Specifications

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 minimize future maintenance.
• Install the angel 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

Components

Standard Functions

External Power Supply Installation

Important

• To be installed by 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.

1. Ensure the mains power supply is off
2. Mark mounting point(s) on the surface.
3. Drill and insert appropriate wall anchors if required
4. Remove the cover from the mounting box
5. Fix the mounting box to the wall
6. Pass mains (230V) power supply into the mounting box via grommet and terminate accordingly
7. Reinstall the cover of the mounting box and ensure sealed. Tighten the grommet to ensure snug around the cables Note: The power supply should be secured via the current breaker before the external supply (not included)

Faucet Installation

• Install 1/2” angel valve

• Flush lines thoroughly

• Fit mounting screw, o-ring, and rubber gasket

• Pass mounting screw, hose, and electrical connections through the vanity.

• Fit mounting plate and hex nuts
  

• Fit filter into angel valve

• Note the arrow on the solenoid valve

• Fit connection hose and solenoid. Note 8

• Connect the faucet to the solenoid valve

• Connect external power (24V outlet) supply to Wago connectors on the faucet. (Note polarity: brown to brown, white to white)

• Turn the angel valve on and check all connections

• Do not come within the active range

• Turn the power supply on
  It is necessary, for the proper function, to keep the unit under constant voltage (don´t connect the power supply unit behind the switch into the light circuit)

• Once power is turned on, the faucet will automatically adjust the sensing range during the first 10 seconds.
  The LED on the sensor will continually flash and do not come in active range during this time.

Important

• Pipework is required to be flushed thoroughly before faucet and solenoid installation. Foreign debris may reduce the 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 nonreflective options).
• All plumbing and electrical installation must be carried out by a qualified person and under applicable codes and regulations.

Note : If you require to modify any of the factory settings please request the Sanela remote SLD03.

Maintenance

• It is recommended that the solenoid valve and all filters be inspected for foreign debris and cleaned annually (more frequently if necessary)
• Clean the faucet regularly using soapy water and a soft cloth or wet sponge
• DO NOT clean the 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.
