Valve Controller with Manipulator

Gas/Water Valve Controller with 12VDC Manipulator

INTRODUCTION:

• • • Smart Gas/Water Valve Controller and 12VDC motorized manipulator converts a ball-type (only) gas or water valve to smart control

FEATURES:

• • • The self-contained and outdoor-rated Controller is compatible with 12V DC ball valve manipulators (ball valve type only, existing or new, but not smart)
    • No Power, No Wiring Required: 12VDC self-powered wireless control does not require 120V power, an outlet, wall wart or wiring!
    • Remote status and control with the convenient YoLink app
    • YoLink Control allows for the Gas/Water Valve Controller to be controlled directly by a YoLink Water Leak Sensor 1 or 2, for continued operation without an internet connection, even without AC power!
    • YoLink’s industry-leading long range communication allows for operation in larger homes and in areas difficult for other wireless systems, such as basements, separate garages/structures, and even outside your home
    • Amazon/Google Assistant and IFTTT integration

BENEFITS:

• • • Remote control of your gas and water valves; turn your gas or water off or on remotely, from anywhere at any time, using the YoLink app
    • Remotely check on the on/off status of your valves, using the YoLink app
    • The extended environmental range allows for outdoor use in some climates and applications (refer to Technical Specs, below, and to the installation manual for more information)
    • Extremely easy and fast installation using the YoLink app with Scan & Play
    • As part of your long-range/low-power YoLink smart home system, enjoy the reliability and carefree operation with Gas/Water Valve Controller batteries that can last 2.5 or more years

APPLICATIONS:

• • • Remotely turn the gas or water on or off at your condo, rental property, summer/winter home while not in use
    • Prevent unauthorized use, by turning off gas and water lines
    • Use the YoLink Water Leak Sensor to automatically shut off the water when a leak is detected, preventing costly damages (Water Leak Sensor sold separately)
    • Shut off water to your lawn sprinkler system during the winter months, preventing water from freezing in the pipes
    • Automate pet and livestock watering, with remote control and preset schedules (consider pairing your water valve controller with the Water Leak Sensor 2 with water level detection)

SUGGESTED PRODUCTS:

• • • YoLink Hub is required. Starting your first YoLink system? Consider one of our kits
    • Pair your Gas/Water Valve Controller with the original Water Leak Sensor or the new Water Leak Sensor 2 to automatically shut off the water when a leak is detected
      
    • Pair your Gas/Water Valve Controller with the YoLink Remote for hard-to-reach control, adding convenience to your life
    • Applicable Water Pipe Size: ½ inch (DN15), ¾ inch (DN20), 1 inch (DN25); For the Pipe Sizes larger than 1 inch, you need to order an extra bracket

REQUIREMENTS:

• • • PLEASE NOTE! A YoLink Hub is required, along with an internet connection (wired Ethernet or 2.4GHz Wi-Fi). Connecting the Hub to your router or switch with the included Ethernet “patch cord” is recommended, for Plug, Plug & Play easy set-up and reliable operation with no dependence on WiFi or additional router or smartphone settings (changing passwords, etc). Refer to the Hub user guide for additional information
    • Smartphone or tablet running iOS 9 or higher, Android 4.4 or higher
    • PLEASE NOTE! Your ball valve MUST be in good working order and it must move freely from opened to closed with little resistance and requiring no force or effort to move in either direction. Any mechanical problems with your ball valve will not be corrected by this product! Consider replacing your existing valve with a new one, or consider installing our new line of Motorized Valves with the YoLink Valve Controller
