PROTRONIC – Infrared Sensor Technology

FITTINGS FOR TOUCH-FREE ENVIRONMENTS

Smart Hygiene Solutions.

Intelligent electronics for the convenience of the user

Technical perfection in modern wash rooms

The new PROTRONIC infrared control
system sets new standards for safety
as well as water and energy saving in
sanitary rooms. The core of the system
is an infrared sensor that is mounted
from the rear into the wall paneling.
The electronics within the sensor sys­tem control a solenoid valve to provide
non-touch water control technology for
washbasins, shower facilities and the
flushing of urinals. When used for WCs
the fitting is combined with a solenoid
flush valve.

Depending on the application, the con­trol functions provided by the intelli­gent electronics include the ability to
adjust the sensor distance as well as a
time-controlled hygiene flush. The elec­tronis in the sensor is factory pro-

grammed and must always be
installed with a separate power supply
unit.

In conjunction with the latest genera­tion of ECC function controllers (ECC =
Ethernet Can Coupler) it is possible to
integrate selected fittings into the
AQUA 3000 open water management
system and to provide power at the
same time. By being linked together
on a network, the system's innovative
software provides functions for cen­trally controlling and managing any
number of sanitary fittings. To provide
data communication and host man­aged control functions, the respective
fittings must be connected to an ECC
via a specific cable network and
T-junctions.

There are different ways in which the
the sensor, the voltage supply (power
supply unit or ECC) and the solenoid
valve or the flush valve can be
installed:

• Via a service access duct located
behind the tiled dry wall

• Fixed within a tiled mounting plate

• Installation within removable
cladding

• Mounted within accessible
installation walls

• Fixed onto a stainless steel
cover plate

PROTRONIC – The new control system

Infrared sensor technology for all types of applications

PROTRONIC infrared sensor technology – a standard system for controlling electronic fi ttings used in washbasins, in showers and for urinal and
WC fl ushing. Designed for modern concealed installations. In every case it is necessary to install the sensor together with a power supply unit.
In combination with the latest generation of ECC function controllers, this technology can also be integrated into the AQUA 3000 open water
management system.

PROTRONIC – A3000 open fi tting for hand washing
with combined controller and solenoid valve

Text for specifi cations

PROTRONIC – A3000 open opto-electronically controlled DN 15
fi tting for washing unit with combined controller and solenoid
valve for concealed mounting. For connection to pre-mixed warm

or cold water supply.

Combined control unit with round opto-electronic sensor that is
mounted from the rear, with a polished chrome plate, with inte­grated control electronics, anti-twist feature, solenoid valve with
bilateral fl at-sealing screw connections with outer screw thread,
2 m actuator extension cable and connector line for external
power supply. With facility for externally controlling the options
such as fi ttings settings and communication via ECC function
controller.

Control functions:
– Optional temperature sensor for measuring temperature and

recording the data every 60 seconds or during thermal
disinfection every 10 seconds
– Time-controlled hygiene fl ushing, optionally with fi xed interval

or after a certain defi ned time after last usage

Additional functions with ECC function controller (Ethernet):
– Automatic thermal disinfection according to German DVGW

requirements as well as safety switch-off
– Cleaning system shut-down
– Second by second time adjustment for turn-off delay
