Multiple Faucets
Multiple faucets can be powered by a single transformer that has been
properly sized. Allow a minimum of 15 VA of current rating for each
solenoid valve used. Refer to the following example to determine the
required current rating for 3 OPTIMA faucets.
Example:
Total number of OPTIMA faucets:
3
Total number of solenoid valves: 3
Multiply by current rating: 15 VA
——
Minimum current rating of required transformer: 45 VA

For Dual Line Hot and Cold Water
Supply Applications
Install a 3/8 inch (10 mm) copper supply
tube between Bak-Chek
® Compression Tee
and hot and cold supply stops. (Supply
stops and copper supply tube furnished by
installer.) Install a 3/8 inch (10 mm) copper
supply tube between Bak-Chek
®
Compression Tee and inlet side of
Solenoid Valve. Tighten
Compression Fittings securely.
Note: Failure to install the Bak-Chek ® Tee
can result in a cross flow connection
when the faucet is off and the supply
stops are open. If pressure of the hot
and cold water supply differ, hot water
can migrate into the cold water supply or
vice-versa. Most plumbing codes require that
the Bak-Chek
® be used to prevent this.

Important: Keep thread sealant out of your waterway and prevent
component part damage! Do not use sealant on compression fittings.
When thread sealant is used, do not apply it to the first two “starter”
threads.
Important: Flush dirt, debris, and sediment from the supply line(s).
