pFlow VC200-R LoRaWAN Garden Flow Switch (IoT Ball Valve)

Description

Overview

The pFlow VC200-R Garden Flow Switch is a newly researched and developed cloud-controlled IoT valve actuator from Gentos, using LoRa wireless communication technology with support for the LoRaWAN communication protocol. Its long-distance transmission and strong penetration capabilities make it a practical solution for remotely controlling water flow across gardens, farms, and building water systems without running control wiring to every valve point.

As the official authorized partner and exclusive regional representative for pFlow Gentos, Seven Star LLC proudly supplies the VC200-R to farm irrigation operators, household water management projects, and building water system integrators across the Sultanate of Oman, Muscat, and the wider GCC. With cloud server connectivity, users can remotely control the IoT valve actuator from their PC or smartphone, helping people manage water systems efficiently and sustainably.

Operating Principle

The pFlow VC200-R enables users to open or close the valve, and also allows for percentage adjustment from 0% to 100%, giving precise control over water flow rather than a simple on/off function. This graduated control helps users save water resources and supports more environmentally conscious irrigation and water management practices.

The valve’s LoRaWAN connectivity allows it to be controlled and monitored remotely using a smartphone via the MeterTube mobile app, making it suitable for applications where fluid flow control is required across dispersed locations, such as plumbing, irrigation systems, and light industrial processes.

Engineering Design of the pFlow VC200-R

The pFlow VC200-R is available in copper valve bodies from DN15 to DN32 and stainless steel valve bodies from DN15 to DN25, with a 2-way internal thread G connection method. The valve features stable performance, high sensitivity, and anti-electromagnetic interference, and can withstand operating pressure up to 1.0MPa with a medium temperature rating up to 100°C.

Powered by a DC5V supply with a maximum power draw of 3W, the actuator delivers 2Nm of output torque and carries an IP65 enclosure rating for outdoor garden and farm installations. LoRa communication operates at a maximum transmit power of 22dBm across a temperature range of -40°C to 85°C, supporting the LoRaWAN protocol for long-range, low-power wireless control.

Key Features

The pFlow VC200-R combines precise flow control with long-range wireless connectivity. Core capabilities include:

  • Cloud-controlled IoT valve actuator with LoRaWAN wireless communication support.
  • Remote open/close control plus percentage adjustment from 0% to 100% via MeterTube app.
  • Long-distance transmission with strong penetration capabilities for rural and outdoor sites.
  • Available in copper (DN15-DN32) and stainless steel (DN15-DN25) valve body materials.
  • Operating pressure rating up to 1.0MPa with medium temperature up to 100°C.
  • IP65-rated enclosure suitable for outdoor garden and farm irrigation environments.
  • Stable performance with high sensitivity and anti-electromagnetic interference design.
  • 2Nm output torque with low-power DC5V, 3W maximum power supply.
  • rn t

  • Suitable for both new irrigation installations and retrofits onto existing garden plumbing.

Industrial Applications

The pFlow VC200-R is well suited to farm irrigation, household water management, building water management, and aquaculture applications across Oman, where remote valve control helps conserve water resources and reduce the need for manual site visits. Its LoRaWAN connectivity is particularly valuable for large agricultural properties and garden irrigation networks spread across wide areas where running control wiring to every valve would be prohibitively expensive.

As the officially authorized partner for pFlow Gentos, Seven Star LLC distributes the VC200-R to agricultural cooperatives, residential developments, and aquaculture facilities throughout the Sohar and Salalah economic zones and the broader GCC region, supporting efficient, remotely managed water distribution.

Why Choose Seven Star LLC for Remote Irrigation Valves

Farms and garden estates in Oman’s more remote wilayats often lack reliable cellular coverage, making the VC200-R’s long-range LoRaWAN connectivity genuinely useful rather than a marketing feature — but only if the gateway and frequency band are set up correctly from the start. Seven Star LLC’s engineers confirm regional frequency band configuration and help plan gateway placement before valves ship, so growers get dependable remote control across dispersed plots rather than intermittent connectivity.

As the officially authorized partner for pFlow Gentos, we also advise on copper-versus-stainless valve body selection based on actual water chemistry and pressure conditions, and can coordinate multi-valve orders for farms and estates standardizing remote irrigation control across Oman and the wider GCC, and can advise on IP65 enclosure suitability for coastal sites with higher humidity exposure.

About brand

Clamp-on ultrasonic flow measurement is what pFlow does. The sensors strap to the outside of the pipe and measure liquid flow by transit time, so the line is not cut and nothing touches the fluid. The brand comes from Gentos, an instrument maker focused on ultrasonic flowmeters, flow sensors and heat and cooling energy meters.

Seven Star LLC is the pFlow agency for Oman and the GCC, listing pFlow ultrasonic flowmeters in fixed, portable and LoRaWAN versions, BTU meters and LoRaWAN flow control valves.

pFlow flowmeter families

Most of the listed models are compact clamp-on sensors grouped by pipe size and duty. The GF family (GFCL, GFR, GF-S-CL, GF-SH-CL for hot water and GF-GH-CL for immersion cooling) and the MF micro flowmeters (MFR, MFCL) serve cooling and process loops on small and medium pipes. The MP series are plug-and-play flow sensors, including the MP801 and a LoRaWAN version. The D116-BTU is a wall-mounted ultrasonic BTU meter, the P116 a portable flowmeter for surveys, and the F8 a fixed meter used in aquaculture. Gentos also builds the F3 series clip-on flowmeters, including a panel-mount version. The VC200-R is a LoRaWAN ball valve that works as a flow switch.

Where pFlow meters are used

The manufacturer documents use in liquid cooling for data centers and semiconductor plants, chilled and hot water metering in central air conditioning, water supply networks and irrigation, aquaculture, and utility lines in petrochemical and power plants.

Ordering a pFlow ultrasonic flowmeter: what we need

Clamp-on meters are selected from pipe data. Send the pipe outside diameter, wall thickness and material, any liner, the liquid and its temperature, the expected flow span and the straight pipe length available. Add the output you need (4-20 mA, pulse, Modbus, LoRaWAN) and the supply voltage. For BTU meters include the supply and return temperature span.
