Armitage Shanks has introduced a new demountable hospital mixer with a detachable spout to its Markwik range.
The demountable mixer option allows removal of the whole body of the fitting from the wall, as well as having a removable spout. Markwik’s in-built sterilisation system already allows hot water to be flushed through all areas of the tap using a sterilisation bridge. The demountable body allows the fitting to be totally immersed for disinfection in sterilisation fluid, while the detachable spout can be sterilised in an autoclave. There is also the option for disinfection using a bridging tube. On commission, a purging kit allows thorough flushing through of any debris.
The profile of the tap and inlet positions remain the same, meaning the new Markwik range can be fitted as part of a new installation, or retrofitted.
Armitage Shanks said: “The additions to the Markwik range will ensure that it remains fully compliant in addressing all the requirements for hospital fittings and infection control regimes.”
