Application
Thermostat mixers are designed for hot water supply via
pressurised storage heaters and, utilised in this way, provide
the best temperature accuracy. With sufficient power output
(from 18 kW or 250 kcal/min), electric or gas instantaneous
heaters are also suitable.
Thermostats
cannot
be used in conjunction with
unpressurised storage heaters (displacement water heaters).
All thermostats are adjusted in the factory at a flow pressure
of 3 bar on both sides.
Should temperature deviations occur on account of special
installation conditions, the thermostat must be adapted to local
conditions (see Adjusting).

If static pressure exceeds 5 bar, a pressure reducing valve
must be fitted.
Installation
Flush pipes thoroughly.
Wall installation
1. Install S-unions and attach the sleeve together with the
escutcheon, see fold-out page I, Fig. [1].
2. Screw-mount the mixer and check connections for
watertightness
.
3. Push the sleeve with escutcheon onto the union nut.
4. Screw the escutcheon flush against the wall.
Pillar mounting
Fit pillar unions and screw-mount the mixer, see Fig. [2].
Refer to the dimensional drawing on fold-out page I.
The projection can be increased by 30mm with an extension,
(see Replacement Parts, fold-out page II, Prod. no.: 46 238).
Adjusting
For temperature adjustment,
see Figs. [3] and [4].
1. Open the shut-off valve and check the temperature of the
water with a thermometer, see Fig. [3].
2. Lever out cap (A), see Fig. [4].
3. Remove screw (B).
4. Detach temperature control handle (C).
5. Turn regulating nut (D) until the water temperature has
reached 38 °C.
6. Install temperature control handle (C) so that button (E)
points towards the front, see Fig. [3].
7. Screw in screw (B), see Fig. [4].
8. Refit cap (A).
Temperature limitation
The safety stop limits the temperature range to 38 °C.
The 38 °C limit can be overridden by pressing the button (E).
Shut-off handle (F) operation,
see Fig. [3].
Shut-off handle in central position
= closed
Turn shut-off handle anti-clockwise = discharge from spout
Turn shut-off handle clockwise
= discharge from shower
Prevention of frost damage
When the domestic water system is drained, thermostats must
be drained separately, since non-return valves are installed in
the hot and cold water connections. For this purpose, the
mixer must be removed from the wall.
Maintenance
Inspect and clean all parts, replace if necessary and lubricate
with special grease (Prod. no. 18 012).
Shut off hot and cold water supplies.
I.
Non-return valve (H) or (J),
see fold-out page I Fig. [5].
• Remove connection nipple (K) by turning clockwise (left-
hand thread) using a 12mm allen key.
Install in reverse order.
II.
Thermostatic compact cartridge (L),
see fold-out
page III, Fig. [6].
• Remove O-ring (M1).
• Loosen screw ring (M) using a 34mm tool.
• If necessary, lever out thermostatic compact cartridge (L) via
recess (L1).
• Remove screw ring (M).
Install in reverse order.
Observe the correct installation position of the
thermostatic compact cartridge (L) and the scale ring (N),
see details, Fig. [6].
Readjustment is necessary after every maintenance
operation on the thermostatic compact cartridge
(see Adjusting).
III. Aquadimmer (O),
see fold-out page III, Figs. [7] and [8].
Install in reverse order.
Observe correct installation position of individual
components,
see details.
IV.
Unscrew and clean
mousseur (13 927)
, see fold-out
page II.
Install in reverse order.
Replacement parts,
see fold-out page II (* = special
accessories).
