IMPORTANT PRE-INSTALLATION NOTES MAINS ELECTRICAL POWER SUPPLY Mains powered Sensor Operated Products must be connected to a (fused / switched) continuous permanent power supply. Connection to an interrupted power supply intended to stop electrical consumption in an unused facil- ity, may adversely affect this sensor product and is therefore not recommended. Each time the power supply is reinstated the product briefly enters reprogramming mode.
Water regulations The fittings covered by this installation and maintenance instruction should be installed in accordance with the water regulations published in 1999*, therefore Armitage Shanks would strongly recommend that these fittings are installed by a professional installer *A guide to the Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations 1999 and the Water Byelaws 2000, Scotland is published by WRAS (Water Regulations Advisory Scheme) Fern Close, Pen-y-Fan Industrial Estate, Oakdale, Newport, NP11 3EH.
URINAL PLUMBING ARRANGEMENTS There are 3 common methods for plumbing a urinal flushing systems, these are detailed here. ceiling mains solenoid water valve supply mains AUK2 air gap water supply solenoid valve auto cistern sensor box rim urinal sensor standard urinal Direct mains water supply using an approved box rim type urinal.

URINAL PLUMBING ARRANGEMENTS continued… mains air gap water storage supply tank ceiling solenoid valves sensors standard urinals A storage tank installed at least 2M above the solenoid valve can be used to flush a standard urinal as shown. The solenoid valve releases water directly from the tank each time the sensor is activated. The storage tank is topped-up by mains water supply which is normally controlled by a float valve, Storage tank system can supply water for flushing multiple urinals, as shown.
INSTALLATION GUIDE 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 sensors SENSOR POSITIONING: we recommend the sensor be mounted approximately as illustrated on the previous page.

INSTALLATION GUIDE continued… SURFACE MOUNT (SM) SENSORS Disassemble the sensor housing. Use the brass wall plate as a template to mark the hole positions on the mounting surface as shown. Drill one hole to suit the wall fixing being used. Drill a second hole Ø12 to Ø15mm just below the first hole for the cables to pass through the mounting surface.
INSTALLATION GUIDE continued… Water supply pipe Ø 15mm Plumbing Overview copper Once the sensor has been secured to the panel or mounting surface, consideration Flow regulator should be given to installing & positioning of tted the solenoid valve. Integral Flexible hoses are supplied for installing on isolating either side of the solenoid valve as shown.

INSTALLATION GUIDE continued… Fit the filter (mesh/strainer) into the top of the solenoid valve as shown, observing the flow direction arrow. Hand tighten the nut of the upper flexible hose onto the solenoid valve. Make sure the solenoid valve is orientated such that the electrical connectors are easily accessible. Tighten the nut (24mm A/F) with a spanner by holding the solenoid valve steady.

INSTALLATION GUIDE continued… Flexible hoses (general notes) Flexible hoses are supplied with these products. Hold the flexi hose steady whilst tightening the nut. Avoid sharp bends, twisting, kinking & stretching these hoses as this may result in damage. Take care not to use excessive force on the nut. On the nut side, a seal is integral &...
INSTALLATION GUIDE continued… Electrical connection Connection of this product to mains power supply should be undertaken by black a competent person and should conform to IEE Wiring Regulations Orientation & position of solenoids, and PSU (Power Supply Unit) case can differ from installa- tion to installation.

INSTALLATION GUIDE continued… Electrical connection continued… 28. Mains power cable (not supplied) should be flexible 3A rated (multi-strand) 2 core cable. 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.

INSTALLATION GUIDE continued… Electrical connection continued… A pair of self-adhesive Velcro-type pads are provided. Attach one to the side of the PSU case & the other to a suitable location on the rear of the mounting panel. Ensure the selected location does not stretch/stress the cables. Consid- eration should also be given to keeping the PSU case within easy reach/ access for maintenance staff.

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 400mm range & 4 seconds run time. Run time of 4 to 10 secs is considered satisfactory for most applications. Too short a run time will reduce the frequency at which an auto cistern flushes.
SENSOR RANGING & RUN TIME ADJUSTMENT continued… B. Remote sensor programming unit is a hand held unit which can be used to change sensor range & other functions if required. Detailed instructions for using this unit are provided with the unit. (This unit can be purchased separately, for spares code see section 11).
Maintenance continued… • Remove the 3 screws holding the coil. • Lift off the coil assembly. • Locate the diaphragm (inside the valve body). • Clean out the pilot hole(s) – use a thin gauge fuse wire (or similar). If diaphragm is damaged it should be replaced. •...
Maintenance continued… A brief summary of how to navigate the programming unit is as follows: Hand unit ON Navigate to Menu 4 PARAMETER SENSOR 2013 (Enter) MENU 4.4 URINAL (Enter) AUTO-RINSE FREQUENCY: OFF ARROW UP (To required Delay time) (Enter). Recommended: 6 or 12 hours. AUTO-RINSE DURATION: (15 sec default) ARROW UP or DOWN (To required Run Time).
