Water Guard (Ball Valve)
Ball valves are today's standard in new builds and renovations. The Water Guard clamps around the operating handle and rotates it 90° — in the event of a leak, in seconds.
A ball valve closes with a quarter turn — from fully open to fully closed. That simple mechanism is reliable, long-lived and largely maintenance-free. The Water Guard grips the existing handle and does the quarter turn for you: automated, from the Aqua-Scope app, from a sensor, from a smart-home rule, or via a dry contact.
The Water Guard fits classical ball valves and butterfly valves — the two most common shut-off body types. For a small number of special cases — non-standard handle geometries, larger commercial butterfly valves, or older body designs — matching adapters are required; find them in the Aqua-Scope shop.

Installation in minutes
The Water Guard wraps around the ball valve handle and is fixed to the valve stem with a clamp. No disassembly, no tools other than a hex key. To remove, release the clamp — the ball valve remains untouched.
Connectivity: LoRaWAN or dry contact
The LoRaWAN variant pairs directly with our LoRa sensors — even in large buildings with deep basements. The dry-contact variant is triggered by a simple switch signal, ideal for connecting to existing building automation systems, fire alarm panels or smart-home hubs with a matching output.
Butterfly valves & special cases
Large butterfly valves typically appear in commercial and industrial installations and in large buildings. A 90° rotation is enough here too — with the correct adapter the Water Guard mounts on this valve family as well. All available adapters are in the Aqua-Scope shop.
