Inta Intatherm IT1005CP Installation And Maintenance Instructions Manual page 9

Installation
4 The maximum flow rate of the tap will only be achieved when the supply conditions are
achieved as quoted within the Technical Specification, with a flow condition under 1 bar
differential pressure.
5 This thermostatic mixer tap has been designed for basin mounting. It is essential that access
to the tap is not be obstructed for commissioning, testing, or any future maintenance that
may be required.
6 The hot and cold water supplies must be connected to the tap strictly in accordance with
these instructions i.e. hot water supply to the hot port of the tap.
7 In a situation where one or both of the water supplies are excessive, it is possible to fit a
pressure reducing valve or a flow regulator to reduce the pressure(s) to within the limits as
quoted previously.
8 Any thermostatic basin tap must be fitted with a back flow prevention device, such as check
valves to prevent the cross contamination of supplies.
9 Independent filters/check valves and isolation valves must be fitted in conjunction with the
IT1005CP basin tap, as close as practically possible to the water supply inlets.
The IT1006CP has an integral filter and check valve in the compression connection on the
hot and cold supplies.
10 It is essential that the Intatherm thermostatic basin tap should not be installed in situations
where there is a possibility of the tap being deprived of water or where demands for water
are greater than the actual stored supplies.
11 To ensure that the performance levels of the Intatherm thermostatic basin tap is maintained
(in the event of cold water failure), the temperature of the hot water supply at the point of
entry to the valves must be a minimum of 10˚C above the commissioned mixed water
discharge temperature.
12 The Intatherm thermostatic basin tap must not be subject to any extreme temperature
variations either during the installation or under normal operating conditions.
Commissioning
IMPORTANT - The following instructions must be read and understood prior to commissioning
the Intatherm thermostatic basin tap. If under any circumstances there are aspects to the
installation / system which do not comply with the specification laid down, the tap MUST NOT be
put into operation until the system / installation complies with our specification. However if all
these conditions are met, proceed to set the temperature as follows;
1 Ensure that the system is thoroughly cleaned and free from any debris prior to the
commissioning the Intatherm thermostatic basin tap.
2 Commissioning the temperatures must be carried out using a suitably calibrated thermometer
preferably a digital thermometer.
