T100e thermostatic care & care plus

The installation must be in accordance with
Water Regulations/Bylaws.
To guarantee activating the heating elements,
the shower must be connected to a mains water
supply with a minimum running pressure of
100kPa (1.0 bar) at a minimum flow rate of nine
litres per minute with a maximum static pressure
of 1 000kPa (10 bar).
Note: If the stated flow rates are not available,
it may not be possible to achieve optimum
performance from the unit throughout the year.
Under site conditions where the power supply is
below 220 volts and the mains water pressure is
above 5 bar, it is recommended to fit a pressure
reducing valve set at 3.5 bar.
Fig.5 shows a typical system layout.
DO NOT use jointing compounds on any pipe
fittings for the installation.
During periods of high ambient temperatures it
may be necessary to select a low power setting
to achieve your preferred shower temperature.
The water supply can be taken from a cold water
storage cistern provided there is a minimum
head of ten metres above the showerhead. It
must be an independent supply to the shower
only.
If it is intended to operate the shower at
pressures above the maximum or below the
minimum stated, contact Customer Service.
