## Overview

The Rain Bird ESP-ME3 is a versatile 4-station irrigation controller expandable to 22 zones, designed for both residential and light commercial use. Featuring non-volatile memory, it retains settings through power outages and supports WiFi connectivity via an optional module for remote management. Integrated with EPA WaterSense certification, it uses internet-based weather data to optimize watering schedules, saving up to 30% water. Compatible with flow sensors, it offers advanced leak detection and system protection, all housed in a durable, easy-to-install unit.

## Description

Comes with 4 stations and expandable up to 22 stations, the ESP-ME3 provides the station count options customers need. Install the same controller on residential and light commercial sites. Add station modules when expanding irrigation without removing or even powering down the controller. Upgrade the ESP-ME3 to a SMART controller with EPA WaterSense certification by adding the LNK WiFi module and a WR2 rain sensor. The LNK makes programming and monitoring easy through the enhanced Rain Bird app. For even greater water monitoring and protection from a broken irrigation system install an optional flow sensor.

Review: Great product, easy to set up and program
Review: Our sprinkler guy referred to our old controller as “the first digital watch”. It was difficult to use with limited capabilities. I thought it would be a huge endeavor to upgrade, but it wasn’t. Our sprinkler guy recommended RainBird, and this model in particular. This RainBird is very easy to hook up and to use. Love that I can pause for x days from my smartphone if rain is in the forecast. Our sprinkler guy said other brands (models?) must have the owner next to him with their smart phone in order for him to do spring/fall open/close tasks. This RainBird can be maintained with our without a smartphone, home owner’s smartphone doesn’t need to be nearby when maintenance is being done.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What unit can I purchase, without add ons, to get six zones? All other models from other companies offer at least six. Thanks,**
A: The Rain Bird ESP4ME3 will cover up to ten zones and doesn't require any additional equipment unless you want to add WiFi capability which is very nice and all functions and programming can be done from a smartphone. I am not knowledgeable about other brand controllers, only the Rain Bird. Hope this helps.

**Q: Can i get the manual (as a pdf file) for the esp-me3 4 statation controller ?**
A: You can download this from the manufacture's site.  Rainbird

**Q: In the manual it says it’s not compatible with hunter psr22 pump start relay. it’s only compatible with specific rain bird pump start relays...??**
A: We know they do work with other brands of pump start relays like the Hunter PSR22 however "officially" I can only say that the Rain Bird manual states otherwise.

**Q: Is this for the esp4me3??  i ordered it and you sent me esp-tm2**
A: Yes, this listing is for an ESP4ME3. If a ESP-TM2 timer was sent then Amazon themselves made a mistake as these are FBA (fulfilled by Amazon).
Please contact me directly to resolve any issues.
