INTRODUCTION
T
his book contains all the necessary fitting and
operating instructions for your Triton high
pressure thermostatic mixer shower. Please read
them carefully.
Please read through the whole of this book
before beginning your installation.
T
he installation MUST be carried out by a
suitably competent person and in sequence of
this instruction book.
Care taken during the installation will give a long
and trouble free life from your mixer shower.
T
hermostatic mixers will automatically maintain
y
our chosen temperature, even if taps are turned
on elsewhere in the house, and shut off if either
the hot or cold supply fails.
For the best performance within the specified
running pressure range a minimum flow of
eight litres per minute should be available to
both inlets.
T
he mixer shower MUST NOT be subjected to
w
ater temperatures above 80°C.
T
his mixer is designed to operate on higher
pressure systems found in the UK up to a
maximum of 5 bar running pressure.
T
he high pressure valve is suitable for modulating
type combination boilers and multi-point hot
w
ater heaters. It is also suitable for thermal
storage, unvented systems and pumped gravity
systems.
IMPORTANT: Before installing with a gas
instantaneous water heater, make sure it is
capable of delivering hot water at a minimum
switch-on flow rate of 3 litres per minute. At
fl
ow rates between 3 and 8 litres per minute,
the appliance must be capable of raising the
w
ater temperature to a minimum of 52°C.
T
he water temperature at the inlet to the mixer
must remain relatively constant when flow rate
adjustments are made.
Inlet connections are by compression fittings for
15mm copper pipe.
T
his valve unit is supplied with a mounting
bracket to suit installation in a chased out cavity
in a solid wall, a stud partition wall, dry lined wall
or fixing to a shower cubicle or panel.
SAFETY WARNINGS
Layout and sizing of pipework MUST be such
that when other services are used, pressures
at the shower control inlets do not fall below
the recommended minimum.
DO NOT choose a position where the shower
could become frozen.
The outlet of this appliance MUST NOT be
connected to any form of tap or fitting not
recommended by the manufacturer.
The showerhead MUST be regularly cleaned
to remove scale and debris.
Conveniently situated isolating valves in each
inlet supply MUST be fitted as an
independent method of isolating the shower
should maintenance or servicing be necessary.
If it is intended to operate the shower in areas
of hard water (above 200 ppm temporary
hardness), a scale inhibitor may have to be
fitted. For advice on the Triton scale inhibitor,
please contact Customer Service.
Do not operate the shower outside the
guidelines as laid out in ‘site requirements’.
