    INSTALLATION GUIDE SENSOR POSITIONING: An example of a typical sensor operated shower installation is shown here. IMPORTANT: We recommend the sen- sor be positioned to one side of the shower outlet & within easy reach of the user. AVOID positioning the sensor directly beneath the shower outlet.
  • Page 7: Mounting The Sensors

    INSTALLATION GUIDE continued… Before connection, flush water through pipe-work to remove all debris etc. to prevent damage to the valve mechanism. THEN ENSURE WATER SUPPLIES HAVE BEEN ISOLATED. Mounting the sensors SENSOR POSITIONING: we recommend the sensor be mounted approximately as illustrated in figure 5a.

Prepare the cable for connection into the PCB by carefully stripping back the outer sheath by about 100mm. Strip the wire ends back by about 5mm. PCB connection: the appropriate wires of the mains cable should connected to the appropriate termi- nal on the block.

  • Page 17: Sensor Ranging & Run Time Adjustment

    SENSOR RANGING & RUN TIME ADJUSTMENT (SENSOR SHOULD NOT BE LOCATED DIRECTLY OPPOSITE A WALL MIRROR.) The sensing range & run time can both be adjusted. Default factory settings are 100mm range & 30 seconds run time. Run time of 30 is considered satisfactory for most applications. Too short a run time will increase the frequency of the user’s interactions with sensor.

    Maintenance continued… Hygiene flush (Automatic) This hygiene flush is enabled on the urinal products and can be adjusted by the installer or maintenance staff using the optional remote programming unit (for part number see sect.11). The hygiene flush is used to combat periods of stagnation due to low usage of the product. The function activates the flush (or discharge to auto cistern) automatically if it hasn’t been used for a set time period. This function ensures regular movement of water combating bio film growth and bacteria colonisation. The programming unit should be held pointing towards the sen- sor at distance of approx. 100mm. Once enabled, this function will automatically turn the water on for a duration of 1 to 240 seconds if the product has not been used for a period of 6, 12, 24, 48, or 72 hours.

    Isolating valve Isolation valve (supplied with this product) MUST be fitted to permit future maintenance of the product. A strainer (filter) is built into this valve. Isolation valve should be installed in an easily accessible location. strainer cap strainer screen isolating valve direction of flow When the isolator screw slot is parallel to the valve body, the valve is open & permits water to flow. To close the valve, rotate the isolator screw 90°. The filter can be checked & cleaned by unscrewing the cap using a 22mm A/F spanner. Expect some water to escape. The isolating valve can be closed to permit servicing of the solenoid valve, or to remove the product completely.
