Document check only; not a hands-on test or verification of every regional or firmware variant.

Catalog note

Matter over Wi-Fi, certified by the CSA in January 2025 (Matter 1.0). The certification lists the control module as a WIFI Relay Controller Board with the On/Off cluster, so a Matter app may show the valve as a switch or plug rather than as a water valve.
