Ajax WaterStop — remote-controlled water stop valve
The Ajax WaterStop tap allows you to remotely shut off the water supply in the room under the control of the Ajax security system. The device combines a high-quality Bonomi Industries valve and an electric actuator with a control unit. The faucet to control the water supply is connected to the control panel via the secure wireless Jeweller protocol. Ajax WaterStop can be controlled remotely from anywhere worldwide simply by accessing the Internet. Ajax's applications for PCs and mobile phones allow you to check the status and change the position of the valve at any time. The water stop valve from Ajax WaterStop will automatically turn off the water in 7 seconds on the alarm of the LeaksProtect water leakage sensor or another water leakage sensor. At the time of an alarm, all users connected to the system and the security company will receive a notification about the alarm and the scenario activation. In addition to the scenario of leakage, it is possible to set the shutdown of water at a particular time or when the security system becomes armed.
Features of Ajax WaterStop remote controlled water shut off faucet
The water stop valve is available in black and white. The device is compatible with pipes for supplying cold and hot water. To shut off the water, an electric drive is used, which is protected from overheating and can operate at temperatures up to 60 °C at the installation site. The built-in tamper alarm reports an attempt to tear the case off the mounting platform. The Ajax WaterStop faucet works with the Jeweller wireless communication protocol, which allows communication with the security system control panel at 1100 m without obstacles. Management and configuration take place remotely using Ajax applications. Jeweller radio technology provides two-way communication between the alarm central and the water shutoff valve and protects the device from forgery with block encryption with a floating key. Also, notifications to the application are sent instantly. The applications for PCs and smartphones also display the current status of the tap to shut off the water: open/closed, the status of the battery charge, external power supply, and communication with the control panel. The radio signal strength is automatically adjusted to reduce power consumption and interference. RF hopping is used to prevent radio interference and jamming. Loss of communication is detected within 36 seconds, this time depending on the settings of the communication technology. The valve has an input for an external power supply of 9 V⎓. The Bonomi Industries valve is included. And it works with a temperature range from -20°C to +170°C. With the help of the valve, the water is blocked in 7 seconds. This value may increase due to contamination of the shutoff valve. There is a lever on the platform to manually shut off the water supply in emergencies. Water supply control does not require tools. There is a button on the body of the electric drive for manual control. When pressed, the shutoff valve opens/closes. LED indication using the color of the LED backlight of the Ajax logo indicates the state of the drive.
