Retrofit-Motor
for Ball Valves
SKU: BVSDRY01
Version: 1.0
Product Description
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 either through the local button or via a switch input of the existing smart home
system or your alarm system. This switch input is connected to an actuator of your alarm system or
smart home system (Shelly, Z-Wave, Smartthings, Bosch, Homematic, ...) for control.
Installation
1. Make sure that the device is disconnected from the power.
2. Select the correct side of the fork based on the width of the valve handle.
3. Ensure that the two clamping buttons and the handle are pointing in the opposite direction (the
handle must be able to move freely).
