Sensor washbasins
Sinks with sensor switch
Are you setting up your first catering establishment and want to arrange your kitchen so that you can easily take care of hand hygiene? Or maybe you are going to start a food production plant, so you are buying equipment for a hygiene and sanitation room? Our sensor sinks are just what you’re looking for!
We offer stainless steel sanitary equipment that is perfect for everyday use. They have special mechanisms that allow you to start the flow of water without touching the tap. Thanks to the non-contact operation of the mixers, there is no risk of pathogens on dirty hands getting back onto hands after washing them.
Stainless steel washbasins – what models are available?
Maintaining cleanliness in food production facilities is crucial if you want to offer healthy and safe raw materials or foods. A properly arranged washroom will help you maintain proper hygiene levels.
Its equipment should include devices for cleaning shoes and hands. Among them should not miss practical washbasins with knee or sensor switches. With us you will find various models: a single-chamber sanitary unit, a trough with 2-5 stations and a hygienic panel.
Sinks with sensor switch
Single-compartment sinks are very versatile and will work well in any food production facility, as well as, for example, in the back room of a catering establishment. We offer models for hanging on the wall, as well as with a leg for placing on the floor.
These sanitary units take up little space, so you’re sure to find a space in which to put them. However, this is not their only advantage. Single-compartment washbasins:
Are made entirely of stainless steel. This makes them easy to keep clean – the chambers simply need to be washed with the appropriate liquid, and then wiped with a cloth to make the devices shine again. You can also use a steam cleaner to clean the sinks. The steel is resistant to high temperatures and does not deform under their influence;
have a raised back wall to protect the walls from splashing and moisture. As a result, there is no risk of mold growth on the wall behind the sinks, which could be hazardous to the health of workers or adversely affect food;
have a photocell or knee switch that allows you to start the flow of water without touching the tap. This significantly reduces the risk of transferring bacteria from dirty fixtures to washed hands.
Single-compartment washbasins with a sensor or knee switch will work especially well in small rooms with a small group of workers passing through. They can also be installed in a large washroom. There they will provide an additional place to wash hands, if you have, for example, an extended hygiene station with a place to clean hands.
Steel washbasins: washbasin troughs and photocell washbasins
Washbasins in the form of a trough will work well when you have a large team that needs to get ready in a short period of time. These models can have from 2 to even 5 stations! At the same time, they take up much less space than 5 individual basins mounted side by side. Decide on a gutter and you’ll save space in the washroom, while ensuring that multiple employees can wash their hands at the same time.
With us you will find stainless steel washbasins that differ not only in the number of stations, but also in the way the water flow is activated. We offer:
Sinks with a knee switch – the button is located in the front of the baths. To start the flow of water, lift the knee and gently touch the designated area. After a few tens of seconds, the devices turn themselves off, so you don’t have to touch the button again;
Sinks with a sensor switch, or photocell – it is located on the front of the tubs. All you have to do is approach the sanitary device to get the water flow started. The procedure is fast and without contact with the device!
Sinks with knee or sensor switches can additionally be equipped with containers for soap, disinfectant or disposable towels for wiping hands. In addition, at your request, we can make sensor basins on the leg. This will make it possible to set them on the floor without putting too much strain on the walls of the building.
Hygiene panels
The hygiene panels are in the form of stainless steel walls with a sink, soap and disinfectant dispensers, a paper towel receptacle and a garbage can for used materials. These are ready-made kits that can be immediately mounted on the wall – no need to buy additional accessories for their installation.
Hygiene panels:
They are as high as 95 cm, so they protect the entire wall well from water. There is no risk of dampness on the wall during hand washing, which could contribute, for example, to the development of mold in this area;
Are made of stainless steel. This makes them look aesthetically pleasing and easy to clean. Use a suitable liquid or steam cleaner to wash them. That’s all it takes to make the sinks sparkle.
These sanitary units have a sensor switch (i.e., a photocell), which, depending on the model, can be activated with your foot / knee or when you stand in front of it. Choose the model that works better for your facility. If you opt for the first one, you need to remember to press the button yourself to wash your hands. On the other hand, after installing the second model, approach the sink to turn on the water flow.
Hygiene panels will work well in small washrooms. They do not take up a lot of space, so there will still be enough space in the room to move freely.
You can also install these models in the social room. This will allow employees to conveniently wash their hands during a break, for example, before eating.
Sinks with sensor or knee switch – why choose them?
Sinks with sensor or knee switches are increasingly being chosen for food production facilities. This is happening for a reason. This type of sink has many advantages:
are hygienic – the flow of water in these sanitary devices is activated when you approach the sink or press the appropriate button with your knee. It is not necessary to touch their elements with your hands. As a result, the pathogens on them are not transferred to the surroundings and there is no risk of microorganisms getting back on them after washing your hands. This has a positive impact on the level of employee hygiene;
allow you to save money – the flow of water in sensor sinks automatically shuts off after a few tens of seconds. As a result, workers do not wash their hands endlessly. This reduces water consumption. In addition, in this type of device there is no possibility of water pouring for a long time because, for example, someone forgot to turn off the tap. The system itself shuts off the water supply after a certain period of time. Importantly, the sinks can also be set, for example, with a slower water flow rate and lower water temperature. This reduces water consumption per hand wash, as well as energy consumption for heating. This, in turn, translates into lower utility bills;
Are convenient to use – the use of sensor sinks is very easy. All you have to do is walk up to them or gently press a button to get the water flowing. There is no need to turn off the taps, adjust the water temperature or remember to turn off the valve. This reduces the time spent at the sanitation unit and greatly speeds up the process of getting the team ready for work. As a result, even a large crew can quickly and thoroughly clean their hands with these sinks;
are environmentally friendly – less water and energy consumption for heating it does not only have a positive impact on utility bills, but also on the environment. The lower the demand for raw materials, the less degradation of the environment. In addition, if water does not need to be heated to a high temperature, stoves can operate at a lower power, so less polluted air is released into the atmosphere.
The purchase of a sensor sink can bring positive effects not only to the company’s budget, but to the entire environment!
Sensor washbasins – what to remember before installing them?
Are you interested in washbasins or hygiene panels? Before buying these sanitary devices, prepare:
the necessary plumbing and drainage system – if you are looking for sinks for the renovated room, pay attention to which side the drain is located in them. The models offered have it on the left side, but at your request we can prepare a device with a drain on the right side. However, remember to inform us in advance;
electrical installation – it is necessary for the installation of sensor sinks. In order for the photocell to operate without interference, a suitable power supply is needed = 230 V AC. Remember to prepare them before you install sanitary facilities. This will allow all cables to be hidden in the walls and the room will be safe for users.
Do you want to install wall-mounted sinks? Models without legs are great because you can, for example, wipe the floor underneath them without any obstacles. However, before you decide to hang them, check whether the walls can withstand such a load. You may find that they are too thin to be able to install sufficiently strong dowels that can withstand the weight of sanitary appliances.
