The Triton Xerophyte Controller Unit can be connected to the Triton Xerophyte Mixer Unit in two
ways; a) 10-metre data cable or, b) wireless using AA-sized ALKALINE batteries.
Data cable installation (Wired Connectivity Only)
Triton recommend wired installation, as wireless transmissions MAYBE BLOCKED from the Triton
Xerophyte Controller Unit and thus prevent correct operation of the shower.
The Triton Xerophyte Controller Unit has been designed to allow for installation within a shower
cubicle or above a bath (i.e. splash-proof). The Triton Xerophyte Controller Unit MUST be located
in a convenient place inside the enclosure whereby the user can start and stop the shower
immediately, and also have easy access before entering the shower to activate the war-up
procedure.
When using wired connectivity, the distance between the Triton Xerophyte Mixer Unit and
Controller Unit MUST BE within the range of the 10-metre data cable.
Data cable installation (Wired Connectivity Only)
When connecting the Triton Xerophyte Controller Unit to the Triton Xerophyte Mixer Unit using
the data cable, the first operation is to connect the data cable (ferrite end, see Fig 13) to the triton
Xerophyte Mixer Unit. On the ends of both the data cable and Mixer, the data cable connector are
screw connectors, which provide a watertight seal. To ensure that the connectors are correctly
assembled and sealed, ALIGN the two arrows on both connectors so that they point towards one
another, and follow the 3 steps in Fig 13.
A 15mm diameter hole needs to be made within
the showering area to allow for the data cable
connection (Fig 14).
Make sure there is enough slack cable at the Triton
Xerophyte Controller Unit for the Unit to be
removed should the need arise for future
maintenance. Approximately 150mm protruding
length should be sufficient (Fig 15).
Under NO circumstances should the data cable be
extended or shortened. The data cable MUST be
connected with the ferrite end attached to the
Triton Xerophyte Mixer Unit. The incorrect
attachment will impair the performance of the
shower and invalidate the guarantee.
