Drain Separation

Do not locate the power adapter or controller directly beneath the lavatory trap, tailpiece or other drainage connections that may leak during service.

Drip-Risk Exclusion Zone

Establish a dry electrical zone that avoids areas directly below supply fittings, hose unions, mixing valves and drain joints.

Cabinet Floor Clearance

Do not place the AC power adapter, transformer or loose electrical connectors directly on the cabinet floor where water may collect.

Service Disconnect Access

Provide a serviceable means of disconnecting faucet power without removing the basin, countertop or permanent cabinet construction.

Connector Identification

Label or clearly differentiate the power, sensor and solenoid connectors so field technicians can identify each connection during commissioning.

Cable Service Loop

Where appropriate, provide a modest service loop sufficient to allow the controller to be inspected without placing tension on cable connectors.

Controller Access Zone

Maintain clear working space in front of the control box so power, sensor and valve connections can be reached during maintenance.

Power Component Removal Path

Show how the transformer or AC adapter can be removed from the cabinet without disconnecting the basin or dismantling permanent millwork.

Finished AC Electrical Arrangement

The completed installation should present an organized electrical system with securely mounted components, protected cables, clearly identified connectors and appropriate separation from plumbing.

Engineering note: The product page identifies a 220–240V AC, 50/60Hz operating option and an alternative DC 6V battery configuration.
