WRAS Motorised Ball Valve with Programmable Timer (1 Second – 100 Hours)
The TABVM WRAS approved motorised ball valve combines a high-quality stainless steel ball valve with an integrated programmable digital timer, allowing automatic opening and closing after a user-defined time period.
The built-in controller can be programmed from 1 second up to 99 hours, 59 minutes and 59 seconds, making it ideal for automatic irrigation, timed flushing, legionella prevention, water management and safety shut-off applications.
Programming is carried out using the front-mounted digital display and push buttons, allowing the valve to be configured in minutes without specialist equipment. The actuator can start in either the open or closed position and includes manual override, visual position indication and IP67 weather protection.
WRAS approved materials make the valve suitable for potable water installations and drinking water systems.

Programmable Timer
The integrated digital controller allows precise timed operation without the need for an external PLC or timer relay.
Programming range:
1 second → 99 hours 59 minutes 59 seconds
Users simply enter the required ON and OFF times using the front panel buttons and digital display.
The controller allows independent programming of:
✓ Valve OPEN time
✓ Valve CLOSED time
✓ Start position
Operating Modes
Start OPEN
The valve opens immediately when powered.
After the programmed ON time has elapsed, the valve closes automatically.
Start CLOSED
The valve remains closed when powered.
After the programmed delay, the valve opens automatically.
The start position can be selected directly from the controller display.
Available Versions
Standard Version
Power removed → valve remains in its last position.
Power restored → programmed cycle restarts.
Auto Return Version
Power removed → valve automatically returns to its programmed start position.
Suitable where a defined fail-safe position is required following power loss.
Optional Features
Digital timer display
Visual valve position indication
Programmable Start OPEN or Start CLOSED
Volt-free fully open and fully closed feedback switches (optional +E2)
Typical Applications
Automatic irrigation systems
Landscape watering
Timed flushing systems
Legionella prevention
Rainwater harvesting
Water treatment systems
Cooling water systems
Chemical dosing
Tank filling
Automatic drain systems
Water conservation
Industrial process control
Automatic shut-off systems
Why Choose the TABVM Timer Ball Valve?
Unlike conventional motorised valves that simply open or close on command, the TABVM incorporates a fully programmable timer within the actuator. This removes the need for separate timers or external control equipment, reducing installation costs while improving reliability.
Its WRAS approved construction, stainless steel valve body and IP67 actuator make it an excellent choice for potable water installations, outdoor systems and industrial automation where accurate timed water control is required.
