Armstrong hot and cold water hose stations replace the basic Mixing Y with a Rada® 320 thermostatic mixing valve as the primary water temperature controller. With the Rada 320 you can:
- Change outlet water temperature from full cold to the field-adjustable maximum limit stop in a single handle turn
- Set and lock to a single temperature and maintain outlet temperatures +/-2˚F (1˚C) in the event of inlet pressure and/or temperature fluctuation or change
- Protect the operator a thermal-shutdown feature if the cold water inlet supply fails
IMPORTANT NOTE: Thermostatic products used by our competitors for this application cannot provide a temperature range from full cold to the field-adjustable maximum limit stop. Nor can they access temperatures within 5°F (2°C) of either inlet supply temperature. Various hose lengths, spray nozzles and hose reels are available as options for Armstrong hot and cold water hose stations.
The Armstrong Hot & Cold Hose Stations – Recessed-In-Wall series is supplied fully assembled and pressure tested designed for flush mount installation.
Model 3401
Features a Rada 320 Thermostatic Mixing Valve designed for wall-recessed installation and includes combination inlet isolation/strainer/check valves and stainless steel panel-mount thermometer. The mixing valve, pipe work and associated components are secured within a rugged steel mounting frame and concealed behind a 13.25" x 23.25" polished stainless steel access panel.
The 3401 also includes an exposed polished chrome temperature-control handle and stainless steel flow-control ball valve. The unit is ideal for clean rooms, pharmaceutical mixing rooms, research labs or similar locations where temperature-controlled hot water is required, but where surface-mount piping and fixtures are undesirable.
