Wall mount sensor FAUCET
Wall mount sensor faucet or also called wall mounted automatic faucet, touchless faucet wall mount, mainly used in public washrooms which is installed concealed inside the wall. The sensor faucet integrates the infrared sensor in the spout, solenoid valve inside the faucet body. When people getting close to the faucet, put the hand in the sensor detects area will activate the water flow, and the water will stop when you take your hand away.

Installation Diagram
Instructions for use:
1. Sensor/flow test
When the unit is powered on, water should flow immediately when you put your hands within range of the sensor. When you remove your hands out range the water should stop immediately.
The maximum duration of continuous flow is 1 minute.
2. Sensor range
The default factory set distance is 12~15 cm. When powered on for the first time, place your hands at the desired distance within 5 seconds after the power has been switched on and remove your hands after approx 2 seconds in order to change the factory setting.
To reset the setting, interrupt power for at least 30 seconds and follow the procedure as described to set the sensor range correctly.
3. Water filter
To prevent blockage please clean the water filter regularly, make sure you shut off the water mains, unscrew the water inlet hose, remove the strainer, clean with water and a soft brush. Then install the items in reverse order, turn on water mains and check for leakage.
Uses of wall mounted sensor faucet

Wall mount sensor faucets use infrared sensor technology that allows you to start the flow of water without touching the faucet. Instead, just placing your hand under the spout sensor, the sensor emits infrared beams and receives the reflection beams from the hand. Then it will give the solenoid valve a signal to open and the water will start flow; When you take your hand away, the sensor will indicate the solenoid valve to close, then the water flow will stop.
