GENERAL DESCRIPTION:

handles, the bottom lever handle sets the desired
temperature and the top lever handle functions as an
on/off, volume control. The temperature is maintained by

cold. The volume is controlled by twin ceramic disc valve
cartridges. Ceratherm includes Hot Limit Safety Stop.

and outlets.

mutiple outlet installations.

Available with 1/2" or 3/4" NPT inlets

The valve has a high flow rate, ideal for

long life.

Wax Thermostatic Unit: Permits shuttle valve to move

between the hot and cold seat to maintain the pre-selected
constant water temperature.

Back to Back Capable: Hot and cold can be reversed.
Spring-Loaded Check Valves: When the hot and cold water

enters the fitting, both supplies pass through the spring-loaded
check valves to prevent cross flow of hot and cold water.

Integrated Stop Valves: Ensure easy cleaning and servicing.
Adjustable Hot Limit Safety Stop: Limits the amount of hot

water allowed to mix with cold. Reduces the risk of accidental
scalding. Maximum water temperature limit may be reduced to
104 or 109 degrees Fahrenheit.
