TEMPO HYBRID: INNOVATION IN WATERING, BY CLABER
The sun, like water, is indispensable to the life of plants, flowers, and the whole of Nature. And now, it is also a source of clean and free energy used to power the new Claber timer for watering gardens, patios and vegetable plots: TEMPO HYBRID.
The design of TEMPO HYBRID features a built-in photovoltaic panel that absorbs solar energy and stores it in a next generation super-capacitor. It also has a buffer battery that will guarantee continuous operation, in any weather conditions.
Immediately ready-to-use, without the need to wait for the capacitor to charge, TEMPO HYBRID is at the forefront in terms of care for the environment, reliability, versatility and ease of use. This is reflected in a large backlit display that makes the programming of the preferred watering cycles easy, using just two buttons.

Features
From Claber research, a timer at the forefront in terms of care for the environment, versatility and reliability. The built-in photovoltaic panel exploits a clean and infinite source of energy — sunlight — whilst the internal 1.5 V battery ensures continuous operation, in any weather conditions. Tempo Hybrid water timer is immediately ready-to-use and ensures maximum versatility and ease of programming. The backlit display features high readability and allows total control over the different functions. Tested and inspected to ensure trouble-free and reliable operation, the device is set for the connection to the Rain Sensor (also as wireless RF version) that will suspend the current programme in case of rain and resume it when the weather turns fine again.
- operated by solar energy
- fitted with buffer battery for maximum reliability
- shock- and weatherproof
- ¾” tap connector with pivoting ring nut
- high visibility backlit display

Dalla passione e dalla ricerca Claber
TEMPO HYBRID è stato sviluppato e collaudato dalla Scuola dell’Acqua, il centro di ricerca eco-sostenibile Claber, impegnato nella ricerca di sempre nuovi prodotti per l’irrigazione domestica e professionale, la diffusione di una nuova “cultura dell’acqua” e la tutela del territorio.
Inoltre, come tutti i prodotti Claber, viene realizzato in italia, in uno stabilimento certificato di Qualità Totale UNI EN ISO 9001 ed all’avanguardia nel risparmio energetico, nella raccolta differenziata e nell’utilizzo di materie prime selezionate e riciclabili.
Ecco perché scegliere TEMPO HYBRID, significa avere la garanzia di un prodotto completamente Made In Italy, creato da un’azienda di riferimento nel mondo dell’irrigazione.
Alimentazione ibrida: energia solare e batteria
Il sole è una fonte di energia illimitata e non inquinante, ma non sempre si può sfruttare al 100%. Per questo TEMPO HYBRID, oltre a un pannello fotovoltaico ad alta efficienza che trasforma i raggi del sole in elettricità, è dotato di una normale batteria stilo AA, con funzione di riserva di energia sempre disponibile.
Grazie alla sua doppia sorgente di alimentazione, TEMPO HYBRID è subito pronto all’uso e garantisce sempre le massime performance, in qualunque condizione meteo. Il consumo della batteria è minimo e perciò ne basta una sola, per un’intera stagione: un vantaggio in più, anche per l’ambiente.
Per il collegamento senza fili con Rain Sensor RF
L’acqua è una risorsa naturale da rispettare e amare, oltre a rappresentare un costo non indifferente in bolletta. Con TEMPO HYBRID si può programmare facilmente l’irrigazione al mattino presto ed alla sera, evitando che il calore del sole faccia evaporare inutilimente l’acqua.
E se piove? Nessun problema, Claber ha pensato anche a questo. TEMPO HYBRID è già predisposto per il collegamento immediato con il sensore di pioggia RAIN SENSOR RF. Non occorrono collegamenti elettrici: basta posizionare RAIN SENSOR RF in un luogo aperto ed esposto alle intemperie, utilizzando l’apposita staffa in metallo inossidabile.
