Ideal Standard enriches its range of contactless faucets with Intelliflow and Sensorflow

Already present in the collective with its Intellimix and Sensorflow contactless electronic faucet ranges, Ideal Standard enriches its offer with Intelliflow and introduces, for the first time on the residential market, a hybrid basin mixer combining contactless technology with that of a traditional faucet: Ceraplan iX. Enough to have a complete range of intelligent solutions combining hygiene, sustainability and energy savings!

A first in the home: Ceraplan iX, double-lever basin mixer

Designed to save energy and water, the new Ceraplan iX dual-control mixer benefits from patented BlueStart® iX technology. The cell detects the presence of hands and opens the tap without contact and only with cold water (no volume of water arrives from the water heater), a guarantee of safety and economy.

During contactless use, only cold water flows for a limited time (automatic shutdown either by absence of detection or timed).

When used mechanically by activating the lever, the user then has the comfort and freedom of a traditional mixer tap and can adjust the desired temperature and flow rate.

With Ceraplan iX, Ideal Standard also places hygiene at the heart of its concerns. In the service of hygiene, the contactless function reduces the spread of germs and avoids cleaning.

Installed in the toilet or in a laundry room, with its soft lines and its height of 90 mm under aerator, Ceraplan iX offers great comfort of use.

Fun for the youngest, this two-in-one solution teaches them the right actions to avoid wasting water. For people with lower mobility, it makes using the tap easier.

Powered by an external battery box (6 V CR-P2) to be installed under the sink, it is equipped with:

• a chrome-plated brass body or a matte black finish,
• an aerator with maximum flow limiter 5l/minute,
• a cartridge (diameter 38 mm) with Firmaflow® ceramic disc with metal pivot which offers more precise temperature adjustment and extends the life cycle of the faucet,
• an integrated temperature limiter,
• anti-twist PEX supply hoses.

In addition to this new offer, Ideal Standard offers, in addition for the collective, three ranges of contactless electronic faucets: Sensorflow, IntelliMix® and the latest Intelliflow. Low flow solutions, they are adapted to the hygiene and sustainable savings needs of public toilets and establishments open to the public (offices, airports, shopping centers, etc.) meeting the strictest requirements in terms of environmental performance (BREEAM and LEED ). To facilitate their installation, they benefit from EasyFix® technology (30% reduction in assembly time).

Intelliflow, durability, comfort and controlled operating costs

Hygienic, Intelliflow provides a comfortable, efficient and splash-free hand washing experience, while delivering exceptional water savings thanks to the integrated next-generation infrared sensor with high performance.

Intelliflow was developed using Ideal Standard's EcoLogic approach for more sustainable products, in response to the growing demand for environmentally friendly solutions in non-residential projects. With a flow rate of 1,9 liters per minute, it not only meets the strict requirements of BREEAM and LEED certifications, but also promotes responsible water use in busy washrooms, offering a 62% reduction compared to traditional taps with a capacity of 5 liters per minute. Despite its low flow rate, Intelliflow offers a pleasant feeling of comfort for the user, ensuring a superior washing experience without compromising on performance. This result is obtained thanks to the laminar flow projected forward by a fine and unique aerator.

The new Intelliflow touchless electronic faucet also features an elegant and modern design, available in chrome and black – a PVD coated finish which offers an increasingly popular color in public washrooms and exceptional longevity.

Functional, Intelliflow features advanced SmartFlow sensor technology from Ideal Standard. By connecting a Bluetooth module (not included) to the faucet, SmartFlow allows adjustment and control of parameters via a user-friendly mobile application, available on iOS and Android platforms. Building owners and facility managers can now make changes to multiple products simultaneously, saving valuable time and resources. For even more flexibility, basic functions and settings can also be easily changed with predefined gestures, without having to use the app. Additionally, Intelliflow's SmartFlow sensor adapts to its environment through self-calibration, virtually eliminating false activations. Likewise, maintenance is also facilitated by preventive and alert messages (battery change, etc.). Reports make it easy to view usage statistics. Intelliflow is quick to install and simple to maintain. The battery and the solenoid valve being integrated into the body of the device, they are accessible from above the faucet. Intelliflow's clean lines and smooth surfaces make cleaning simple.

It is available in 2 versions, mains or battery-powered:

• electronic tabletop mixer (with optional Bluetooth module)
• table-top single-fluid faucet

IntelliMix®, hand hygiene redefined

Distinguished in 2021 by two major design awards, the Red Dot Design Award and the iF Design Award, Intellimix® is an intelligent sensor mixer that dispenses both water and soap.

Available in Chrome and Onyx Black finishes, Intellimix® has been designed to provide superior hygiene and lasting savings in water and maintenance costs. Although it provides an optimal volume of soap in each wash for better hygiene, Intellimix® saves up to 80% soap. In fact, Intellimix® mixes the soap with air to create a soft foam that is not only pleasant on the skin but also economical. The soap is dispensed by a quality pump whose tested lifespan is more than 500.000 cycles.

To prevent the proliferation of bacteria inside the taps, a periodic rinse is triggered mechanically after a specific period of time.

Another advantage, Intellimix® uses 85% less water than a traditional mixer by following the washing cycle recommended by the WHO. The water flow limiter of 2 liters/minute and its programmable timer allow significant savings.

For intuitive use, it is equipped, at the top of the faucet, with a digital screen which displays clear instructions to improve the hand washing experience.
