Direct Flush Valve with infrared sensor (Main Flushing) Three Variations

Direct Flush Valve is an infrared sensor controlled mains-flushing urinal valve. The Direct Flush automatically flushes the individual urinal after use, ensuring the highest level of hygiene from the minimum volume of water. The cost-effective solution to maximize urinal hygiene and water economy, Direct Flush removes the need for the auto-flush cistern and associated plumbing used in traditional urinal installations, which flush all urinals intermittently even if they have not all been used.

Direct Flush includes an integral DC pipe interrupter (air gap), enabling the installer to connect it directly to the mains water supply. This provides fluid category 5 back-siphonage protection, without the need for any additional backflow prevention or check valves.

Features and benefits:

• Designed for urinals flushing directly from the mains cold water supply (no cistern required).
• Only flushes urinal bowl after use.
• Hygiene flush for periods of non-use (WRAS no longer allows products to be shipped with this feature activated. It can be reactivated if the building it is being installed in completes and signs off a risk assessment that allows it).
• Vandal-resistant, with valve totally concealed.
• Adjustable flush duration and range.
• Discreet and Accessible fitting options.
• Chrome or brushed Chrome finish options.
• Mains and battery powered, both options are included as standard.
• BREEAM Wat 01 compatible product.
• Ensures compliance with the Water Regulations.
• Reduces water consumption and washroom odours.

How the product works:

• The Direct Flush infrared sensor detects the user at the urinal bowl and flushes two seconds after the user departs.
• The LED flashes green every three seconds whilst a user is detected. If a user is detected whilst the water is flushing, the flush is automatically arrested to prevent splashing and wastage. 
• During the flush, the LED flashes green once a second.
• The flush duration is adjustable which ensures that only the minimum amount of water necessary is used.
• If there has been no use of the urinal for 12 hours, the Direct Flush automatically runs a hygiene flush to prevent odours and the build-up of uric acid in the pipework. (WRAS no longer allows products to be shipped with this feature activated. It can be reactivated if the building it is being installed in completes and signs off a risk assessment that allows it).
• Direct Flush Accessible provides convenient access to the flushing solenoid valve and connections, via removal of the fascia plate with integral infrared sensor.
