General Information
This product complies with the BS EN 1111:1999 (HP) thermostatic mixing valve standards and
satisfies the requirements of the Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations 1999 and current
bylaws.
Designed to be used within systems designed to BS 6700.
BS 6700 recommends the temperature of stored water should never exceed 65ºC. A stored water
temperature of 60ºC is considered sufficient to meet all normal requirements and will minimise
the build up of lime scale in hard water areas (see Map of Hard Water Regions in the UK on page
24).
If the shower valve is installed at low pressure (tank fed), then the minimum distance from the
highest installed position of the showerhead to the underside of the cold tank should be at least
2 metres to ensure adequate performance.
These shower valves should be installed in compliance with the Water Regulations. For further
details contact you Local Water Authority.

Specifications
Inlet Connections: G ½" male thread with 135-165mm centres
Operating Pressure Range: Minimum. 0.2bar, Maximum5.0bar.
Maximum Static Pressure:10.0bar.
Note: Nominally equal (balanced) inlet supply pressures are required for optimum performance. If
pressures are unequal, then apressure reducing valve should be used.
Maximum recommended imbalance between hot and cold supply should not exceed aratio of 5:1
Maximum Outlet Temperature: Factory pre-set to 38ºC with push button override to46ºC (can
be re-set to suit site conditions or personal preference).
Supply Requirements:
Minimum cold water supply temperature: 5ºC
Maximum cold water supply temperature: 25ºC
Maximum hot water supply temperature: 80ºC
(a maximum hot water supply of 55-65ºC is recommended for ablutionarypurposes).
Note: The inlet hot water temperature must be at least 10ºC above the required blend
temperature (e.g. outlet temperature 43ºC: Minimum hot supply53ºC).
Note: Valves operating outside these conditionscannot be guaranteed by the Scheme to operate
as Type 2valves.

temperature to 38ºC.
To obtain ahigher water temperature,
press / slide the button on handle (2)
and continue to turn the controlto the
desired temperature.
Safe Touch Feature

This shower valve is suitable for use with
the following water supply systems.
•Gravity Fed Hot and Cold
(pressure Balanced)
•Gravity Fed Hot and Mains Cold
(differential pressure –seeSpecification
section on page5.
•Instantaneous Water Heater
(combination boiler)
•Unvented System
•Pumped System
Gravity Fed Hot and Cold
Important: If you install this shower
valve with a gravity fed system, there must
be a minimum head (vertical distance)
from the underside of the cold water
storage tank to the showerhead positionof
at least 2metres.
Note: Pumped system (with Essex flange)
If you install this shower valve to a pumped
gravity fed system where the minimum
head (vertical distance) fromthe underside
of the cold water storagetankto the top of
the hot water cylinder is less than 1 metre
we recommend an Essex flange is used as
shown on page 10.
Flushing Pipework
Important: Before connecting the
shower valve (see Installation on pages 13-
20), supply pipework must be flushed to
clear debris before connecting the shower
valve. Debris will reduce the performance
and life of theshower.

Requirements or Notes.
IRN R040 -Schedule 2-15 (1): The fitting shall
be installed so that its outlet discharges above
the spill-over level ofany fixedappliance as
indicatedbelow:-
For backflow protection in domestic or
installations up to, and including, Fluid
Category 3.
If the fitting cannot be installed as indicated in
the table opposite it shall be installed aseither
aor bbelow:
a: with an approved double check valve
assembly or some other no less
effective backflow prevention device
immediately upstream of theinlet.
b: so that it draws water by gravity only froma
cistern, or cylinder havinga
permanently open vent pipe, and the
distributing pipe supplies no otherfitting
(other than draining tap) at a lowerlevel.
For backflow protection in premises or
installations up to, and including Fluid
