the following apply.
automatic diverter
part of sanitary tapware capable of switching the water supply from the shower hose outlet (secondary outlet)
to the bath outlet (primary outlet) in the event of insufficient supply pressure. It incorporates the following
characteristics:
a) means of manually diverting flow to a hose outlet and of maintaining diversion as long as a positive supply
pressure is maintained;
b) automatic closure of the hose outlet with anticipation and return to air gap discharge when the supply
pressure falls below a prescribed minimum;
c) sufficient mechanical loading to maintain closure of the hose outlet in the event of a negative supply pres-
sure.
For the purpose of this document "automatic diverter HC "is hereafter referred to as "device(s)"
4 Nominal size and pressure ranges
The nominal size of non-integrated devices (DN) shall correspond to the denomination of the thread according
to Table 1.
Nominal size is not applicable to integrated devices.
For specifications of threads please see 8.2.
