Wirevirus BG-WV-1 Runs Two Valves on One Field Wire
The Wirevirus BG-WV-1 single pack adds a second irrigation valve to a wire path that already works, or brings a valve back when its field wire is broken. One module sits at the controller and one sits in the valve box. They are interchangeable, waterproof, and small enough to keep in a service truck.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the Wirevirus BG-WV-1 need batteries?
No. Connect the modules and the controller supplies the circuit. There is no battery to replace in the valve box.
Will BG-WV-1 work with my irrigation controller?
Yes, with a standard 24-volt AC controller. It uses an open station at the clock and the existing field wire, so the two valves keep their own run times.
Can I use a Wirevirus on a master valve?
Yes, when the master valve solenoid stays under the 1-amp limit. Do not use it on a load above 1 amp.
What is in the BG-WV-1 single pack?
Two modules. One goes at the controller and one goes at the valves. Either module can be used on either end, and the leads are 18-gauge copper.
