OPERATION
• Valve opens and closes automatically when
hands are presented in the detection zone.
Comfort shut-off delay is 3 seconds.
• Anti-blocking safety: a safety delay ensures
the valve closes after 30 seconds in case of
neglect or if an obstacle is placed in the
detection field. Once the obstacle is removed
the valve operation will reset automatically.
• Anti-Legionella duty flush: automatic duty flush
~ 45 seconds every 24 hours after the last use.
TECHNICAL FEATURES
• Non-return valves (fig. A) are integrated
into the exibles (do not remove).
• Ambient temperature for operation 7°C
minimum.
INSTALLATION
• The plug hole should be off-set from the axis
of the sensor detection zone (fig. A, B) to
avoid self-detection.
• IMPORTANT: Maximum temperature of
water supplied: 70°C.
• Deck-mounted models: drill a Ø 34mm
hole, mount the mixer/tap then tighten the
two screws onto the fixing flange (fig. A).
Ensure a suitable waterproof seal between
the mixer and the work plan appropriate to
the type of installation.
• It is essential to install the filters supplied
(fig. A), to protect the non-return valves
in the mixer. Do not install any additional
washers .
• Connect the stopcocks (fig. A) to the hot
and cold or mixed water supply.
• Balance the pressure between the hot and
cold water (∆ P<1bar). Recommended
pressure: 1 - 5 bar. Maximum pressure: 8 bar.
Take care not to pinch the flexibles (fig. C).
• Wall-mounted models: once the base is
fixed to the wall, loosen the grub screw
(fig. B, F), mount the spout in the correct
axis of flow then re-tighten the grub screw
(fig. B, F).
ANTI-SCALDING SAFETY DUE TO
TEMPERATURE LIMITATION (on mixers)
The mixer is pre-set at the factory with the
temperature limiter engaged, to disengage:
• Loosen the grub screw (fig. A) using a
4mm Allen key and remove the mixing key
(fig. A).
• Pry upwards with a flat-headed screw driver
(fig. E) e.g. to remove the coloured
limiter (fig. E).
Note: For the UK and Ireland, in healthcare
and high risk applications, the temperature
limiter must be disengaged and a certied
thermostatic mixing valve used to provide a
safe hot water temperature.
ADJUSTING THE FLOW RATE
The flow rate is pre-set at the factory at 3 lpm
(at 3 bar). Adjust directly on the flow
straightener (with adjustable flow rate) using a
2.5mm Allen key:
- notch n°1 = 3 lpm (at 3 bar).
- notch n°2 = 4 lpm (at 3 bar).
- notch n°3 = 5 lpm (at 3 bar).
REMEMBER
• Our mixers/taps must be installed by
professional installers in accordance with
current regulations and recommendations
in your country, and the specications of the
fluid engineer.
• Sizing the pipes correctly will avoid problems
of flow rate, pressure loss and unwanted
noise (see calculation table in the brochure
and online at www.delabie.com).
• Protect the installation with filters, water-
hammer absorbers and pressure reducers to
reduce the frequency of maintenance
(recommended pressure: 1 to 5 bar).
• Install stopcocks close to the mixer to
facilitate maintenance.
• The pipework, stopcocks, bib taps and all
sanitary fittings should be checked at least
once a year, and more frequently if
necessary.
