Abstract

Bei einer Wasserauslaufeinrichtung mit einem ersten, mit einem Handgriff (1) stellbaren Ventil (3) sowie wenigstens einem zweiten, von einer Steuerelektronik (5) stellbaren Ventil (4), wobei die Ventile (3,4) in Reihe angeordnet sind und die Steuerelektronik (5) mit einer, wenigstens einen Sensor aufweisenden Detektionseinrichtung (6) zur berührungslosen Steuerung und einem Sensor (100) am Handgriff (1) zur Steuerung durch Berührung verbunden ist, ist vorgeschlagen, dass
  • der Sensor (100) am Handgriff (1) vorrangig in der Steuerelektronik (5) geschaltet ist, so dass nur während der gesamten Berührungsdauer des am Griffarm (10) ausgebildeten Sensors (100) durch einen Benutzer das zweite Ventil (4) von der Steuerelektronik (5) in Offenstellung gehalten ist,
  • die Detektionseinrichtung (6) nachrangig in der Steuerelektronik (5) geschaltet ist, so dass das zweite Ventil (4) von der Detektionseinrichtung (6) nur gesteuert ist, wenn der Handgriff (1) des ersten Ventils (3) vom Benutzer nicht berührt ist,
  • die Detektionseinrichtung (6) während der Betriebsdauer permanent eingeschaltet ist.
