Wireless Valve Control Devices: Wireless Revolution in Agricultural Irrigation and Esular Technology

Traditional agricultural irrigation methods are rapidly giving way to digitalized and automated systems today. Especially in large fields, cable laying costs, labor difficulties, and energy infrastructure deficiencies are among the biggest obstacles for producers. As Esular, the Wireless Smart Valve Control Unit we have developed eliminates these problems and offers a fully independent, solar-powered, and remotely manageable irrigation experience in agricultural lands.

What is a Wireless Valve Control Device?

A wireless valve control device is an electronic hardware that allows valves used in irrigation systems (usually solenoid valves) to be opened and closed remotely via radio frequencies (LoRa/LoRaWAN) without the need for a physical cable connection. The Esular Smart Valve Control Unit can operate for years without the need for an external energy source, thanks to its integrated solar panel and rechargeable battery.

This technology is an ideal solution especially for large agricultural lands, greenhouses, and landscape areas where energy lines do not reach or where laying cables is costly. The device manages irrigation periods by executing commands received from a central station or directly via the cloud system.

Why Should You Switch to Wireless Systems?

The advantages offered by wireless systems to increase productivity and protect resources in agricultural production are indisputable:

• End of Cable Cost: Risks such as laying kilometers of cables, excavating, and cable breakage are completely eliminated.
• Energy Independence: It works without the trouble of electricity bills or line drawing with its self-solar-paneled structure.
• Water and Energy Savings: By working integrated with soil moisture sensors, it provides as much water as the plant needs, achieving up to 50% water savings.
• Remote Management: You can control your valves with a single button via the mobile application without going to the field.
• Flexibility: Thanks to its plug-and-play structure, the system can be easily moved or expanded.

Technical Superiorities and Hardware Features

Developed by Esular engineers, our device is designed to withstand harsh field conditions. Thanks to its IP68 waterproof certification, it is not affected by rain, mud, and humidity. The device works in full compatibility with 9V DC Latch (Latching) Solenoid Valves, maximizing energy efficiency.

Featured technical specifications are:

• Communication Range: Communication up to 10 km in open areas with LoRaWAN technology.
• Valve Outputs: Capacity to control 1, 2, or 4 valves according to need.
• Power Management: Ability to stay active for a long time even on sunless days by operating in Ultra Low Power mode.
• Sensor Integration: Ability to work integrated with soil moisture, pressure, or flowmeter sensors.

Application Areas and Usage Scenarios

Wireless valve control systems offer solutions not only in open field agriculture but in a wide range:

1. Industrial Agriculture: Drip irrigation automation in large area crops such as corn, cotton, and sugar beet.
2. Fruit Orchards: Block-by-block management of under-tree irrigation systems.
3. Landscape and Parks: For municipalities to avoid cabling costs in park and garden irrigation.
4. Greenhouses: For precise irrigation and fertilization automation.

Full Control with Esular Mobile Application

We combine the power of hardware with software. Thanks to the Esular mobile application:

• You can see the status of all valves (on/off) instantly.
• You can create weekly or daily irrigation programs.
• You can define automatic irrigation rules based on sensor data.
• You can track battery status and communication quality.
