Water
Optimal hygiene, water-conservation, and vandal-resistance
The last decade has witnessed a rapid evolution of no-touch plumbing systems. INTERSAN's passive body heat detection system represents a culmination of years of searching for the ideal hands-off plumbing activation system. INTERSAN has developed a Master Control Unit which can control a multitude of heat sensors, solenoid valves and timers simultaneously. A unique patented system
Independent functioning for 8 years
Common active detection systems utilize an emitter that generates signals such as infrared or ultrasonic signals, which are reflected back to a receiver. INTERSAN's detection system is passive : no signals are emitted. The system is waiting in a quiescent state until the sensor detects a human hand in its broad detection area.
Three-dimensional detection field
INTERSAN utilizes optical lenses to delineate the expanded detection field of the passive system in terms of width, length and height. The detection field is self-adjusting in that it adapts itself to the contours of the plumbing fixture. The result is a broad user-friendly detection area, ideal for use by people with disabilities as well. In addition, the precision design of the detection field prevents possible activation by passers-by.
Battery-operation = longevity of 8 years !
The INTERSAN passive detection system consumes minimal amounts of energy : it does not emit a powerdraining signal, and only the finest solid state technology with energy-saving components is used. A long-life lithium battery-pack provides the Master Control Unit and the electromagnetic valves sufficient power for approximately eight years.
Maximum water-saving
The Master Control Unit, energized by a lithium battery-pack (longevity of 8 years !), registers pulses from the heat-sensors, analyzes these according to the factory set flow cycle, and accordingly determines whether or not to open or close the appropriate solenoid valves.
Easy operation and accessibility, ideal for people with disabilities
Hands-free operation
The passive detection system is the ideal solution for hand washing facilities which are often a breeding ground for bacteria and germs. Users should no longer be worried about unsanitary conditions ; the hands-free operation of water and soap prevents contact with soiled and/or contaminated fixtures.
Electronic hands-free water supply systems are water-conserving in design and function. Through precise micro-processor control, and through the use of accurate flow regulators, both the duration and the volume of water spent is controlled, thus offering maximum water-savings without sacrificing user convenience. To satisfy the most divergent applications INTERSAN developed three major types of electronic washfountains.

The water-conserving nozzles with automatic flow controls offer a refreshing spray
The protected passive heat sensor
As an option, all washfountains can be equipped with the appropriate soap dispensing means
Similar to a satellite, the Sanispray®-head detects signals, viz. human warmth, and translates these into useful information for the operation of the electronic system

Operation
Maximum hygiene and minimal maintenance
Easy, one trade installation
The Master Control Unit registers inputsignals from the appropriate heat-sensors, analyzes these according to the factory set flow cycle, and accordingly generates an output-signal that is transmitted to a timing-device unit and/or to the control section of the solenoid valves. The Master Control Unit is preprogrammed to automatically open or close valves and/or change timers depending on the application requirements. As the passive detection system functions on human warmth, it is unaffected by skin color, darkness, sunlight, noise or foreign objects. Hands-off water and soap operation
Through the hands-free operation of water and soap, users no longer have to worry about the risk of infections and/or the spread of germs that may arise from contact with the fixtures. Optimal sanitary accommodations remain guaranteed at all times. Minimal maintenance
The use of quality engineered electronic and mechanical components coupled with a 8 year lithium battery-pack results in minimal maintenance needs over the life of the washfountain. Through the parabolic shape of the bowl, the waste water drains off directly. These self-draining and self-cleaning aspects keep a Sanispray® bowl clean and hygienic. To allow for easy cleaning and drying of the Sanispray ® , a cleaning function is available in option. This option provides the washfountains to be placed, either manually or via a remote control device, in a mode where all the valves remain closed for a period of time of 2 minutes. A final hold off of 3 seconds terminates the function and makes the washfountain fully operational again. One trade installation : easy and economical
For rapid and flexible installation of supplies and drains, all Sanispray® washfountains are equipped with stainless steel
flexible supply lines, stop ball valves with integral strainers and with a flexible drain. All electronic components are pre-assembled requiring no field installation. The lithium batteries serve as the only power source thus limiting installation to the plumber. No electricians are needed for costly connections of wiring and transformers ; electrical inspections are not required. Neither are masonry or dry wall modifications nor are repairs that typically result from the installation of electrical wiring and/or connections. Vandal-resistant
The Sanispray® electronic washfountains are hands-free operated, and consequently do not contain handles to entice potential vandals. The Master Control Unit, battery-pack and solenoid valves are integrated into the washfountain and secured by a vandal-resistant fastening system. The heat sensors as well as the spraynozzles are of the vandal-resistant type. Unlimited applications
The concept of the Sanispray® electronic washfountains lends itself to a wide range of applications. In schools and universities, for example, they are appreciated for the friendly but resolute means of water-conservation and for the significant resistance against potential vandalism. In an industrial environment, especially the sturdy rugged design and minimal maintenance are valued. There is no question that all users will benefit from the no-hands hygienic feature of the Sanispray® electronic washfountains !
To offer a consistent system for these widely diverging applications, the Sanispray® electronic washfountains come in three versions : MAXI-SPRAY, MINISPRAY and HI-TRAFFIC.

'MAXI-SPRAY'-Operation
When a user places his or her hands underneath one of the individual nozzles, the water flow is initiated. Since the 'MAXI-SPRAY' operation was conceived for thorough washing, the water remains flowing as long as required. Only when the sensor detects the withdrawal of the hands for a period of time will the Master Control Unit initiate a signal to cease the water flow. As each individual nozzle has its own sensor, solenoid valve and timing device system, it functions independently from all the other sensors, valves and timers connected to the Master Control Unit. Characteristics

Soap outlet
As soon as a user presents his or her hands underneath one of the individual nozzles, the water starts flowing from it. Then, after a fixed minimal period of water flow, the valve is closed when hands are withdrawn from the detection area. If the user remains present for more than 30 seconds, the Master Control Unit automatically interrupts the ongoing washing-cycle. An interval of 2 seconds is programmed between 2 cycles. Each individual nozzle has its own sensor, solenoid valve and timing device system and thus functions independently from all other sensors, valves and timers connected to the Master Control Unit. Characteristics
Important water conserving features • maximal water-savings : water only flows when required • fights water wastage : water flows for a maximum period of thirty seconds. After this, an interval of two seconds of no water flow encourages the user to leave • combats 'water-vandalism' : potential vandals will be discouraged from playing with the system by the two second interval Increased user convenience Optimal barrier free operation • the broad three-dimensional detection field and the five seconds minimal period of water flow not only allow the user to soap his hands in a convenient way before washing, but ensures the easiest possible operation : ideal for abled and people with disabilities • maximum hygiene Option : No-touch liquid soap dispenser

Operation
Option : Soap dispenser
As soon as a user places his or her hands in the detection area of one of the individual sensors, the collective sprayring starts spraying water all around the washfountain. Once activated, the water flow continues until all users have departed from the washfountain. To prevent water wastage, however, the Master Control Unit closes the solenoid valve of the collective sprayring when only one person is present at the washfountain for an overly long period of time.
A liquid soap dispenser with liquid soap valves can be mounted on top of the sprayhead.
Characteristics
The electronic washfountain HI-TRAFFIC is ideal for common collective washfountain applications, including but not limited to washrooms that are highly frequented by large groups of people simultaneaously, in which case they offer the most economical and practical solution. Such restrooms include those of factories, locker rooms, arenas, stadiums, etc. : INTERSAN brings the electronic age to traditional group washing environments.
• minimal water consumption : The collective washfountains have a water-saving sprayhead and a built-in automatic flow control regulator, resulting in considerable water conservation when compared to an identical quantity of individual nozzles. The electronic flow control regulation system makes sure that water only flows when needed, and prevents wastage and abuse. • optimal user convenience : The collective control system consists of a number of individual sensors with their own detection field, which are connected to one single solenoid valve and a central control system. In this way, a large detection area covering the entire washfountain is created, enabling the easiest possible operation. • 'automatic' maintenance : The collective sprayring flows until shortly after the last user has left the washfountain. As residues of soap and dirt are rinsed away continuously, the self-cleaning parabolic bowl maintains its hygienic appeal. • maximum hygiene • optimal barrier free operation : The actual detection area almost covers the entire washfountain • vandal-resistance : All major electronic and mechanical components are concealed in the fixture to protect them from potential abuse
Option : Cleaning function For easy cleaning and drying of the washfountains, a cleaning function in option is available. This option allows the washfountain to be manually put in a stand-by mode where all valves remain closed for a period of 2 minutes. Applications
