Function Description

The Cersanit Aqua 40 Mech / System 40 Mech is a robust and versatile concealed toilet frame system. Its primary function is to provide a stable and hidden support structure for wall-hung toilets, integrating the cistern and all necessary plumbing within the wall. This design offers a minimalist aesthetic, saves space, and simplifies cleaning of the bathroom floor.

Usage Features

Concealed Installation: The frame and cistern are hidden within the wall, creating a sleek and modern bathroom appearance.
Dual Flush System: Offers two flush options (full and reduced) for efficient water usage, contributing to environmental sustainability and lower water bills. The flush volumes are adjustable to suit user preferences and local regulations.
Height Adjustment: The frame's height can be adjusted during installation (0-200 mm) to achieve the desired toilet pan height, ensuring ergonomic comfort for users of different statures.
Flexible Wall Mounting: The wall mounting brackets are designed for versatility, allowing for depth adjustment (146-198 mm) and 360° rotation. This feature simplifies installation on various wall types and ensures a secure fit.
Easy Drain Connection: The drain elbow can be adjusted to four different depths (152 mm, 168 mm, 185 mm, 202 mm) to perfectly align with the wall-hung toilet's waste outlet, preventing kinks or strain on the plumbing.
Mechanical Actuation: The system uses a reliable mechanical flush plate actuation, ensuring consistent performance and compatibility with a wide range of Cersanit flush plates.
Robust Construction: Made from durable materials, the frame is designed to support the weight of a wall-hung toilet and user, providing long-term stability and safety.
Pre-assembled Components: Many components, such as the cistern and some plumbing parts, come pre-assembled, reducing installation time and complexity.
Water Supply Connection: Features a 1/2" water supply connection, which is a standard size, making it easy to integrate with existing plumbing systems.
Sound Insulation: The concealed design inherently provides some sound insulation, reducing the noise of flushing compared to exposed cisterns.

Maintenance Features

Accessible Cistern Components: Despite being concealed, the internal components of the cistern (fill valve and flush valve) are designed to be accessible for maintenance or replacement through the flush plate opening. This is demonstrated by the removal and reinstallation steps for the flush plate frame and the internal mechanism.
Adjustable Flush Volume: The flush valve allows for easy adjustment of both full and reduced flush volumes (e.g., from 6L/3L to 4L/2L). This feature enables optimization of water consumption and can be adjusted if water pressure or toilet bowl design requires it.
Water Supply Isolation: The system includes an accessible shut-off valve for the water supply, allowing for easy isolation of water to the cistern for maintenance without affecting the rest of the bathroom's water supply.
Pre-flush Cleaning: Before connecting the fill valve to the cistern, the instructions recommend flushing the water supply line for at least 30 seconds. This helps to remove any debris or impurities from the pipes, preventing them from entering the cistern and potentially affecting the fill valve's operation or water quality.
Durable Materials: The use of high-quality materials for the frame and internal components ensures longevity and reduces the frequency of maintenance.
Clear Installation Guide: The detailed, step-by-step visual instructions simplify both initial installation and any subsequent adjustments or maintenance tasks, making it user-friendly for plumbers and DIY enthusiasts.
Component Replacement: Individual components like the fill valve or flush valve can be replaced if necessary, extending the lifespan of the entire system without needing to replace the entire frame.
