BENEFITS

Ark Sensor Taps are automatic faucets through which water flows only

when hands activate the fixture. These taps have built in infrared sensors

which sense the presense of an object i.e. user's hands in front of the tap

and sends signal to a solenoid valve to open. The flow automatically gets

terminated after a few seconds when the object is no longer present.

- Other than private residences, are also

suitable for public places i.e. public washrooms, particularly at

airports and hotels where they help reduce water consumption.

- As there are no points of contact transmission of

diseases is reduced.

- As excess water use is no longer an issue solely

for conservationists but also for the budget-conscious, sensors

can be seen as an investment as they pay for themselves with

reduced water consumption and maintenance costs.

Water Saving

Hygienic

Cost Saving

Our Sensor Taps models have the possibility to be powered by regular

AA batteries (Alkaline) or by mains 220 V AC via a 6V transformer or Both.

Automatic faucets were first developed in the 1950s but produced

commercially in the late 1980s. These have now become common in

developed countries. These save upto 70% water consumption.

INSTALLATION PROCEDUREPlease refer to the diagram:

Pillar Tap Sensors: (Fig. 1)

Install the Pillar Tap on the Wash Basin and tighten the Check

Nut.

Fix the connector on PVC pipe loose end.

Fix the other end of this Connector to the Control Box.

Bib Tap Sensors:

Fix Bib Tap Body on the wall socket of 1/2" Pipe Line .

Connect the other end of this 1/2" pipe line to the outlet of the

Control Box. Ensure that the control box is mounted vertically

as shown in fig. 2.

(Fig. 2)

CONTROL BOX INSTALLATION PROCEDURE:

For AC & DC and DC Models only:

Loosen the Control Box cover plate screws ( 6 Nos.)

(Only in AC & DC or DC models)

Remove the cover plate and insert AA size Alkaline Batteries

( 4 Nos.) inside theBattery Box.

Tighten the control box screws.

Fix the control box on the wall (Near or Below the tap).

Common for All Models :

Connect the water supply through valve V1 or Angle Valve and

then connect the pipe at inlet of Control Box.

Connect the 6 Pin Wire (from Pillar/Bib tap) to the Control Box

Connect the 3 pin plug to main supply only in case of AC/DC

and AC Models.

The Sensor Tap is now ready to work.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION & GUIDELINES

1. Duracell Alkaline 'AA' size batteries should be used for DC

Models.

2. The Control Box should be fixed vertically as shown in

diagram.

3. Provide a Stop Valve on the inlet line of Control Box.

4. Unplug the Power Cable/ Remove Batteries if the sensor tap is

not in use for longer periods.

5. Ideal Sensing distance is 15 Cm which is pre fixed in the

Sensor (All Models).

6. The sensing distance can be also adjusted with the help of the

Distance Adjusting screw provided on the cover plate.( To be

touched only if required)

7. Make provision of a 3 Pin socket near the Control Box ( For

AC/DC and AC Models).

8. Ideal inlet Water pressure required is 1 Bar - 5 Bars (Max.)

9. The AC/DC model can operate either on Mains or Batteries.

In case of a power cut it automatically switches to battery.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Sr. No.

PROBLEM REASON ACTION

4.

1. Sensor connected but not working

Plug /Batteries not properly inserted.

Old Batteries

Check the Plug /Batteries and insert them properly.

Replace the Batteries.

Worn out Rubber Washers/Seal or loose joints

Replace Sealing Washers/ Tighten Joints

Batteries have not been inserted properly in the Battery Box in case of AC/DC and DC Models

Take out the batteries and fix them properly .

Switch of the Power and switch it on after waiting for 10 seconds

Leakages

Improper Flow

2.

Sensor Malfunctions:The Sensor fails to read the hand when placed in front

3.

Sensor cable not plugged properly (In all Models).

Unplug the sensor cable and fix it again

Washbasin is big or small in size due to which the pre fixed sensing distance of 15cm is not being maintained.

Reset sensing distance with the help of the adjustment screw on the cover plate as shown in figure by carefullyrotating the adjustment screw with help of a Screw Driver.

The Pillar/Bib Tap Aerator is clogged.

Pressure is less than 1Bar. Check the inlet pressure which should not be less than 1 Bar ideally.

Remove Aerator and clean it.

Problem in the Solenoid Valve which is damaged or dust particles deposited on the valve seat

5. Continuous Water Flow

Shut the power Off and On a couple of times in intervals of 10 Seconds

Check the Solenoid Valve repair/replace it.
