FLOW PRO: The Smart Thermostatic Head for Building Automation and Energy Efficiency
In a building, the heating system must be easy to control, reliable over time, remotely controllable, and fully integrated with Building Management Systems (BMS). FLOW PRO addresses these challenges with a compact, standalone thermostatic head that is easy to install.
FLOW PRO combines local control, long-lasting battery life, simplified configuration, centralized monitoring, and rugged field performance. Thanks to its connectivity, it integrates with energy management strategies and allows operators to monitor, adjust, and optimize heating system-wide from their building management system (BMS) platform.
A solution designed for apartment buildings, hotels, offices, schools, and commercial buildings.
NODE: Measuring Temperature in the Right Place
The temperature measured at the radiator may be affected by convection, exposure to sunlight, a curtain, or a draft.
FLOW PRO relies on the NODE** remote temperature sensor, which is ideally positioned in the room to measure a temperature that accurately reflects actual conditions, significantly improve control quality, and ensure occupant comfort.
The temperature is measured automatically every 10 minutes to adjust the control system more precisely and maintain a stable temperature over time.
NODE has been issued a calibration certificate by an independent COFRAC-accredited metrology laboratory to ensure reliable control that meets the requirements for commercial buildings.
NODE Remote Sensor
The temperature is measured away from the radiator, directly in the room
Accuracy: ±0.5 °C
Fine-tuning of the thermostatic head to maintain a more stable set temperature
More consistent comfort
Heating control is based on measurements that more closely reflect how occupants feel
L2D1 Radio Link
Direct local communication between NODE and FLOW, without relying on the LoRaWAN network
Continuously adjustable heating, even without the
cloud or a wireless connection
FLOW PRO stores its heating schedules locally. The LoRaWAN thermostatic head therefore continues to regulate the heating even if network connectivity is temporarily unavailable.
The wireless network and the cloud are used to monitor, update settings, and report relevant information. It is not necessary to control each valve in real time.
Adjusting the temperature in 0.5 °C increments allows for finer tuning of the setpoint and improves room-by-room heating control.
Less reliance on the cloud
Control is not based on permanent remote commands
Onboard Scheduling
The heating scenarios are stored in the thermostatic head
Optimized LoRaWAN Network
Radio communications are limited to essential information: status reports, alerts, and updates
Simple setup and quick deployment
FLOW PRO can be configured locally via contactless NFC technology using a smartphone, or remotely via the LoRaWAN radio network. This dual-approach simplifies installation and speeds up commissioning.
For a large fleet, parameters, schedules, and equipment can be configured at the branch office to reduce the time spent on-site during installation.
FLOW PRO is suitable for both renovation projects and multi-site deployments, with phased installation by building, zone, or equipment fleet.
NFC Settings
Simple local configuration via a smartphone, without immediately relying on the LoRaWAN network
On-site survey
5 colored tabs make it easy to identify equipment during installation and maintenance
Simplified Installation
Compatible with a wide range of radiators thanks to the ADAPT** adapter line
Software that is updated remotely
FLOW PRO can receive software updates remotely via the LoRaWAN network.
The installed base thus benefits from security patches, improvements, and new features without the need for routine on-site intervention.
The software update extends the operational life of FLOW PRO for many years and simplifies maintenance for large-scale deployments.
This feature can leverage NAVIXIS, Nexelec’s IoT monitoring software, and its LoRaWAN gateways; featuring a tested and proven end-to-end FUOTA V2 LoRaWAN update pipeline: firmware preparation, network distribution, deployment tracking, and fleet status monitoring.
Remote Update
Deployment of fixes and improvements, compatible with FUOTA V2 LoRaWAN
Continuous Evolution
Adding or optimizing features without replacing hardware
Reduced maintenance
Fewer on-site visits for software operations
Sustainable Park
LoRaWAN thermostatic heads that can be upgraded after installation
Up to 12 years of battery life, without relying on cutting-edge technology
Powered by four professional-grade lithium batteries—tested and validated by Nexelec—the FLOW PRO’s power supply relies on proven, stable, and predictable technology.
The battery life of the LoRaWAN thermostatic head does not depend on a Peltier-effect energy recovery system, whose performance can vary depending on the actual heating conditions of the radiator, the temperature difference, and the aging of the rechargeable battery.
A simple, robust, and fully controlled approach for multi-unit buildings.
Mastered Technology
A proven solution that does not rely on an unreliable Peltier-effect power supply
Less maintenance, greater service continuity
The cost of a LoRaWAN-connected thermostatic head is not limited to its purchase price.
Battery replacements, malfunctions, and service calls have a significant impact on total operating costs.
Battery monitoring tracks energy levels and activates a red indicator light to help anticipate maintenance needs.
With its long battery life, anti-seizing function, open-window detection, manual lock, and remote software updates, FLOW PRO significantly reduces service calls and helps maintain service quality.
Anti-seize
Move the piston regularly to prevent the valve from seizing, even when the heating system is not in use
Open Window Detection
The heating system pauses for 30 minutes in the event of a rapid drop in temperature
Control Lock
Disables the manual adjustment knob to prevent any local changes to the setpoint temperature
Business Continuity
Fewer breakages, less misuse, fewer on-site service calls
NAVIXIS: Building-Wide Heating Monitoring
With the NAVIXIS IoT monitoring software, FLOW PRO can be fully operated remotely.
The web platform allows users to control setpoints, monitor equipment, manage schedules, and analyze the consistency of the control system.
For building managers, NAVIXIS provides a clear overview of the building fleet and facilitates long-term energy optimization.
Remote Programming
Temperature Control and Heating Schedules
Centralized control
Equipment fleet tracking with exception handling: holidays, vacations, specific schedules, or absences
Equipment Tracking
Battery, Condition, Operation, and Useful Operational Information
Configurable Alerts
Remote Maintenance and Prioritization of On-Site Service Calls
Safety, Protection, and Community Use
FLOW PRO is designed for use in multi-unit buildings. Its lockable base with a secure screw prevents unauthorized removal, while the anti-tamper detection feature helps identify on-site anomalies.
For more exposed environments, the transparent CASE** outer shell provides enhanced protection against impacts, tampering, and attempts to disassemble the device.
Protective cover
CASE minimizes impacts, damage, and unauthorized access
Anti-theft protection
Lockable mounting base with a secure screw to prevent unauthorized removal
Anti-tear detection
An alert is triggered if the head is removed from its base

Superior performance for optimal LoRaWAN data transmission
No more data loss!
Historical Data Mode + Redundancy Feature: Measurements and statuses can be grouped into a single LoRaWAN frame to limit the number of radio transmissions and are sent three times to maximize the likelihood of successful reception by the network gateway.
Optimized radio antenna
Designed to ensure reliable radio connectivity, even in harsh environments, while minimizing the thermostatic head’s power consumption to extend its battery life.
Enhanced cyber security
The data transmitted by the product is secured end-to-end using AES-128 double encryption.
A thermostatic head built to last
Nexelec’s commitment to more responsible electronics is part of a structured CSR approach, as recognized by the company’s award of the EcoVadis Bronze medal.
FLOW PRO was designed with this approach in mind: sustainable design, replaceable batteries, remote maintenance, software updates via LoRaWAN, and removable accessories all help extend the product’s lifespan and minimize the need for on-site service calls.
The FLOW PRO thermostatic head was also designed to facilitate maintenance, the replacement of wear parts, and end-of-life disposal, in line with eco-design principles and the goal of reducing environmental impact.
