Introducing Delta Faucet Company’s 81T Series Flush Valve with H2Optics™. Suitable for commercial and institutional applications, Delta’s H2Optics™ hands-free technology is one of the most advanced sensing technologies in the industry today for electronic faucets and flush valves. With the ability to accurately sense the user’s distance, regardless of external factors such as light reflection, clothing colour and textures or dryness of one’s skin, H2Optics™ provides consistent, dependable results.
Besides having H2Optics Sensing Technology, the newly re-designed flush valve’s compact hub has many smart features incorporated into it.

Smart Solutions
Want to keep an eye on your battery life?  It’s easy with the 81T Series external battery strength indicator.  This smart design provides a view of the battery life by holding down the override button for 10 seconds. 

Concerned about conserving water?  The 81T Series has dual flush capabilities which can help your project qualify for LEED® points.  The reduced flush of 1.1 gallons (4.2 liters) is initiated one of two ways:
1. If the user is standing in front of the toilet bowl or if the user is seated for a time period of 60 seconds or less. 
2. When full flush of 1.6 gallons (6 litres) is initiated if the user is seated for 90 seconds or more.

Concerned about maintenance hassles? Flush valve installations in high volume public facilities can take a beating.  We’ve designed the 81T Series to be cost efficiently and easily maintained. Accessibility to the valve lens for replacement has been made easy and cost effective.  If a lens becomes damaged, the hub can be opened and the damaged lens can easily slide out and be replaced, eliminating the need to replace the complete hub. There are no special tools required or any need to replace the complete hub.  Also, the smart design of the battery pack means that maintenance staff can easily access the batteries without exposing the electronics of the flush valve.
