Smart Valve Controller Aqara Valve Controller T1
The Aqara Valve Controller T1 is a battery-powered smart water valve controller designed to automate compatible household water valves without additional electrical wiring.
This Zigbee valve actuator supports lever and butterfly valve handles on DN15, DN20 and DN25 pipes. It connects to the Aqara Home app through a compatible Aqara Zigbee hub.
Powered by four AA batteries with up to two years of battery life under specified conditions, the Valve Controller T1 supports scheduled water control and Matter integration through a compatible bridge.
When paired with a compatible water leak sensor and a configured automation, this smart water valve controller can automatically shut off the water supply when a leak is detected. Explore it at Aura Smart Home.
Aqara Valve Controller T1 – Zigbee Smart Water Valve Controller
The Aqara Valve Controller T1 is a battery-powered smart water valve controller designed to automate compatible household water valves.
It attaches to existing supported valves without requiring additional electrical wiring.
This Zigbee valve actuator connects to a compatible Aqara Zigbee hub for smart control through Aqara Home.
The controller supports DN15, DN20 and DN25 pipe sizes with compatible lever and butterfly handles.
Valve Compatibility
The Valve Controller T1 is designed for compatible lever-handle and butterfly-handle valves.
It supports DN15, DN20 and DN25 pipe sizes.
These sizes correspond to approximately 1/2-inch, 3/4-inch and 1-inch pipes.
Always check handle dimensions, installation clearance and mechanical compatibility.
Zigbee Connectivity
The Aqara Valve Controller uses Zigbee wireless communication.
A compatible Aqara Zigbee hub is required for smart features and Aqara Home app integration.
Once connected, the device can participate in compatible smart home scenes and schedules.
Matter over Bridge Support
The controller supports Matter integration through a compatible Aqara bridge.
This allows integration with supported platforms such as Apple Home and Google Home.
Other supported ecosystems may include Amazon Alexa, SmartThings, Home Assistant and Homey.
The controller does not connect to Matter directly.
Available functions depend on the hub, bridge and connected smart home platform.
Battery Power & Efficiency
The controller runs on four replaceable AA batteries.
No permanent electrical connection is required near the water valve.
Its low-power design can provide up to two years of battery life under specified usage conditions.
Actual battery life depends on operation frequency and environmental conditions.
Easy Installation
The smart water valve controller is designed to attach to compatible existing valves.
The included accessory kit supports installation on suitable valve handles.
Electrical wiring is not required for battery-powered operation.
Check the valve dimensions, handle movement and available installation space before mounting.
Professional installation is recommended when valve compatibility is uncertain.
Smart Control & Automation
The Aqara Valve Controller enables smart opening and closing of compatible water valves.
Through Aqara Home and a compatible hub, users can create schedules and supported automation scenes.
These automations can control water supply according to time-based or device-triggered events.
Remote functions depend on the hub and network configuration.
Water Leak Protection Automation
The controller can be used as part of an automated water leak protection system.
When a compatible water leak sensor detects a leak, an automation can close the connected water valve.
Important: The valve controller does not detect water leaks by itself.
Automatic leak-triggered shutoff requires a separate compatible water leak sensor, a suitable hub and configured automation.
Smart Garden Irrigation
The Valve Controller T1 can control a compatible water valve used in a garden irrigation system.
Users can create schedules for opening and closing the water supply.
This allows supported watering routines through Aqara Home and compatible equipment.
Recommended Applications
- Controlling compatible household water valves.
- Automated shutoff with a separate water leak sensor.
- Scheduled garden irrigation.
- Water supply management during vacations.
- Smart home automation and water control scenes.
- Remote valve control with compatible equipment.
