel supports programming away from the cabinet under battery power; that does not operate the field valves.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does this controller operate 240 stations as supplied?
No. ESPLXIVM has 60-station standard capacity. Reaching 240 stations requires the optional LXIVM Pro panel upgrade.
Can I connect conventional 24 VAC valves directly to the two-wire path?
No. Use compatible IVM field devices and the required solenoids. Third-party valves connected through IVM-OUT require compatible DC-latching solenoids.
Are flow sensors included?
No. Select compatible flow sensors and the required interfaces separately to use flow-monitoring functions.
Is this the 230V international model?
No. ESPLXIVM is the domestic 120 VAC version. Match the controller supply rating to the installation.
Why Buy from Big Frog Supply?
Choose ESPLXIVM for a 60-station IVM design needing four isolated wire paths and detailed field diagnostics. Its 10 programs and simultaneous-station capability support complex schedules, while the optional Pro panel gives a defined upgrade path when a site needs more than 60 stations.
