automatic faucets-How does the piezoelectric technology work?
Piezoelectric technology is used for touch controls. If a force is applied to a piezo switch button, surface charges are induced by the dielectric displacement and an electrical field is built up. Electrodes transform it into electric voltage. This voltage is used to operate a solenoid valve that controls the ...
automatic faucets-What settings can be changed with the remote control
The remote control can be used to change the following parameters for all of Stern's products: Range: the sensor range is the range an object can be away from the sensor in order to activate the faucet. Security time (faucets and shower controls): the time the faucet will automatically shut ...
What kind of components does Stern supplies to other producers
Stern usually supplies “Component kits” which include all the components a faucet producer needs to prepare his own range of electronic faucets. A kit usually includes an infrared sensor, a solenoid valve, water proof connectors and a battery box if needed. There are kits for internal, external and concealed applications. ...
How do electronic faucets work?
Automatic faucets combine four key components: Solenoid valve, electronic unit (infrared sensor), power source, and faucet body. Solenoid valve: Transforming electrical energy into motion, the solenoid physically starts and stops the water flow. Stern products use \"latching\" solenoids. The solenoid is initially energized to start the water flow, the plunger ...
