Sloan has launched a major new platform of sensor-activated faucets that emphasizes faucet functionality, interchangeable componentry and improved serviceability. The new BASYS platform features five modular, advanced function faucets that meet the divergent demands of specifiers, customers and maintenance professionals and can be used in any commercial application.

Any Application. Any Environment.

The BASYS concept is built on a robust system of shared features and components. The faucet platform offers simplified service with above-deck access and advanced features such as a full stream aerated water flow and selectable operational modes.

“Interchangeability of components is a key part of BASYS because this simplifies orders, upgrades, maintenance and repairs,” explains Rick Nortier, faucet product line manager for Sloan. “Along with this interchangeability, customers can choose many options in terms of power sources, including a new turbine power-harvesting technology, faucet body types, operational displays and more.”

The BASYS line includes:

- Five body types: Four deck-mounted faucets of different heights and one wall-mounted model.

- Three spray modules: Low-flow multi-stream laminar (0.5 gpm), as well as full stream aerated and laminar models (1.5 gpm) — which provide options to adjust flow rate and feel of water.The full, wide water stream presentation is unlike any other sensor faucet.

- Two sensing technologies: Active infrared and capacitance sensing.

- Four crowns: The interchangeable, removable crown, or top surface, of the faucet provides options advanced features such as embedded solar panels, or an LCD display showing wash times and water temperatures. Because the crowns are interchangeable, owners can switch to a new crown that would offer solar or the LCD display.

- Four power choices: Battery power, hardwire, solar power and a new turbine power harvesting option cover every power requirement.

Key benefits:

- Installation simplified: Sloan continues its tradition of above-deck electronics with BASYS. The faucets come complete with all electronics in the spout and the water lines attached, enabling a complete and secure installation in minutes.

- Easy to service: Diagnosis is easier with separate indicator lights for battery and solenoid. The smart design includes one simple tool for service, as well as enabling water shut off with a rotation of the solenoid caddy.  

- Energy efficiency: Batteryservice life easily exceeds three years in the most demanding conditions using standard, affordable alkaline batteries. Upgrading to a solar-powered crown is simple and will increase battery service life up to the seven-year shelf life.
