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 isolation valve to enable ease of future maintenance.

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:
- Moisture ingress due to plumbing fault
- Ongoing maintenance and accessibility
The mounting box can be surface mounted or within the service or ceiling cavity.
Fix mounting box to wall| Pass mains (230V) power supply into mounting box
via grommet and terminate accordingly
Reinstall cover of mouting box and ensure sealed.
Tighten grommet to ensure snug around cables
Note: Power supply should be secured via current breaker before the
external supply (not included)
Installation
Ensure mains power supply is off. Align piping arrangement with water inlet/outlet.| Make certain a power supply connection has been allowed for and the correct transformer has been supplied.
Insert mounting box in place. Ensure pipework has been flushed thoroughly.| Pass power supply from transformer into mounting box via grommet. Connect pipework securely.
Screw temporary cover in place (if applicable).| Reinstate mounting surface (if applicable).
Remove temporary cover (if applicable).| Using the allen key, remove 2 x security screws from the bottom of stainless steel cover and seperate cover from plate.
Fix plate to mounting box (4 x screws).| Connect electronics to solenoid valve.
Connect power supply to electronics, via wago connectors. Note polarity.| Refit stainless steel cover by carefully inserting top mounting points first, followed by tightening of 2 x security screws at the bottom – use allen key.
| Turn 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 on, avoid coming within active range for 10 seconds while sensor
calibrates.
Important
Pipework is required to be flushed thoroughly prior to installation.
Foreign debris may reduce level of flow and in some cases damage the solenoid
valve.
- The sensor of the unit must not be obstructed.
- Avoid positioning reflective objects or surfaces in front of the sensor. This can cause false activation.
- 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.
Maintenance
- It is recommended that the solenoid valve and all filters be inspected for foreign debris and cleaned annually (more frequently if necessary)
- Clean cover regularly using soapy water and a soft cloth or wet sponge
- DO NOT clean cover with any abrasive material or chlorine/acid based cleaning product. This may damage the filter of the infrared sensor and/or the finish.
