Moen Inc.’s Commercial Division, a leader in hands-free flush-valve technology, introduces a new line of easy-to-operate FreeHand™ High Efficiency flush valves. These valves promote water and energy savings by using an infrared sensor beam to activate a flush cycle when a user is in range, ensuring efficient water use and the ultimate in sanitary protection.
FreeHand High Efficiency flush valves also help to promote water savings with new low-flow rates. Water closet flush valves feature a flow rate of 1.28 gallons per minute (gpm), a 20-percent savings from the industry standard of 1.6 gpm. FreeHand High Efficiency Urinal flush valves feature a flow rate of 0.5 gpm, a 50-percent savings from the industry standard of 1.0 gpm.
FreeHand High Efficiency flush valves are available in a variety of efficient options, including battery-powered flush valves that utilize standard lead-free AA Alkaline batteries, or low-powered AC adapters.
FreeHand High Efficiency flush valves feature:
-
Solid brass, chrome-plated construction to withstand constant use.
