Sprinkler Device

Device Category: sprinkler

The Sprinkler device represents an irrigation system designed to control water flow and monitor environmental conditions to optimize watering.


Required Channels

These channels are mandatory for the functionality of the sprinkler:

ChannelDescriptionMultipleDetails
valveControls fluid or gas valves, managing open/close states or flow rates.NoSee details
device_informationProvides metadata about the device, including manufacturer details, model information, and operational statuses.NoSee details

Optional Channels

These channels are optional and provide additional features:

ChannelDescriptionMultipleDetails
electrical_energyMeasures the total energy consumption over time, typically reported in kilowatt-hours (kWh).NoSee details
electrical_powerReports real-time power metrics such as voltage, current, and wattage for monitoring and diagnostics.NoSee details
flowMonitors the rate of fluid or air flow, typically measured in cubic meters per hour (m3/h).NoSee details
humidityMeasures the relative humidity in the environment, reported as a percentage.NoSee details
leakIdentifies the presence of water or other liquids to detect leaks and prevent damage.NoSee details
pressureReports atmospheric or liquid pressure values, typically measured in pascals (kPa).NoSee details

Use Case Scenarios

  1. Irrigation Control:

    • Open and close water valves to control watering zones. Schedule watering times based on needs.
  2. Environmental Monitoring:

    • Monitor soil humidity and adjust watering based on conditions.
  3. Water Management:

    • Track water flow and pressure for efficient water usage.

Developer Notes

  1. The valve channel is required for water flow control.
  2. Humidity sensors can measure soil moisture for smart irrigation.
  3. Flow monitoring helps detect leaks or blockages.
