As a cutting-edge wireless add-on for the Hunter ICC2 and HCC controllers, the Wireless Valve Link allows for seamless communication directly to the valve box—completely wire-free.

A Smarter, Simpler Way to Work

At the heart of the Wireless Valve Link is LoRa® technology, a licence-free communication system that’s both robust and reliable. It enables connection to up to 54 individual stations plus a master valve, with a line-of-sight range of up to 650 metres—or even further when used with a repeater.

By removing the need for copper wiring, the system not only slashes installation time and expense but also avoids common wired-system issues such as wire degradation and lightning damage.

Key Benefits at a Glance:

Wireless Valve Control: Eliminates the need for copper field wiring, enabling installations across difficult terrains and hard surfaces.

Efficient Setup: Avoid cutting into concrete or boring under paths—ideal for retrofit projects or sensitive landscapes.

Advanced Compatibility: Integrates seamlessly with Hunter’s Centralus™ and Hydrawise™ platforms, and works alongside ICM or EZDS modules for a fully tailored system.

Flexible Expansion: Add new zones or areas without returning to the controller or disturbing existing infrastructure.

Installation, Without the Headache

Whether working on residential gardens or large-scale commercial sites, the Wireless Valve Link enables contractors to work smarter. With no hardwiring required, installation becomes more straightforward and less disruptive—especially in areas with existing hardscapes, roads, or tree roots.

This new solution allows for cleaner, more scalable system design, making it ideal for projects where adaptability, speed, and reliability are critical.

Now available from KAR UK, the Hunter Wireless Valve Link brings the future of irrigation control to the present—streamlining installations, enhancing reliability, and giving professionals more flexibility than ever before.

This landmark agreement solidifies the collaboration between two esteemed Dutch turf machinery manufacturers, utilising their respective strengths to deliver unparalleled value to customers worldwide.

“We are delighted to have reached this agreement with Trilo” said Curtis Allen, Sales Manager for Redexim. “The Trilo range of blowers is renowned for its performance and quality, making it a perfect fit for the Redexim portfolio. With our existing Partners catering to customers in golf, sports turf, municipalities, and similar sectors, incorporating these products into our range was a logical step forward.”

Christiaan Arends, CEO of Vanmac Group, expressed his enthusiasm for the collaboration. “We are happy with this agreement as Trilo wants to focus on our well known trailed vacuum products.

This agreement with Redexim gives us full focus and power to keep developing, producing and marketing the best trailed vacuum machines in the world.”

Groundsman Industries Ready For SALTEX

/in , , , /by

Groundsman Industries Ready For SALTEX: Groundsman Industries have lined up three products from their range that are more than worthy of special attention at the Saltex exhibition. The Northern Ireland manufacturer has a worldwide reputation for durable, high performance equipment and the latest machines affirm this. The Groundsman Turf Multi-Cutters are renowned for their smooth, effortless cutting ability, ease of use and operating comfort. Features and benefits which become obvious within the first few feet of operation.

The two-wheel drive model, the TMC26, is simple to operate and portable, making it ideal for landscapers, contractors and hire outlets, with the cut quality to work in fine sports turf as well. There’s a range of interchangeable sod cutting blades available from 30cm (12”) to 60cm (24”) wide that are adjustable down to 7cm (3”) deep. These are complemented with blades for mole draining, de-compacting, trenching and cable and pipe insertion, down to 15cm (6”) depth. The precision cutting of the rear blade four-wheel drive model, the TMC46, makes it the choice of golf clubs and turf farms.

Groundsman Industries Ready For SALTEX

Groundsman offer a range of pedestrian and tractor mounting turf aerators ranging from 45cm (18”) to 180cm (6ft) working widths. Take the 345HD model and you have a compact, professional pedestrian machine that can access most garden gates and aerate all types of grass including gardens, parklands and fine lawns as well as sports greens. For larger areas the tractor mounting models are available for tractors from 18hp. Rugged, durable and low maintenance, this range has a proven record for reliability, performance and versatility. There is a crank driven elliptical plunge action mechanism that drives the tines into the most compacted surfaces, down to 15cm (6”) deep, with very little surface disruption. Quick change hollow core, solid and slitting tines are available together with tine heads for thatch removal or surface preparation for overseeding.

Also on display at Saltex, the Groundsman Flexblade Core Collector attaches to any aerator, pedestrian or tractor mounted with swath width from 60cm (24”) up to 210cm (83”) to enable you to core and collect in one pass. It’s also available for compact tractors and turf vehicles for follow-up collection of cores and linear aeration soil. The patented Flexblade core collector system was developed by Groundsman Industries and is the most efficient method of collecting cores, wet or dry, with minimum disruption. Attached to an aerator the Flexblade catches more than half the cores before they touch the ground. The remainder are scooped cleanly from the surface by the Flexblade that follows undulations like shovels, for the cleanest possible collection. The holes remain open for top dressing. Trampling and surface disruption are minimised and the greens are quicker back in play. Visit Groundsman Industries at Saltex on Stand No. K078
