NOTES FOR COMMISSIONING AND IN-SERVICE TESTING
1. Measuring the Shower Outlet Water
Temperature
With the shower running, position the
showerhead horizontally and place a funnel
under the water flow. Make sure that the
funnel mouth collects all of the water emitted
from the showerhead. Take a reading using
a temperature probe in the collected water
flowing from the outlet of the funnel.
Typical dimensions of a suitable funnel are:
Opening diameter: 110 mm,
Throat diameter: 15 mm.
2. Measuring the Heated Water from
Shower Outlet
After resetting the shower to the default
setting (press the ‘START’ bar on the shower
cover) measure using the method described
in (1.) above.
3. Measurement of Heated Water from
the - Shower Outlet when Restricting
the - Mains Water Supply
Progressively restrict the inlet water flow to
the unit using the service valve (see page 6)
until the ‘Low’ LED comes on (on the cover)
and the shower shuts down with no water
flow from the showerhead. Open the service
valve slightly and restart the shower using
the Stop/Start button. Record the resulting
outlet water temperature using the method
described in (1.) above. If this exceeds 43°C
withdraw the shower from service and call
Customer Service on 0870 067 3333.
Note: The service valve should be returned
to the fully open position after this test.
4. Measurement of Supply Voltage at
Appliance Terminals
Switch off the electricity at the mains supply
and remove the circuit fuse. Remove the
shower cover, taking care to position it so
that it does not hang by the interconnecting
ribbon cable.
Replace the circuit fuse and switch on the
electrical mains supply. Take the AC voltage
reading across the Live and Neutral screws of
the mains terminal block.
Take care NOT to touch any other internal
components of the shower. Switch off the
electricity at the mains supply, remove the
circuit fuse and replace the cover using the
screws supplied.
Note: This test should only be performed by
a suitably qualified engineer.
5. When the Set Maximum Outlet Water
Temperature has Changed Significantly
If the set maximum outlet water temperature
has changed significantly from the previous
test results (greater than ±1°C), check:
a. That the outlet fittings (showerhead/shower
hose) are free from restrictions and limescale.
b. That the inlet filter of the shower is free from
debris (see page 24).
c. That in-line check valves or other back-flow
prevention devices are in good working
order.
d. Any isolating valves on the water main
supplying the unit are fully opened.
If, after making the above checks, an
acceptable outlet water temperature is not
achieved withdraw the shower from service
and contact Triton Customer Care on
0870 067 3333.
