Retrofit-Motor for Ball Valves for LoRaWAN
Product number:
BVSLWE01
This motor converts existing and installed ball valves into intelligent water control devices. Thanks to the innovative clamp mechanism, it can be installed on shut-off valves with a pipe diameter between 0.5 and 1.5 inches within minutes, without the need for additional tools, and can be removed just as easily. A patented coupling mechanism allows for torques of up to 8 Nm, enabling it to function even with rusty and old valves.
The servo motor is waterproof and can be used in damp, dirty, and outdoor environments. In the open position, the motor automatically performs valve training once a week (closing/opening by 1/8 turn to remove dirt and scale). The device is also capable of measuring the rotation angle and detecting the end positions of the lever. It approaches the end positions slowly to avoid friction and unnecessary mechanical stress. It is powered by an external 12V power supply through a waterproof coupling. A wired leakage sensor can be directly connected to the device. If this sensor detects water, the valve is shut off.
The device is controlled via local buttons and remotely using LoRaWAN commands and it operates as a LoRaWAN Class C device. The use of the device requires LoRaWAN network coverage. Otherwise, you need to install and operate your own LoRaWAN gateway. For
direct coupling to an Aqua-Scope Monitor AQSWIE02 please use BVSLWE02. Please refer to the Installation Requirements for the retofittable motor.
