Technical Specification
Inlet Connections: All 1/2" BSP
Operating Pressure: 150kPa - 500kPa
For optimum performance hot and cold water pressures should be equal.
AS/NZS 3500 stipulates a 500kPa maximum operating pressure at any outlet
within a building. Where normal pressure exceeds 500kPa, a pressure limiting
valve must be installed.
The basin mixer is rated at 7.5l/m. If limited water flow is experienced, locate
stream shaper flow restricting device and filter washers and clean away
foreign material as required.
Operating Temperature: Recommended hot water supply 50°C, maximum 70°C. AS/NZS 3500 requires all
hot water supplies to any sanitary fitting to be tempered to 50°C.
Ceramic cartridges: Ceramic cartridge can be damaged due to the presence of the following within the
water supply:
Copper tube pieces
Plastic pieces
Sand, dirt or stones
Thread tape
Other objects not normally present in the potable water supplies
Piping Requirements for Mixers
Avoid restrictive piping, fitting or sharp angled bends when plumbing the mixer
Do not hydrostatic test* the installation with this mixer installed. Damage to the ceramic cartridge may occur.
Hydrostatic testing refers to placing the system under pressure, above the recommended operating pressure, to
determine water tightness and to uncover leaks or weak joints within the system.
