The valve is an electronically operated drop valve,
which replaces the traditional siphon and delivers
a precisely measured volume of water from the cistern
to sluice hopper or WC pan.
The valve and casing are both made from high impact ABS and the valve itself
has a 6 mm neoprene facing for an efficient, watertight fit and has a high resistance
to limescale. The infrared sensor activates when user comes within 50 mm of sensor.
More than one sensor can be fitted to give the facility of dual flushing. Can
also be supplied with Touch Pad Switch if required.
Fitting to existing sluice
& WC’s cisterns: Retrofitting to an existing
installation is simple, using
standard fittings.
Tamper Resistant: The cistern containing the Flushvalve
can be remotely located, long stem sensor available
for cavity wall
Benefits
Reduced water consumption, easy to use, hygienic, easy maintenance, flush valve
and fits existing and new cisterns.

Autoflush Flushvalve
Operation
Simply wave a hand over the sensor
to activate the electronic cistern valve.
Electronically operated, the Flushvalve delivers a precisely measured volume
of water upon activation. The timer can be adjusted to any setting between
1 and 9 seconds, which each second representing 1 litre of water. The Flushvalve
is activated when the user’s hand comes within 50 mm (touch pad sensors
can be fitted if required) and a 35 second delay mechanism prevents abuse by
the user.
An electro-magnetic solenoid coil is central to the operation of the Flushvalve.
Upon activation, an electro-magnetic field is created within the upper part
of the valve body. This draws up a metal pin, which instantly opens the valve
and releases, the water full bore through the flush pipe into the sluice hopper,
WC or urinal. At the end of the timed flushing cycle, the electrical supply
is cut off thereby deactivating the solenoid and returning the valve to the
closed position. Further escape of water is prevented by the unique conical
design of the valve seating and atmospheric pressure.
