Fontana Milan Chrome Sensor Faucet FAQ
Control Box Calibration, Sensor Relearning & Commercial Power Redundancy
The Fontana Milan Commercial Chrome Automatic Sensor Faucet integrates a
concealed control box, adaptive infrared sensing, commercial-grade brass
construction, and dual AC/DC power to provide dependable hands-free
operation for healthcare, hospitality, transportation, and institutional
restroom environments.
Why should the sensor cable be connected only after the basin and supply lines are completely prepared?
The Milan controller performs an automatic learning sequence immediately after the sensor cable is connected. The basin should be empty and all plumbing debris flushed beforehand so the sensor establishes an accurate reference field without interference from temporary objects or reflections.
How should the flexible hose be routed between the spout and control box?
The outlet hose should follow a smooth, unrestricted path without twisting, flattening, or sharp bends. Maintaining the recommended bend radius preserves hydraulic flow, minimizes pressure loss, and prevents premature hose fatigue during long-term commercial operation.
What verification confirms successful automatic sensor recalibration after installation?
Allow approximately 60 seconds for the controller to complete its calibration cycle, then perform repeated activation tests from multiple approach angles. Consistent response, stable discharge, and immediate automatic shutoff confirm that the infrared field has been correctly established.
How should engineers validate backup power reliability before facility handover?
Test the faucet under the primary AC supply, then simulate a power interruption to verify uninterrupted operation from the four AA alkaline backup batteries. Confirm identical sensor timing, valve response, and automatic shutoff under both operating modes before occupancy.
