The primary aspect is to keep away from the use of harsh chemicals. The second is not to store any chemicals or other stuff near the battery pack. The third is not to put the control box and battery box near any electronic products because EMC can influence the function of the sensor working.  It is preferable to arrange a few of the household goods stored underneath the sink to elsewhere to ensure that there is no disturbance. The reason is to prevent an explosion, which only occurs in the worst scenarios. It is likewise essential to dispose of the used battery with care and replace them properly to ensure a protective environment.

Infrared sensor for commercial touchless faucets

As the most important part, the work of the sensor is to forward the signals to the valve to turn on the faucet after detecting your hand. Its job is to inform the valve when to start or stop the flow based on the presence or absence of your hands. It has either infrared light or ultrasonic sensors. In most cases, infrared light sensors are often placed at the tip of the spout.

The infrared sensor integrated the circuit board which we also call PCBA, the IC OR MCU in the PCBA controls the whole program working. We use glue potting with a strong moistureproof function to seal and protect the circuit board.
