MC-LW-T-VALVE-01

A Ready For Anything® building block for Niagara-based, LoRaWAN water shut-off and leak response

Remote water control that turns “leak risk” into a manageable system.

T-Valve is a LoRaWAN® water valve designed for residential and commercial buildings, enabling remote water supply control and faster response to leaks and flood events — without needing fragile local wiring.

The problem this product exists to solve

In many buildings, a small leak becomes a major incident because detection and response are disconnected. Even when leaks are detected, shutting off water often relies on manual intervention — which can be too late outside working hours or across distributed sites.

This leads to avoidable damage, downtime, insurance claims, and disrupted operations. The issue isn’t plumbing — it’s the lack of a system-level response that remains usable after handover.

When this problem is addressed properly, buildings detect issues earlier, respond faster, and reduce both risk and recovery time.

Why this product is Ready For Anything®

Ready for Today

• Remote water supply control (open/close valve)
• Manual control buttons plus LEDs for device/valve status indication
• Local buzzer for audible feedback
• Measures both water temperature and environmental temperature

Ready for Tomorrow

• LoRaWAN® Class A end-device designed for scalable deployments
• Battery powered with expected battery life up to 10 years (configuration- and environment-dependent)
• FUOTA (Firmware Update Over The Air) for long-term adaptability
• Optional wired flood sensor support for extended leak response strategies

Ready for Security

• LoRaWAN® end-to-end encryption (AES-CTR)
• Housing tampering detection and magnetic tampering detection
• Flood sensor status and wire integrity status (functional vs cut/broken)
• Designed for risk reduction where response speed matters

Ready for Integration

• Open LoRaWAN® protocol with OTAA and ADR support
• Supports request/command operations such as open/close valve and configurable keepalive
• Supported via Innon’s LoRaWAN driver for Niagara
• Avoids lock-in by fitting into multi-vendor BMS architectures

What makes this product different

Many “smart valves” focus on the device, not the operational outcome. T-Valve becomes truly valuable when it is part of a system response — where detection, escalation, and action are coordinated.

• Designed for response, not just monitoring: remote shut-off turns detection into action.
• Built-in resilience features: tamper detection, status indicators, and optional wired flood sensing.
• Scalable retrofit model: LoRaWAN enables rollout across buildings without heavy infrastructure change.
• Fast valve response: open ≤ 0.15s; close ≤ 2s.

Typical applications (where remote shut-off delivers real value)

• Residential buildings: protect risers and zones with controlled shut-off strategies.
• Commercial buildings: reduce leak damage risk in tenant areas, plant rooms, and back-of-house zones.
• Basements and technical spaces: respond quickly where leaks can escalate.
• Portfolio risk management: consistent monitoring and response across multiple sites.
• Environment monitoring: use water and ambient temperature as additional operational signals.

How this fits into a Ready For Anything® Niagara + LoRaWAN solution

On its own, MC-LW-T-VALVE-01 provides reliable remote water shut-off with clear local status.

When integrated into a Niagara-based LoRaWAN architecture, it becomes a core building block in a Ready For Anything® leak response solution — designed to move from “alarm” to “coordinated action”.

In a typical RFA setup:

• A LoRaWAN flood sensor (or the valve’s optional wired flood sensor) detects water presence.
• Niagara applies escalation logic (alerting, acknowledgement, timing rules).
• Niagara can trigger a controlled valve close command to reduce damage risk.
• Status points (valve state, tamper, battery, temperatures) support long-term operability and clearer handover.

This approach avoids isolated alarms, delayed manual response, and systems that become unreliable after commissioning.

From good systems to great outcomes

Many buildings can detect leaks, but cannot respond quickly enough to prevent damage.

Used properly, MC-LW-T-VALVE-01 enables:

• Faster response to leaks and flood events
• Reduced damage, downtime, and remediation costs
• Clearer risk management and site-wide visibility
• A more resilient operational model after handover
