4 URINAL PLUMBING ARRANGEMENTS
There are 3 common methods for plumbing a urinal ushing
systems, these are detailed here.
1. Direct mains water supply using an approved
box rim type urinal. Water is delivered to the
solenoid valve which opens for a few seconds
when triggered by the sensor.
E621501 Jasper Morrison box rim urinal is
approved for use in UK. If in doubt, check with local water regulations.
2. A standard urinal can be ushed by an auto cistern which is topped-up by mains water supply as
shown.
When triggered, the solenoid valve releases mains water into the auto cistern. On lling to its ush level,
the water will automatically siphon & ush the urinal.
Normally the cistern ll rate is restricted with either a pet cock or the ow regulator provided (6L/min).
For example this system can be set up such that a ush occurs after 7 uses of the urinal (ow rate & run
time dependent, see section 7).
High velocity ll must be avoided, never exceed rate of 6L/min.
Turbulent & aerated water prevents the correct operation of the
auto siphons & may lead to cisterns overowing.
Use one dedicated auto cistern for each urinal.
