Indispensable as a nutrients and pH controller, water tank level manager or even a security system.

It can control any 12v actuators like water valves or peristaltic pumps, while also analyzing the water solution in your tank thanks to the pH, EC, Temperature and water level sensors.

Refill the tank, recycle the water and even automatically control the nutrients and pH.
 

The Powerful Tank Manager

TankBot is the most versatile and precise module from the GroLab™ family. It could be described as a complete controller that is able to cover all the aspects of tank management. However, this description is not enough because TankBot is much more than that. PH & water temperature regulation, nutrients dosing, water level management, and tank refill/drain are just some examples of the TankBot capabilities.

Power Supplier

TankBot can provide power to all peripherals of your growing environment. It has 4 connectors that support 12VDC~24VDC actuators allowing a wide variety of devices from small water pumps, peristaltic pumps, relays, power contactors, etc.

PH Monitor & Adjustment

This module gives you the possibility to monitor and control the pH. The GroLab™ system programmable procedures offer several options to regulate the pH based on user needs.

EC Monitor & Analysis

TankBot also supports an EC probe extending the monitor and control of your water tank to another level. GroLab™ system can notify you and even react based on the electrical conductivity of the feeding solution.

Water Temperature

TankBot provides all you need to continuously regulate the water temperature ensuring the optimal conditions for your plants to grow.

Nutrients Dosing

Connecting peristaltic pumps on TankBot opens the door to the nutrients dosing domain. GroLab™ system provides all the necessary tools to calibrate the peristaltic pumps and to create procedures to pump the exact amount of milliliters required.

Speed Customization

TankBot provides the capability to customize device speed. This feature can improve the precision even with low-cost devices.

Advance Irrigation

Thanks to the capability of handling actuators, it is possible to create impressive irrigation systems that can independently feed multiple grows.

Tank Level Management

This module supports 4 extra switch sensors of your choice like water level sensors, allowing to continuously monitor the water level of your tanks. With the right peripherals connected to the TankBot, like solenoid valves or water pumps, user can create procedures to automatically drain and refill, allowing a complete tank maintenance.

Manual Control

This module comes with 4 external switches that give the user the ability to manually control all connected peripherals at any time on the spot.

Safety Protocols & Procedures

TankBot allows you to create safety protocols & procedures to avoid risk situations or even react to them in order to minimize the damage. Fires and intrusions are some examples of risk situations this module can handle. The cool-down time feature prevents damage to devices that require some time to cool before being turned back on. All of these options are fully configurable!

LED Indicator

TankBot has a LED that indicates if the module is powered and connected to GroNode (the central module of the GroLab™ system).

Module Communication

TankBot communicates with GroNode (the system's core module) through radio frequency with a range of 25 meters indoors (depending on obstacles) and 100 meters in open spaces. This makes it easy to install the TankBot close to the water tank.
