Mark the position on the wall ready for mounting; drill suitable holes,
insert the rawl plugs and secure the control box using the screws
provided.
Secure and tighten the flexible hose from the tap connection to the
solenoid outlet.
Attached the other flexible hose provided to the inlet connection on the
solenoid valve and tighten to form a seal.
This flexible hose should be connected to the water supply pipe.
The controller is designed to take a 230V mains power supply and
convert it using the internal transformer to a 6V supply. The mains
power cable should have the live and neutral connected into a fused
spur.
Please note the control box is double insulated.
The controller is
supplied with a battery
back-up, the Saracen
IR Eco tap comes
supplied with 4 x
AA batteries, ensure
these are placed in
the battery box and
re-secure with the
screws.
Secure the cover onto
the control box using
the screws provided.

User Activation
Activation & Maintenance
Water will flow from the tap when hands are close to the IR eye and
will stop immediately upon leaving this area of vision.
If the IR sensor is activated for a period longer than 1 minute the water
supply will automatically stop but can be reactivated again
Sensing Range
The IR sensor is factory set to a sensing distance of 15cm. This
sensing distance can be adjusted as follows:
1. Switch off the power to the control by disconnecting the power
leads and wait 30 Secs
2. Reconnect the power cable
3. Immediately place your hand at a distance of less than 50mm from
the sensor while the red LED within the sensor is blinking
4. When the red LED stays on, draw your hand back to the desired
distance.
5. Wait until the red LED goes off and then remove your hand.
6. The set range is now stored in the memory of the sensor
Integral Strainers
The solenoid valve comes with an integral strainer on the inlet
water supply connection, to clean this isolate the water supply and
remove the hose from the inlet connection, remove the strainer and
rinse under clean running water, re-insert the strainer back into the
connection and tighten the hose to form a water tight seal, re-open the
water supply.

Batteries
If the batteries are dead the LED will flicker 3 times in 1 sec, if this
happens the batteries will need to be replaced.
1. Remove the cover from the control box.
2. Remove the battery box and open the cover to access the
batteries.
3. Replace all 4 AA batteries ensure the + and – are correct to the
indicators on the box.
4. Replace the cover on the battery box and reposition this in the
control box.
5. Finally replace the control box cover.

Aftercare
Saracen electronic taps have a high quality finish and should be
treated with care.
An occasional wipe with a mild detergent on a soft damp cloth
followed by a thorough rinse and wipe dry with a soft clean cloth is all
that is required.
Do not use an abrasive or chemical household cleaner as this may
cause damage to the surfaces.
When cleaning bathroom tiles the tap should be protected from any
splattering of harsh cleaners.

Cause
Problem
Clean the sensor with a soft dry cloth. Please note: The
sensor will automatically cut off after 1 min if there is
continual use
Remove the object which is causing the reflection
Remove the solenoid valve from the control box; access the
integral parts by removing the screws and flush the body
through with clean running water ensure the pin hole on the
diaphragm is free from scale and re-assemble.
Check pressures and put additional devices in place to
ensure the pressure is between 0.5-0.8Bar
Remove, rinse under clean running water and re-assemble
Check power source, power cable and replace the 4 x AA
batteries in the control box
