Beschreibung
The Growlink LINKS valveLINK is an 8-channel 24VAC irrigation valve controller built for growers who want zone-by-zone precision without babysitting a timer bank. Fire valves manually, on a schedule, or let sensor data from your canopyLINK and Terralink substrate sensors trigger irrigation automatically through Growlink Copilot crop steering.
Why growers choose valveLINK
- Eight independent channels: Run up to eight 24VAC irrigation valves off one controller, each with its own tailored watering schedule for different crop zones.
- Manual, scheduled, or sensor-triggered: Start simple with manual or scheduled control, then layer in sensor-based automation as your setup grows.
- Growlink Copilot ready: Feed live substrate and canopy data straight into automated crop steering — no separate irrigation timer required.
- Rugged, durable build: Engineered for demanding commercial and home-grow environments where reliability matters more than anything else.

Part of the Growlink LINKS Ecosystem
LINKS is Growlink's modular grow-room hardware system: small, purpose-built devices that each do one job well, and click together into a whole-facility control network. canopyLINK handles monitoring — pulling climate, canopy, and substrate sensor data into one place — while valveLINK (this device) handles irrigation, driving your solenoid or ball valves on schedule or by sensor trigger. Every LINKS device can run wirelessly on its own over Wi-Fi, but connect them to the HUB over a wired RJ-45 connection and you unlock whole-room automation, longer signal range, and the ability for the HUB to power and enable additional LINKS hardware across the facility.

Powered by Growlink OS
"Run cultivation from a system that learns."
Every valveLINK connects into Growlink OS, the cultivation management portal that turns your best irrigation practices into living Blueprints — standardised schedules and automation logic you can roll out across every room. Growlink OS includes Nova, Growlink's built-in AI, which compares performance across rooms, flags deviations from plan, and answers questions about crop performance without you having to dig through spreadsheets.
