Sensor Taps
Sensor operated taps have a huge advantage over lever taps as they reduce water use, only functioning when a user's hands pass through the infra-red sensor. However, they also help to improve hygiene in your commercial washroom, as users do not need to touch the tap before or after washing their hands. Sensor taps are also known as automatic taps as they operate when a user's hands come in contact with the sensor and basin.
In our Ideal Ceramics range we have sensor taps available in wall and deck mounted styles. Choose from a battery or mains operated controller. Scroll down below to see the difference between battery, self powered and mains operated controllers.

What s the purpose of a Sensor Tap?
Sensor taps reduce water wastage as they have a lower flow rate in comparison to traditional hand-operated taps and will only function when the sensors detect a hand movement in the infrared light. With an automatic sensor tap you do not have to worry about taps accidentally being left running overnight, this helps you to reduce the amount of water wasted and saves on your water bill. Sensor tap are more popular in public bathrooms such as malls, offices, schools and airports.
Do sensor taps use main power or batteries?
Most automatic sensor taps are powered by the main AC electricity supply and are equipped with a DC battery backup. In the event of a Kenya power outage, the battery backup power source ensures the taps continue to function, providing seamless operation in the bathroom.
