Safety advice
DANGER!
Danger due to electrical current
An electric shock can lead to burns and serious injury and even death.
Work on the electrical system may only be carried out by trained electricians.
Switch off the mains voltage before connecting the power pack.
Intended use
Areas of application
A flush plate with infrared sensor in public or barrier-free sanitary rooms offers a practical and hygienic possibility to actuate a flush for users and carers. In addition, there is the possibility to connect radio controlled or cabled sensors to the electronic flush actuation, so that e. g. carers can actuate the flush from a convenient position, without having to be in the vicinity of the infrared sensor.
INFO!
An electrical connection must be planned for the electronic actuation in the area of the cistern when planning.
Only the large flush volume can be actuated with electronic actuation.
Viega Hygiene function
Flushes can be actuated at certain times via the Viega Hygiene function to prevent stagnation in the potable water pipelines.
Suitable cisterns
The flush plate is intended for touchless flush actuation of flushes on Viega concealed cisterns.
Installation is only possible in the following Viega concealed cisterns:
Cistern model 2H
Ascertain which model is installed before mounting. The following information will help you to determine the model of the cistern installed:
Cistern 2H
The inspection shaft of this cistern is found at a height of approx. 1 metre on the front.

Technical data
The product has the following technical data:
Flush volume
Depending on the setting ( Settings for the infrared sensor ), the infrared sensor automatically selects between the small or large flush volume.
If the external sensor (e. g. a remote button on the handle) offers two activation options, the electronic actuation can be used to select between the large or small flush volume.

Operating mode
Electronic actuation of a flush
A signal is sent to control the flush actuation through an external sensor, e. g. a button or photo sensor.
The control transmits the electronic signal to the drive unit.
The motor opens the drain valve via the Bowden cable.
As long as the drain valve is open, the set flush volume will flow into the WC.
Infrared actuation
Flush actuation takes place without contact via an infrared sensor on the flush plate. This sensor differentiates between a close and a far range.
a: Far range (blue) 450–550 mm
b: Close range (red) 0–30 mm
A flush can be actuated by holding a hand in front in the close range.
If a person stands in the long-distance range for more than 8 seconds, the flush actuation using the close range is automatically deactivated. This prevents an unwanted flush actuation.
After the flush is actuated, the close range sensor can then be used to actuate a second flush by hand.
If a person leaves the far range, a flush is automatically actuated.
If the long range is left within a definable time frame (30, 60 or 90 seconds), the small flush volume is used. If a person stays for longer, a flush with the large flush volume takes place.
After use, an additional flush cycle can be actuated through the close range sensor.
Viega Hygiene function
Stagnation can lead to the build up of germs (e.g. legionella) in potable water pipes. It is important to rinse the pipeline regularly to prevent the build up of bacteria. The Viega Hygiene function was developed for this reason.
Flushes can be actuated at certain times with the Viega Hygiene function. Interval and flush volume will be set as required and saved by the control. All settings remain saved during a power cut.
System expansions
The system's range of functions can be expanded through the connection of accessories onto the control.
Redundant power supply
To create a redundant power supply with an additional battery compartment as shown, you will need the following accessories:
The battery compartment can be connected for a redundant power supply using the adapter model 8355.91. The battery compartment is included in the adapter's scope of delivery.
Additional external sensors
One requires the following accessories to be able to connect an additional external sensor as shown:
With the extension cable adapter model 8350.36, an additional sensor can be connected to the infrared sensor.
Additionally required: 1 connection cable sensitive.
Buttons, switches or photo sensors for actuating the flush can be connected to the control on site via the connection cable sensitive model 8355.90.
Additional radio controlled actuation
One requires the following accessories to be able to connect the infrared sensor alongside a radio controlled actuation as shown:
With the extension cable adapter model 8350.36, an additional sensor can be connected to the infrared sensor.
Signals to actuate the flush (e. g. on support hinged handles) sent by HEWI radio transmitters can be received by the radio receiver model 8350.35.
Setting options
Settings for the infrared sensor
Range of the infrared sensor
The close range is set at 0 to 3 cm.
The far range can be set as follows:
- InfrarotsensorFernbereich
close range (approx. 450 mm)
medium range (approx. 500 mm) (factory setting)
far range (approx. 550 mm)
Differentiation of small and large flush volume
The differentiation between small and large flush volume takes place automatically depending on how long the WC is used. The differentiation is deactivated in the factory settings.
The following settings are possible:
Differentiation of small and large flush volume deactivated. This setting is the factory setting.
Large flush volume in the case of use of longer than 30 seconds.
In the case of shorter use the small flush volume is used.
Large flush volume in the case of use of longer than 60 seconds.
In the case of shorter use the small flush volume is used.
Large flush volume in the case of use of longer than 90 seconds.
In the case of shorter use the small flush volume is used.
Lid in front of sensor
This setting is 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.
However, during planning, we still recommend that the lid is not placed in front of the sensor in order to ensure the device works perfectly.
Flush settings
Flush volume
This criterion relates exclusively to the flush volume for flush cycles actuated electronically. The flush volume for hygiene flushes is set separately.
The following settings are possible:
Small flush volume 3 litres, large flush volume 4.5 litres
Small flush volume 3 litres, large flush volume 6 litres (factory setting)
Small flush volume 4 litres, large flush volume 9 litres
Interval (Viega Hygiene function)
