Application
Thermostat mixers are designed for hot water supplies from
pressurised storage heaters and offer the highest temperature
accuracy when used in this way. Given sufficient output
(min. 18 kW or 250 kcal per min), electric or gas-fired
instantaneous heaters are also suitable.
Thermostat mixers cannot be used in conjunction with low-
pressure storage heaters (displacement heaters).
All thermostat mixers are adjusted at the factory at a flow
pressure of 3 bar on both sides.
The built-in thermostat only shuts off the upper outlet. An
additional stop valve must be fitted if the lower outlet is used.
For an order number index to the various installation
components for the concealed mixer, see fold out page II
fig. [1].

Safety stop
Hot water temperature at supply connection min. 2 °C higher
than mixed water temperature.
Hot water connection - W - (-H-)

Minimum flow rate
At a flow pressure over 5 bar it is recommended that a
pressure reducing valve be fitted in the supply line.

New installations

- Prepare wall ready for mixer.
Drill holes for thermostat mixer and chase-out grooves for
pipelines.
- Observe the installation depth in accordance with the
instructions given on the mounting template, see also fold
out page II fig. [2].
x = Face of tiles
y = Front face of mounting template
z = Resting point for spirit level
1
- Align the mixer horizontally, vertically and parallel to the wall,
see fig. [3] (place a spirit level on the cams or face of the
mounting template).
- Install concealed thermostat mixer module in wall and
connect pipelines, see fig. [4].
The housing is provided with pre-drilled holes (B) to facilitate
mounting the fitting to the wall, see fig. [3].
- Do not solder the connections between the pipelines
and housing, otherwise the built-in non-return valves may
be damaged.
- Seal the open outlet with screw plug.
Note!
- The hot water supply must be connected on the left
(marked W (H) on housing) and the cold water supply on
the right (marked K (C) on housing), as viewed from the
operating position.
Open cold and hot water supplies.
Test the pipelines and concealed thermostat module
connections for leaks.
Flush pipelines thoroughly.
1. Remove screws (C) and mounting template (D), see
fig. [5].
2. Close the hot and cold water supplies.

plugs (H).
60 °C
8. Install filter (G) and non-return valve (F), see fig. [5].
38 °C
9. Install screw plug (E).
10. Reinstall mounting template (D).
left
Plaster and tile the wall, excluding the area occupied by the
right
mounting template. Seal any apertures in the wall so that they
5 l/min are watertight to spray water.
• Tiles laid in mortar should be pointed so that the joint is
tapered towards the outside.
• Seal prefabricated walls with a permanently plastic
compound.
Do not remove the fitting template before final installation.
