Step 1 : Safety first Step 2 : Parts
These instructions relate to the use of the Wall Mounted Tap
Sensor only, any external or ‘add-on’ parts will be supplied with
separate instructions.
Appropriate personal protective equipment must be worn when
installing, calibrating and commissioning this product.
It is recommended that the electrical part of the installation be
carried out by a qualified electrician in accordance with the latest
electrical regulations. It is also recommended that any plumbing
is carried out by a qualified plumber.
This is a sophisticated electronic device which must be installed
correctly to perform correctly.
If the appliance is used by persons (including children) with
reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of
experience and knowledge, they must be given adequate
supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a
person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised
to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
Your kit will comprise the following parts*:
IMPORTANT: Please read these instructions carefully
and follow each stage in order! *Not to scale

Step 3 : Multiple Setup Installation
Step 3 : Typical Installation
Caution! For mains powered setups you must use the DVS
AT00-029 power supply unit. Do not attempt to use any
other device or power supply system.
Ensure the battery box or power supply is left disconnected at
this stage.
A maximum of three taps should be run from a single PSU.
Note for Multiple Installation kits:
2 Station Kits contain one AT00-036.
3 Station Kits contain two AT00-036’s and one AT00-033
extension.
The detectable range of the sensor will be default to approx
60mm, however, the range is fully adjustable via the Handheld
Programmer (available separately).
The minimum recommended distance from the underside of
the spout to the centre of the sensor is approximately 60mm.
This may vary if there is excessive reflection which can be
caused by bright surfaces such as chromed wastes and / or
bright lights mounted directly above the basin.
Step 4 : Preperation
Page 3
Step 5 : Installation
You must read these instructions thoroughly before attempting to
install this tap. First check the solenoid valve supplied is suitable
for the sites water pressure and conditions.
The standard valve requires 1-10 BAR water pressure and 5-55ºc
water temperature. If your water pressure is low (0.5 bar or less)
low pressure valves should be obtained from your supplier. See
Section 8: General Cleaning.
Pre-Fitting
First turn off the water supply. If possible select an upright
position for the solenoid valve. Check correct water flow
direction on installation of the solenoid valve. The fitting of an
isolator and Y-strainer (AC03-019) prior to the solenoid valve is
highly recommended (not supplied).
All infra-red taps can be affected by highly reflective surfaces.
Avoid mounting too close to reflective surfaces or direct sunlight.
Cut the pipework with a plumbers pipe cutter, remove sharp
edges and burrs. The diaphragm in the solenoid valve will be
damaged by oil, grease and debris. The valve should be used on
oil free pipe work only.
To prevent long term contamination the pipework must be
thoroughly purged prior to fitting the solenoid valve.
Fit the isolator, Y-strainer and solenoid valve and ensure pipes
are fully engaged in joints. Take care that the valve is fitted with
the correct direction of flow as indicated on the valve. Be careful
not to over tighten any joints.
For mixed water output, a TMV mixing valve is needed to safely
control the hot water temperature. See Fig.1 ‘Standard Setup’ for
typical TMV installation.
Fit the automatic tap to the required position. Secure the tap
with the nut and washers provided and connect pipework from
the solenoid valve and turn on the water supply, checking for
leaks.
IMPORTANT : Before installing the tap itself, please be
aware that wherever possible you must use the anti-rotation
pins supplied for the tap base. Non-use of the anti-rotation
pins in suitable areas can result in void of warranty.
IMPORTANT: Plumbing compound should not be used to
seal the pipework as oils leaching from the compound will
prevent the solenoid valve from functioning correctly.
Caution! Mount the battery box or power supply with care, in
a dry location, away from extremes in temperature and not
exposed to dirt, dust or damp.
Ensure the battery box or power supply is left disconnected
at this stage.
Electrical cable connection for Power Supply Unit (PSU)
It is recommended that the electrical part of the installation be
carried out by a qualified electrician in accordance with the latest
electrical regulations.
A 1m length of 0.5mm 2 core flex is supplied with the PSU - this
must not be extended.
Each PSU should be connected separately via a 3 amp fused
spur. The PSU must be permanently connected to the supply.
A suitable means of disconnection should be provided, in
accordance with local electrical regulations. If the mains lead
becomes damaged, the product should not be used. Contact
DVS for replacement parts.
Final Stage
Ensure all cable sockets and plug connections are clean and dry,
then connect the tap to the split connector and solenoid valve
firmly, ensuring all connections are secured tightly.
Step 6 : Plug & Socket Connections
NOTE: Incorrect fuses may void warranty.
Connect the battery pack or power supply unit to the
remaining split connector socket.
Once the tap is powered up, allow 30 seconds for the sensor
to calibrate. Attempting to operate the tap within this period
may cause the sensor to false trigger. If false triggering occurs,
disconnect power for 1 minute, then reconnect and allow the
sensor to recalibrate.
Plug and Socket Connections
Optional extension cables (1 and 2 metre) are all available from
the manufacturer to extend the low voltage output of the PSU
to the vicinity of the taps. See Section 8: General Cleaning.

*Not supplied. Can be ordered separately from DVS.
**Not supplied. Required for warm water output and to comply to current water byelaws. Can be ordered separately from DVS.
Pressure Notes: All automatic taps come standard with a 12.7mm solenoid valve which requires 1 BAR to operate. If the water pressure is less
than 1 BAR, low pressure valves should be fitted - To contact DVS technical support please refer to page 4.
