Binoptic Mixer Sensor Tap

The Delabie Binoptic Mix Tap is a sensor operated basin mixer for commercial and public washrooms. An infrared sensor at the end of the spout detects hands and starts the water automatically, so nobody needs to touch the tap. The body is chrome plated solid brass and each tap is supplied with its own electronic control unit rated IP65, along with the filters, solenoid valve and flexible pipework needed to connect it to the water supply. The control unit also runs a preset duty flush of about 60 seconds every 24 hours after the tap was last used, which keeps water moving through the pipework rather than sitting still.

Variants cover three configurations. Wall mounted models fix to a cross wall with the pipework hidden behind it. Deck mounted models sit on the basin or counter and are offered with a 110mm, 170mm or 250mm drop height to suit a standard, semi recessed or countertop basin. Each configuration can be specified with mains power, which steps 230V down to 12V through a transformer, or with a 6V lithium battery pack that needs no mains wiring. All configurations are available in chrome plated or matt black chrome finish.

The tap runs a short automatic flush about every 24 hours after it was last used, which stops water sitting still in the pipework and supports Legionella control in line with water hygiene guidance. It is also stated as suitable for people with reduced mobility, making it a fitting choice for accessible washrooms designed around Document M requirements.

Key Features

  • Hands free operation: An infrared sensor at the end of the spout starts and stops the water automatically, so users never need to touch the tap.
  • Automatic duty flush: The tap flushes itself for about 60 seconds every 24 hours after it was last used. This stops water sitting still in the pipework and helps meet water hygiene rules.
  • Adjustable flow rate: Flow is preset at 3 litres per minute at 3 bar but installers can adjust it from 1.4 to 6 litres per minute.
  • Water saving: Delabie states the sensor operation can cut water use by up to 90 percent compared with a standard tap.
  • Safe water temperature: A side lever sets the temperature and includes an adjustable limiter, so the maximum temperature can be capped to help prevent scalding.
  • Built to last: The body is chrome plated solid brass and the electronic control unit is rated IP65 for protection against water and dust. It carries a 30 year warranty.
  • Simple maintenance: An LED on the control unit helps installers diagnose faults without dismantling the tap.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the mains powered and battery powered versions?

The mains version connects to a 230V supply through a transformer that steps it down to 12V. The battery version runs on a 123 type 6V lithium battery, so no mains wiring is needed at the tap.

Can the flow rate be changed after installation?

Yes. The tap is preset to 3 litres per minute at 3 bar but installers can adjust it from 1.4 to 6 litres per minute.

What is the difference between the 110mm, 170mm and 250mm deck mounted versions?

The drop height is the distance from the base of the tap down to the spout outlet. 110mm suits a standard basin, 170mm suits a semi recessed basin, and 250mm suits a countertop basin.

Does the tap clean itself?

It runs a duty flush of about 60 seconds every 24 hours after it was last used, so water does not sit still in the pipework when the tap is not in regular use.
