The urinal flush plate is intended for the contact-free actuation of flushes in urinals.
Flushes can be actuated at certain times via the Viega Hygiene function to prevent stagnation in the potable water pipelines.
The magnet valve should be cleaned once a year to ensure fault-free operation. See Cleaning the magnet valve
Physical environmental influences can impair the control function.
The Viega Service Center will answer any further questions on this subject.

Flush actuation takes place without contact via an infrared sensor on the flush plate.
The flush volume can be set in four stages.
In order to actuate a flush, a person must be within the detection area of the infrared sensor for at least 8 seconds.
If a person leaves the detection area, a flush is automatically actuated.
Depending on the setting, the flush duration is between 2 and 15 seconds.
A flush cycle can also be manually actuated by placing a hand briefly in front of the sensor.
Stagnation can lead to the build up of germs (e.g. legionella) in potable water pipelines. It is important to rinse the pipeline regularly to prevent the build up of bacteria. The Hygiene function was developed for this reason.
If no actuation was carried out during the set period of time, the Hygiene function automatically actuates a hygiene flushing.
The interval for the hygiene flushing can be set in five levels.
Range of the infrared sensor
The close range is set at 0 to 3 cm.
The far range can be set as follows:
Close range (approx. 400 mm), so that the flush cannot be inadvertently actuated.
medium range (approx. 450 mm, factory setting)
Far range (approx. 490 mm), so that the automatic flush actuation also works at a greater distance from the urinal.
Lid in front of sensor
This function is intended for the case that an open lid covers the sensor. The function is deactivated in the factory settings. If the function is activated, a flush cycle is actuated as soon as the lid is removed from the sensor zone.
Viega recommends however to make sure during planning that the lid is not placed in front of the sensor in order to guarantee perfect functionality.
Flush duration
The flush duration can be set in four levels. Using the guide values from the table below, you can determine the flush volume on the basis of flow pressure and flush duration:
Flow pressure | Flush duration 2 seconds | Flush duration 5 seconds | Flush duration 10 seconds | Flush duration 15 seconds |
---|---|---|---|---|
0.1 MPa (1 bar) | 0.5 l | 0.9 l | 2.2 l | 3.5 l |
0.2 MPa (2 bar) | 0.9 l | 1.8 l | 4.0 l | 5.6 l |
0.3 MPa (3 bar) | 1.0 l | 2.2 l | 4.5 l | 6.8 l |
0.4 MPa (4 bar) | 1.2 l | 2.7 l | 5.2 l | 7.6 l |
0.5 MPa (5 bar) | 1.3 l | 2.9 l | 5.7 l | 9 l |
Hygiene flushing
The setting determines if respectively how long after non-use a hygiene flushing is actuated.
The following settings are possible:
Hygiene function deactivated
Hygiene flush 1 hour after the last use
Hygiene flush 12 hours after the last use
Hygiene flush 24 hours after the last use (factory setting)
Hygiene flush 72 hours after the last use
Hygiene flush 168 hours after the last use
The following minimum distances must be complied with to ensure the infrared sensor works perfectly:
A minimum distance of 1000 mm must be maintained to the opposite walls.
If high-gloss wall claddings (polished tiles, mirrors, etc.) are situated opposite, increase the minimum distance to 1500 mm.
A minimum distance of 1500 mm must be maintained to urinals situated opposite with infrared sensors.
According to the applicable regulations, installation of the power pack in the protected zones 0 and 1 of shower rooms and bathrooms is not permitted, see Regulations from section: Fields of application / Mounting conditions .
Viega recommends installing the power pack outside of the protected zones 0–2.
Requirements:
The pre-wall element has been mounted.
The tiling work is completed.
The revision opening is freely accessible.
The urinal ceramic has been mounted.
Cut into the sticky tape of the shaft cover.
Remove the shaft cover.
Cut into the corners of the revision shaft.
Fold the sides of the revision shaft outwards up to the tile level and snap them off.
Open the shut-off with a screwdriver for a few seconds to rinse the pipeline.
Re-close the shut-off.
Remove the seal.
Grease the sealing elements.
Place the valve adapter on the magnet valve.
Ensure that the sealing element sits in the groove.

Danger due to electrical current
An electric shock can lead to burns and serious injury and even death.
Only allow electrical work to be carried out by qualified electricians.
Always de-energise the connection cable before work is commenced.
Requirements:
A 230 V mains connection is available on site.
The installation position of the power pack complies with the requirements in acc. with Installation position of the power pack .
The connection cable is de-energised.
Push the cables into the terminals.
Push the power pack into the revision opening.
Position the power pack, the battery compartment and the terminals.
Put on the installation frame.
Insert the retaining bolts.
Turn the retaining bolts by 90° in a clockwise direction.
Align the installation frame.
To fix the retaining bolts, turn safety rings in a clockwise direction.
Connect the magnet valve cable to the control.
Connect the power pack to the control.
Stand to the side of the panel so that you are not in the sensor’s detection area.
Open the shut-off valve.
Replace the flush plate.
The infrared sensor is calibrated (approx. 60 seconds); the flush plate emits red light during this time.
The flush plate is operative. The calibration of the flush plate may take up to 5 additional minutes. During this time, the flush plate lights up every 10 seconds.
Screw on the flush plate.
The range, flush duration, hygiene flushing and "Lid before sensor" parameters are set via the DIP switches of the IR control.
Make the settings in the currentless (unconnected) state.
Assignment of the DIP switches:
Switches 1‑2 determine the range of the infrared sensor.
Switches 3‑4 determine the flush duration.
Switch 5 activates the "Lid in front of sensor" function.
Switches 6‑8 determine the interval of the hygiene flushing.
