TrolMaster 16ft Extension Cable for AMP-2 Sensor Board (ECS-4)

TrolMaster 16ft Extension Cable for the Aqua-X Sensor Link

The ECS-4 is a plug-and-play extension lead for the TrolMaster Aqua-X irrigation control system. It runs 16 ft, with a male connector on one end and a female connector on the other. That layout lets it sit in line with the signal cable that joins the sensor board to the Aqua-X controller. The board is the bridge that carries pH, EC and water temperature readings from the reservoir probes to the controller screen. Because the board has to sit near those probes, this cable is what lets the controller live somewhere drier and easier to reach. Both ends match the mini-DIN style system port on the board, and the keyed plugs seat only one way. The cable is rated for a working range of 32 to 122°F and up to 90% humidity. It ships as a single cable in a 156 x 83 x 30 mm package, weighing about a third of a pound. No adapter, splice or crimping is needed. TrolMaster covers it with a three-year warranty.

Placing the AMP-2 Sensor Board and Controller Apart

Reservoir rooms are wet places, and the board itself should never sit where water or excess heat can reach it. In a typical install the sensor board mounts on the wall beside the tank, close to the pH and EC probes. The controller usually belongs outside the splash zone, often in a hallway, an electrical room or at the end of a row. This extension closes that gap without moving the probes or lengthening their own leads. Route it along the wall or a cable tray rather than across the floor, where carts and hoses can pinch it. Leave a small drip loop before each connection so water running down the cable falls away from the plug. Push the connectors fully home, because a half-seated plug can drop readings now and then. The honest limit is that this lead serves the board-to-controller link only. It is not a probe extension, so the pH and EC sensors still reach the board on their own cables. Plan the controller position before drilling any mounting holes, so the run stays within reach.

Key Features

• 16 ft Run: The extra length moves the controller well away from the reservoir splash zone.
• Male to Female Ends: The cable plugs in line with the existing sensor board signal cable.
• Plug and Play: No splicing, crimping or tools are needed to add it to a running system.
• Aqua-X Compatible: It is made for the AMP-2 sensor board of the TrolMaster Aqua-X irrigation control system.
• Wide Working Range: It is rated for 32 to 122°F and up to 90% humidity.
