Solenoid Valve Controller Milesight UC512 IoT LoRaWAN 868MHz, model UC512-DI-868M

The Milesight UC512 is a solenoid valve controller with LoRaWAN IoT connectivity operating at 868 MHz. Model UC512-DI-868M is designed for remote on/off control and status monitoring of solenoid valves in applications such as smart metering, irrigation systems and industrial automation. The device communicates over long-range, low-power LoRaWAN networks and supports remote management and diagnostics to reduce site visits and simplify commissioning and maintenance.

Advantages

The UC512 provides reliable wireless control and real-time status reporting, enabling centralized management of distributed valve assets. Low-power operation and LoRaWAN compatibility allow long battery life and extensive coverage, while remote diagnostics and configuration simplify troubleshooting. The compact, rugged design supports installation in a variety of outdoor and indoor environments and reduces the need for wired infrastructure.

Suitable for

• Irrigation systems and agricultural water control
• Smart water and gas metering shut-off valves
• Industrial process control and remote valve actuation
• Municipal infrastructure and leak isolation applications

Key specifications

• Wireless protocol: LoRaWAN at 868 MHz
• Functionality: Remote on/off control and status monitoring for solenoid valves
• Power: Low-power design optimized for battery operation
• Interfaces: Digital input for valve status and control signaling
• Environmental rating: Suitable for indoor/outdoor installation with rugged housing
• Remote features: Over-the-air configuration and diagnostics support

How to use

Install the UC512 near the solenoid valve and connect the device according to the valve manufacturer’s wiring instructions, using the digital input and control terminals. Provision the controller into a LoRaWAN network server and configure device settings through the network management interface to enable remote control and reporting. Verify communication and test on/off commands and status feedback before final commissioning.

Recommendations

Place the controller to ensure good radio visibility to the LoRaWAN gateway and protect it from direct water exposure. Use recommended battery types and schedule periodic remote diagnostics to monitor signal strength, battery level and valve status to prevent unexpected downtime.
