Question Date Required: 2/5/2013 As per the approved plumbing fixture submittal, Rado is currently furnishing electric flush valves for Water Closets/Bed Pan Washers/Urinals. Would it be acceptable to switch to battery operated flush valves thus eliminating the need for required transformers? This would prevent shutting down multiple fixtures/transformers if a circuit needs to be worked on. Respective cut sheets are attached. Suggestion Answer Yes, switching to battery is acceptable.

OPERATION 1. A continuous, invisible light beam is emitted from the OPTIMA Plus Sensor.
2. As the user enters the beam’s effective range (22” to 42”) the beam is reflected into the OPTIMA Plus Scanner Window and transformed into a low voltage electrical circuit. Once activated, the Output Circuit continues in a “hold” mode for as long as the user remains within the effective range of the Sensor.
3. When the user steps away from the OPTIMA Plus Sensor, the circuit waits 3 seconds (to prevent false flushing) then initiates an electrical signal that operates the Solenoid. This initiates the flushing cycle to flush the fixture. The Circuit then automatically resets and is ready for the next user.
