SPL Husa Sensor Tap - logo HUSA – MAINS POWER Installation & maintenance instructions.

General Information

  • Designed for indoor use only. Do not expose to elements of nature.
  • All plumbing and electrical connection must be made in accordance with AUS / NZ standards.

Warnings

  • Read all instructions before attempting to install this system. It is recommended a qualified & registered plumber completes the install.
  • Ensure pipe work is thoroughly flushed before installing the solenoid assembly. Solenoid components are susceptible to debris and require additional flushing compared to a standard plumbing fixture.
  • Consideration should be given to any regulations relating to an air gap, an air break or double check valve to protect against back flow.

Operating Instructions and Parts Manual

Please read carefully before attempting to assemble, install, operate or maintain the product described. Protect yourself and others by observing all safety information. Failure to comply with instructions could result in personal injury and/or property damage. Retain instructions for future reference.

Planning

  • Ensure an appropriate piping design (sizing etc). This will eliminate issues arising from flow, pressure and water hammering.
  • Where appropriate install necessary filters, water hammering arrestors and water pressure reducing valves (recommended pressure 1 to 6 bar). This will minimise future maintenance.
  • Install the angle valve to enable ease of future maintenance.

Tempered Water

  • An appropriate thermostatic mixing valve (TMV3) should be installed to ensure a safe regulated water temperature. These are available from SPL – SST THERMO VALVE

SPL Husa Sensor Tap - Power Supply Important
To be installed in accordance with all NZ electrical regulations. It must be carried out by a qualified professional.
Positioning of the mounting box should be 500mm from the floor and consider:

  1. Moisture ingress due to plumbing fault
  2. Ongoing maintenance and accessibility

The mounting box can be surface mounted or within the service or ceiling cavity.

Important

  • Pipework is required to be flushed thoroughly prior to faucet and solenoid installation. Foreign debris may reduce level of flow and in some cases damage the solenoid valve.
  • The senor of the faucet must not be obstructed.
  • Avoid positioning reflective objects or surfaces in front of the faucet sensor. This can cause false activation i.e. mirrors opposite faucet. With wall mounted faucets pay particular attention to the distance between the bottom of the basin and the faucet (minimum of 300mm) and the location and material of the basin waste (avoid mounting directly over the waste and/or choose non reflective options).
  • All plumbing and electrical installation must be carried out by a qualified person and in accordance with applicable codes and regulations.

Note: If you require to modify any of the factory settings please request the Sanela remote SLD03. SPL Husa Sensor Tap - mounting

Maintenance

  • It is recommended that the solenoid valve and all filters be inspected for foreign debris and cleaned annually (more frequently if necessary)
  • Clean faucet regularly using soapy water and a soft cloth or wet sponge
  • DO NOT clean faucet with any abrasive material or chlorine/acid based cleaning product. This may damage the filter of the infrared sensor and/or the finishing of the faucet.
