38iSafety and Important InformationHansgrohe products are safe provided they are installed, used and maintained inaccordance with these instructions and recommendations.Please read these instructions thoroughly and retain for future use.The plumbing installation of this thermostat mixing valve must comply with therequirements of UK.Water Regulations/Bylaws (Scotland), Building Regulations or any other regulationsspecified by the local Water Authority and supplier.The installation of thermostatic mixing valves must comply with the requirements ofthe Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations 1999.We strongly recommend that you use a plumber registered with or a member of anAssociation:Chartered Institute of Plumbing and Heating Engineering (CIPHE)Water Industry Approved Plumber Scheme (WIAPS)Dispose of plastic bags carefully.Keep children well away from the work area.Check for hidden pipes and cables in the wall before drilling holes.The unit must be mounted on a finished waterproofed wall surface (usually tiles).If you are using power tools (e.g. to drill holes) wear safety glasses and alwaysdisconnect tools from the power supply after use.Do not operate the shower unit if the hand shower or spray hose has been dam-aged or is blocked.Do not block the flow of water from the hand shower, by placing it on your hand orany other part of your body or foreign object.The thermostatic unit should be serviced annually by a qualified person to ensuremaximum safety during use.The thermostatic mixing valve will be installed in such a position that maintenanceof the TMV and its valves and the commissioning and testing of the TMV can beundertaken.The mixer is fitted with check valves (page 37 pos. 96737000 and 93136000).There are filters on the thermostatic element too (page 37 pos. 96922000 and98282000).The fitting of isolation valves is required (preferred location page 39 InstallationRequirements).Technical Hotline (for UK only)Tel: 01372465655Email: Technical@hansgrohe.co.uk(Diese Servicehotline ist nur für das Vereinigte Königreich Großbritannien, nichtz. B. für Deutschland)Technical DataThis thermostatic valve will suit supplies of:HIGH PRESSURE (HP-S / HP-T)Type 3 High Pressure shower HP-S onlyType 2 High Pressure shower or tub as appropriate HP-S and or HP-TOperating pressure: max. 10 barRecommended operating pressure: 1 - 5 barTest pressure: 16 barHot water temperature: max. 60°CRecommended hot water temp.: 55 - 60°CRate of flow from bath spout: 20 l/min. @ 3 barRate of flow from shower outlet: 18 l/min. @ 3 barMaximum outlet temperature: 43°C +/-*Safety check: 40°CHot water connection: Left handCold water connection: Right handMixed water temperatureApplication Mixed water temperature(at point of discharge).Shower 41°C max.Washbasin 41°C max.Bath (44°C fill) 44°C max.Minimum difference between hotwater and mixed water temperature: 6 KHot and cold supply pressure should be balanced* For preset outlet temperature adjustment – See page 34.NB. If a water supply is fed by gravity then the supply pressure should be verifiedto ensure the conditions of use are appropriate for the valve.Recommended outlet temperaturesThe TMV scheme recommends the following set maximum mixed water outlet tem-peratures for use in all premises:44°C for bath fill but see notes below;41°C for showers;41°C for washbasins.The maximum mixed water temperature can be 2°C above the recommendedmaximum set outlet temperatures.Note: 46°C is the maximum mixed water temperature from the bath tap. The maxi-mum temperature takes account of the allowable temperature tolerances inherent inthermostatic mixing valves and temperature losses in metal baths.It is not a safe bathing temperature for adults or children.The British Burns Association recommends 37 to 37.5°C as a comfortable bathingtemperature for children. In premises covered by the Care Standards Act 2000, themaximum mixed water outlet temperature is 43°C.Installation RequirementsThis thermostatic mixer valve must be installed in compliance with current WaterRegulations. If you have any doubts about the Water Regulation requirements con-tact your local water services provider or use the services of a professional plumber.This mixer valve is suitable for use with the following water supply systems:Gas Combination Boiler (multi-point) 1.0 - 10 bar*Unvented System (pressure balanced) 1.0 - 10 barPumped System 1.0 - 10 barIMPORTANT: If you install this mixer with a gravity fed system, there must be aminimum head (vertical distance) from the underside of tlie cold water storage tankto the showerhead position of at least 5 metre.Before connecting the mixer, water should be flushed through the system to removeall debris that might otherwise damage the valve.* If pressure is in excess of 3.5 bar, a pressure-reducing valve should be fitted.Supply Conditions TMV Type 2Operating pressure range High pressureMaximum static pressure - bar 10Flow pressure, hot and cold - bar 0.5 to 5Hot supply temperature - °C 55 to 65Cold supply temperature - °C 5 to 25Supply Conditions TMV Type 3Operating pressure range High pressureMaximum static pressure - bar 10Flow pressure, hot and cold - bar 1 to 5Hot supply temperature - °C 55 to 65Cold supply temperature - °C 5 to 20Valves operating outside these conditions cannot be guaranteed to operate as Type2 or Type 3 valves.Commissioning and in-service testsCommissioningPurposeSince the installed supply conditions are likely to be different from those appliedin the laboratory tests it is appropriate, at commissioning, to carry out some simplechecks and tests on each mixing valve to provide a performance reference point forfuture in-service tests.Procedure1. Check that:a) the designation of the thermostatic mixing valve matches the intended ap-plicationb) the supply pressures are within the range of operating pressures for thedesignation of the valvec) the supply temperatures are within the range permitted for the valve and byguidance information on the prevention of legionella etc.2. Adjust the temperature of the mixed water in accordance with the manufac-turer’s instructions (page 34) and the requirement of the application and thencarry out the following sequence:a) record the temperature of the hot and cold water suppliesb) record the temperature of the mixed water at the largest draw-off flow rateOn the following pages 38 - 39 youcan find important information onlyfor the installation in UK
