Electronic fittings capable of operating by producing their own
electricity: An economically and ecologically progressive idea that
has
now become reality with the GROHE power box.
Infrared controlled fittings, for example in airports, public
sanitary rooms or leisure
facilities, can now operate autonomously, without depending on
power supplies. The power box combines optimum hygiene via
touch-free controls with minimum energy consumption for
electronics.
This is how it works: A turbine in the power box is driven by the
water supply each time the fitting is operated. This converts
kinetic
energy into electrical energy and stores it to operate the infrared
electronics. Using the generator for as little as 60 seconds
delivers
enough electricity to power the fitting for 24 hours.
New standards regarding sustainability and protection of
resources through energy conservation
High efficiency and autonomy: especially in sanitary rooms
where establishing a power supply is difficult or rather prone to
disruptions
Exceptional ease of servicing the power box with a service life
of 10 years: a reduction in maintenance and lower operating
costs
Perfect support for demand driven and hygienically recommended
water delivery with touch-free controls
Unique storage technology: Efficient energy storage
The power box can be combined with three different wash basin
fittings: Europlus E and Eurosmart Cosmopolitan E models with
integrated temperature-mixing can be powered via the power
box. The Euroeco Cosmopolitan E for cold or premixed water can
additionally be fitted with a Grohtherm Micro for thermostatic
safety.
