MONOLITH Electronic Faucet S007 for Hygienic Catering Worktops

An electronic faucet removes the need to touch the tap with soiled hands, reducing cross-contamination in busy catering environments. The unit senses movement beneath the spout and opens a solenoid valve, allowing mains-pressure water to flow without physical contact. When the sensor no longer detects motion, the valve closes, stopping the water automatically. This method cuts waste and keeps the worktop drier, while the absence of a manual handle lowers the risk of transferring bacteria from raw ingredients to clean surfaces.

The operator simply places hands or utensils under the spout; the sensor triggers a three-second burst of water. If hands remain in the detection zone, the flow continues in three-second increments until the anti-vandal protection cuts in after thirteen seconds of uninterrupted use. A mechanical side lever adjusts the temperature mix between hot and cold supplies, giving instant control without electronic calibration. Every twenty-four hours after the last use, the faucet runs a brief hygienic flush to clear stagnant water from the internal pipework, protecting against Legionella bacteria.

Construction is a single-piece brass body with a vandal-resistant sensor window. The unit runs on replaceable lithium batteries, so no hard-wiring is required and installation can be completed on any existing sink without electrical work.

The three-second flow time limits water use per activation, helping to meet water-saving targets in commercial kitchens. The thirteen-second anti-vandal shut-off prevents accidental or deliberate flooding if the sensor is obstructed. The daily hygienic flush maintains water quality without manual intervention, reducing the risk of bacterial growth in infrequently used taps. Mechanical temperature adjustment via the side lever allows quick changes between cold rinsing and warm washing without waiting for electronic feedback.

Cleaning involves wiping the sensor window and spout with a damp cloth; no disassembly is needed. The lithium batteries should be replaced when the low-battery indicator flashes, typically once or twice a year in normal use.

The faucet is listed in the MONOLITH catalogue under Electronic Taps for Catering and Healthcare.
