2. TOOLS REQUIRED (NOT SUPPLIED)
1. INTRODUCTION
This booklet contains all the necessary fitting and
operating instructions for your MX Thermostatic bar
mixer shower.
Please read these instructions carefully. Read
through the whole of this book before beginning your
installation.
The shower installation MUST be carried out by a
suitably competent person in the sequence of this
instruction book, after reading the instructions.
Care taken during the installation will provide a long
and trouble free life from your shower. For the best
performance within the specified running pressure
range a minimum flow of 5 litres per minute should
be available on both inlets.
This mixer valve is designed to deliver higher water
flow rates on Low pressure systems with a minimum
running pressure of 0.1 bar. The mixer valve is also
suitable for thermal storage, unvented systems,
pumped gravity systems and high pressure systems
up to 5 bar running pressure. The mixer valve must
not be subjected to water temperatures above 80˚C.
IMPORTANT: Before installing with a gas
instantaneous water heater, make sure it is capable
of delivering hot water at a minimum switch-on flow
rate of 3 litres per minute.
At flow rates between 3 and 8 litres per minute,
the appliance must be capable of raising the water
temperature to a minimum of 52˚C.
The water temperature at the inlet to the mixer valve
must remain relatively constant when flow rate
adjustments are made (refer to the water heater
operating manual to confirm compatibility with this
mixer valve).
