BathSelect Sensor Faucet Installation Guide

Understanding BathSelect Sensor Faucet Systems

Modern commercial and residential restrooms increasingly rely on touchless technology to improve hygiene, water efficiency, and operational reliability. BathSelect sensor faucets utilize infrared detection systems connected to electronic control modules and solenoid valves that automatically regulate water flow without physical contact.

When hands enter the sensing zone, the infrared sensor activates the solenoid valve to initiate water flow. Removal of hands immediately stops water delivery, reducing waste and minimizing surface contamination.

Step-by-Step Installation Process

  1. Faucet Mounting: Insert faucet through sink opening, install gasket and washer, tighten mounting nut, and align sensor toward user.
  2. Control Box Installation: Secure control box inside cabinet away from moisture while maintaining maintenance access.
  3. Water Supply Connections: Connect faucet outlet to control box inlet and supply line to outlet using sealed threaded fittings.
  4. Power Connection: Install battery pack or connect AC adapter to grounded outlet following local electrical codes.
  5. Sensor Activation: Connect sensor cable and power system; LED indicators confirm system startup.

Sensor Calibration & Final Testing

  • Factory sensing distance typically 4–5 inches.
  • Adjust detection range using control module settings.
  • Test automatic activation and shutoff repeatedly.
  • Confirm temperature mixing and leak-free operation.
  • Avoid reflective surfaces causing false activation.

Maintenance After Installation

Routine maintenance includes cleaning inlet strainers, inspecting batteries, removing mineral buildup, and verifying electrical cable connections.

Installation Best Practices

Maintain sensor clearance, flush supply lines before connection, and ensure accessible shutoff valves for long-term servicing efficiency.
