› Watertrain® is a newly designed, internal water flow system that directs water from the angle valve to the aerator without coming into contact with the faucet body.
Drinking water flow separated from the faucet body
By separating the drinking water from the faucet body, Watertrain® can offer manufacturers additional flexibility in design and material selection—depending on the specific faucet configuration and the requirements of the target market.
Potential throughout the product lifecycle
- Material concepts: The separated water flow path can support the use of alternative materials and construction methods because the faucet body does not come into contact with drinking water.
- Water quality / migration of metals and heavy metals: Since the drinking water does not come into contact with the faucet body, Watertrain® can help reduce potential migration of substances from the faucet body into the drinking water—depending on the design and installation situation.
- Standardized Components: Standardized components support efficient logistics and warehousing processes. Thanks to its modular design, Watertrain® can be used for a wide range of faucet designs and sizes.
- Disassembly & Recycling: The modular design of Watertrain® can facilitate the disassembly of faucets as well as the separation of components for downstream recycling processes—depending on product design and disposal methods.
