Usage
Effective low cost solution for light hand washing at a single basin. Compact design, energy efficient and easy to install. Buy with our compatible hot and cold tap as a set for convenience and confidence. Confirm that the flow rate and temperature performance is adequate for your application using the chart and tables provided.
Features and Benefits
- Supplies hot water to a single outlet for light hand washing only
- Bare wire heating system gives fast heat up time
- Heats the water instantly as it flows through the unit
- Energy efficient –no standing losses
- 3.0 kW power rating
- Easy to install, 13 amps connects to standard wiring
- Ideal bought as a set with our hot and cold tap or for IN30T use with a Vega infrared tap (page 60)
- Not suitable for use with thermostatic mixing valves or taps or to supply a single lever mixer tap
- Must be used with a spray head tap
- Supplied 1.6l/m flow restrictor must be fitted to the tap spout giving giving a temperature uplift of 27°C
- This will give 42°C in summer, incoming water temp 15°C and 37°C in winter, incoming water temp 10°C.
Thermostatic Model Only
- External electronic thermostatic control accurate to the nearest degree
- LED temperature display
- Energy saving – only uses the power required to deliver the chosen temperature
- Heating power automatically adjusted to compensate for temperature, flow rate and water pressure variations
- Temperature factory set at 38°C and can be adjusted by the user between 35°C and 50°C. In normal usage the maximum temperature is 37°C to 42°C.
- After power interruption the unit will recall the last usage outlet temperature but must be turned back on using the touch screen.
