Electrically controlled shower fittings: Intelligent hygiene & efficiency
In modern sanitary design for the B2B sector, electrically controlled shower fittings are setting new standards in terms of hygiene and resource conservation. Whether in public swimming pools, hospitals, or sports centers – touchless or sensor-based activation minimizes the risk of germ transmission while simultaneously optimizing water consumption. Precise electronics ensure that the water flow is only activated when actually needed and stops automatically after a defined time or when the user leaves the sensor's range.
Smart technology for maximum drinking water hygiene
The use of electrically controlled shower fittings is one of the most effective measures for complying with drinking water regulations. Many of our systems feature a programmable hygiene flush that prevents stagnant water in the pipes and thus actively prevents the formation of Legionella bacteria. Thanks to modular energy concepts, these fittings can be operated either via a power supply unit or long-lasting battery systems, making them ideal for both new construction and retrofitting.
Sustainability through intelligent control
Electrically controlled shower fittings are a key component of sustainable building concepts. Precise adjustment of the water flow time, down to the second, drastically reduces operating costs for water and heating. Many models also offer thermal disinfection, which can be triggered remotely or via a central control module. This saves on personnel costs and ensures complete documentation of hygiene measures.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
High-quality , electrically controlled shower fittings either have a battery backup function or automatically close the valve (fail-safe) to prevent uncontrolled water flow. Battery-powered models are unaffected by power outages anyway.
Depending on the model, configuration is done via infrared remote control, directly on the sensor, or via app control. Rinsing intervals (e.g., every 24 hours after last use) and rinse duration can be individually set.
No, professional models for public areas are equipped with robust housings and scratch-resistant sensor windows. Furthermore, the electronics prevent continuous water release if the sensor is deliberately covered (safety shutdown).
