INSTALLATION

PRIOR TO INSTALLATION

Note: Prior to installing the Selectronic™Flush Valve the following items must be installed.

1. Toilet
2. Drain line
3. Water supply line

IMPORTANT:

• All plumbing and electrical wiring should be installed in accordance with applicable codes and regulations.
• The use of water hammer arrestors is strongly recommended for commercial applications. All piping behind the walls should be properly secured and fastened.
• Water supply lines must be sized to provide an adequate volume of water for each fixture.
• Flush all water lines prior to operation. Dirt and debris can cause flush valve to run continuously.
• With the exception of Stop Valve Inlet, DO NOT use pipe sealant or plumbing grease on any valve component or coupling!
• Protect the chrome or special finish on the Flushometer. DO NOT USE toothed tools on finished surfaces to install or service these valves. Also see “Care and Cleaning” section of this manual.
• This product contains mechanical and/or electrical components that are subject to normal wear. These components should be checked on a regular basis and replaced as needed to maintain the valve’s performance.

FLUSH VALVE INSTALLATION
INSTALL SWEAT ADAPTER

CAUTION Turn water supplies off before beginning
Note: Install Optional Sweat Adapter (Supplied) for copper pipe supply line.

1. Measure the distance (A) from the finished wall to the center of the inlet spud on the fixture.
2. Cut the supply pipe 1-1/4″ (A-B=C) shorter than the measurement taken in Step 1. File any rough edges off the end of the supply pipe.
3. Clean the end of the supply pipe. Push the threaded Adapter until it is seated against the internal stop.Sweat the Adapter to the pipe.

INSTALL COVER TUBE, WALL ESCUTCHEON and STOP VALVE

1. Measure from finished wall to first thread of Adapter or threaded supply pipe (dimension “X”). Cut COVER TUBE (1) to length (X). Apply Teflon Tape to the threaded end of the Adapter or supply pipe.
2. Push WALL ESCUTCHEON (2) onto the COVER TUBE (1). Slide both onto the SUPPLY PIPE (3).
3. Push the COVER TUBE (1) in to expose the threads of the supply pipe. With a wrench, thread the STOP VALVE (4) onto the SUPPLY PIPE (3). Align and tighten.
4. Pull COVER TUBE (1) against STOP VALVE (4) and push WALL ESCUTCHEON (2) against finished wall.

INSTALL VACUUM BREAKER TUBE

1. Place the SPUD FLANGE (1) over the spud on the Fixture.
2. Place FRICTION WASHER (3) and SEAL WASHER (4) inside SPUD COUPLING NUT (2) and thread onto Spud. Do not tighten fully.
3. Insert the VACUUM BREAKER TUBE (5) into the SPUD COUPLING NUT (2) and push it down.

Note: If cutting VACUUM BREAKER TUBE (5) to size, note that Critical Line (C/L) on Vacuum Breaker must typically be 6″ (152mm) above fixture. Consult Code for details.

FLUSH OUT SUPPLY LINES

1. Remove STOP VALVE COVER (1) from STOP VALVE (2).
2. Open STOP VALVE (2) with a flat blade screwdriver.
3. Turn on water supply to flush line of any debris or sediment.
4. Close STOP VALVE (2) and replace STOP VALVE COVER (1).

LEFT OR RIGHT HAND INSTALLATION
The unit is shipped with the adjustable tailpiece on the right side. If needed, the orientation can be modified by following the steps below.

1. Loosen SET SCREW (1) with 2.5mm Hex Wrench (4) in back of FLUSH VALVE COVER (2).
2. Rotate FLUSH VALVE COVER (2) to the right and lift off.
3. Rotate FLUSH VALVE BODY (3) 180˚
4. Replace COVER (2) and rotate until key engages. Tighten SET SCREW (1)

INSTALL FLUSH VALVE

1. Insert ADJUSTABLE TAILPIECE (1) into the STOP VALVE (2). Lubricate the O-RING (3) with water if necessary. Lightly tighten COUPLING NUT (4). Fig. 8. Important: Do not use lubricants (other than water) or any type of thread sealing paste or tape.
2. Align the FLUSH VALVE BODY (5) directly above the VACUUM BREAKER TUBE (7) and VACUUM BREAKER COUPLING NUT (6). Fig. 8a.
   • Note: There is a +13mm, -6mm (+1/2, -1/4) tolerance for the 121mm (4-3/4) dimension.
3. Pull the VACUUM BREAKER TUBE (7) up to meet the threaded FLUSH VALVE BODY (5), hand tighten the VACUUM BREAKER COUPLING NUT (6). Align all components of the flush valve assembly. Fig. 8a.
4. Lightly tighten the COUPLING NUT (4) connection first, then the VACUUM BREAKER COUPLING NUT (6) and finally the SPUD COUPLING NUT (8). Once alligned correctly, use a wrench to tighten couplings to make water tight connections. Fig. 8a.

ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
INSTALL POWER SUPPLY AND MAKE ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS (remote and front installation)

CAUTION Ensure that the line power to bathroom is OFF prior to making connections.

1. Connect Black and White power connections to AC TRANSFORMER (1). Mount AC TRANSFORMER (1) onto ELECTRICAL BOX (2).
2. Connect the 10′ EXTENSION CABLE (sold seperately) to the CONVERTER (7).

INSTALL ELECTRICAL BOX (BY OTHERS)

FRONT INSTALLATION (with optional cover plate)
Note: The ELECTRICAL BOX (1) can be installed in any location along the marked arc. Cut a 105 x 105 mm (4-1/8″ x 4-1/8″) opening in finished wall for ELECTRICAL BOX (1) (by others) and follow installation template provided in box. See Fig. 10.

REMOTE INSTALLATION FOR POWER SUPPLY
Mount a 4″ x 4″ x 2-1/2″ (102 x 102 x 64 mm), ELECTRICAL BOX (1) (by others) within 10′ from the installed flush valve. See Fig. 10.

INSTALL CONDUIT, ESCUTCHEON AND SENSOR CABLE

1. Drill a 2″ diameter hole (shown in Fig. 10) in the finished wall for the CONDUIT (2).
2. Pull 27″ EXTENSION CABLE (3 ) through CONDUIT (2).
3. Slide ESCUTCHEON (1) onto CONDUIT (2).
4. For front installation, connect the 10′ EXTENSION CABLE (4) to the 27″ EXTENSION CABLE (3). Secure this connection with the CONNECTOR LOCKING DEVICE (5) and place inside electrical box.
5. Slide ESCUTCHEON (1) tight against finished wall and secure by tightening SET SCREW (6).

MULTI-AC VERSION (DAISY-CHAIN)

CAUTION Ensure that the line power to bathroom is OFF prior to making connections.

MAINTENANCE

ADJUST STOP VALVE

IMPORTANT: To avoid overflowing, the STOP VALVE (3) must never be opened to the point where the flow from the valve exceeds the draining ability of the fixture.

1. After installation is complete, peel off the PROTECTIVE FILM (1) from the sensor. Standing to one side, block the sensor with your hand for 10 seconds. Remove your hand and listen for audible “click” from within the valve.
2. Remove STOP VALVE COVER (2) from STOP VALVE (3). Turn on water supply 1/4 turn to 1/2 turn (CCW) and test for leaks.
   • Note: Unit may flush for approximately 5 to 10 sec. when water is first turned on. If flow persists, turn water off and repeat step #1 above.
3. Actuate the FLUSH VALVE:
   • A) Cover sensor with hand for 10 seconds.
   • NOTE: Stand outside of sensor detection area.
   • B) Remove hand from sensor detection area; unit will flush in approximately 3 seconds.
4. Adjust STOP VALVE (3) after each flush until the stated flush volume is achieved, no splashing occurs and the fixture is properly cleansed.
5. When adjustment is complete, replace STOP VALVE COVER (2) and tighten to ensure vandal-resistance.

SET DETECTION RANGE (if Required)
Note: The detection distance is preset and ideal for most installations. Should an adjustment be required, follow the steps below.

1. To remove the COVER PLATE (1), insert WIRE KEY (2) (supplied) into the two holes located at the bottom of the COVER PLATE (1). Push the WIRE KEY (2) up until it releases the bottom clips. Pull the bottom edge away and lift the COVER PLATE (1) off. Fig. 13.
2. Remove the connections from the CONNECTOR LOCKING DEVICE (5). Disconnect the 27″ EXTENSION CABLE (3) from the 10′ EXTENSION CABLE (4), and reconnect.
   • Note: You have 5 seconds to begin entering the program code after power connection is made.
3. While the SENSOR CONTROL LED (1) is blinking slowly, place your hand 1 to 2 in. (30-50 mm.) in front of the sensor. Fig. 14.
4. When the LED (1) stops blinking and stays “ON”, move your hand to the desired position from sensor and hold in place until the LED (1) begins to blink again.
   • Note: Detection Zone is 400 – 800 mm (15-3/4″x 31-1/2″). (Factory Setting: 400 mm (15-3/4″)
5. Once the SENSOR CONTROL LED (1) begins to blink again, remove your hand from the detection zone. When the flashing stops, the detection distance is set.
6. Actuate the FLUSH VALVE:
   • A) Cover sensor with hand for 10 seconds.
   • NOTE: Stand outside of sensor detection area.
   • B) Remove hand from detection area; unit will flush in approximately 3 seconds.
