T60siINTRODUCTIONThis book contains all the necessary fitting andoperating instructions for your T60si electricshower. Please read them carefully.The shower installation must be carried out by asuitably qualified person and in the sequence ofthis instruction book.Care taken during the installation will ensure along, trouble-free life from your shower.SPECIFICATIONSElectricalNominal power Nominal powerrating at 240Vrating at 230V8 kW – (40A MCB rating) 7.4 kW – (40A MCB rating)7 kW – (30A MCB rating) 6.5 kW – (30A MCB rating)WaterInlet connection – 15mm diameter.Outlet connection – 1/2” BSP male thread.Entry PointsWater – top, bottom and backCable – top, bottom and back.MaterialsBackplate, cover, controls, sprayhead – ABS.Sprayplate – Acetal.Elements – Minerally insulated corrosion resistantmetal sheathing.DimensionsHeight - 255 mmWidth - 182 mmDepth - 96 mmStandards and ApprovalsSplashproof rating IPX4.Complies with the requirements of current Britishand European safety standards for household andsimilar electrical appliances.Complies with requirements of the BritishElectrotechnical Approvals Board (BEAB).Meets with Compliance with EuropeanCommunity Directives (CE).ADVICE TO USERSThe following points will help you understandhow the shower operates:A The electric heating elements operate at aconstant rate at your chosen power setting. It isthe flow rate of the water passing through theheater unit which determines the showertemperature at any given setting. (The slower theflow the hotter the water becomes, and the fasterthe flow the cooler the water).B During Winter the mains water supply will becooler than in the Summer. Therefore thetemperature of the shower will vary betweenseasons on any one setting of the temperaturecontrol, e.g. if you have chosen setting number 6as your preferred shower temperature in theSummer, you may have to increase that numberduring Winter by adjusting the temperaturecontrol anti-clockwise (which in effect slows thewater flow).C The stabiliser valve minimises variations inshower temperature during mains water pressurechanges. If changes in shower temperature areexperienced during normal use, it will most likelybe caused by the water pressure falling near to orbelow the minimum level. The drop in pressuremay be due to water being drawn off at otherpoints in the house whilst the shower is in use. Ifpressure drops appreciably below the minimum,the heating elements will automatically cut out.If ever the water becomes too hot and youcannot obtain cooler water, first check thatthe sprayplate in the sprayhead has notbecome blocked.DO NOT place items such as soap or shampoobottles on top of the unit. Liquid could seepthrough the joint between the cover andbackplate, and possibly damage the sealingrubber.Replacement parts can be ordered from TritonCustomer Service. See 'spare parts' for detailsand part numbers.Due to continuous improvement and updating,specification may be altered without prior notice.2

T60siELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTSRCD(can be part ofconsumer unit)Fuse ormcbWARNINGTHIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHEDThe installation, supply cable and circuitprotection must conform with IEE wiringregulations and be sufficient for theamperage required.The following notes are for guidance only:1 The shower must only be connected to a230-240V ac supply. If you are installing a showerwith a kilowatt rating above 9kW, it is advisableto contact the local electricity supply company.1.1 The electrical rating of the shower is shownon the rating label (fig.2) within the unit.80A or 100Amain switchConsumerunitMetertailsPull cordisolating switchFig.2MeterShowerunitFig.3 schematic of installation circuitIncomingsupplyfuse2 Before making any sort of electricalconnection within the installation, ensure that noterminal is live. If in any doubt, switch off thewhole installation at the consumer unit.3 The shower must be connected to its ownindependent electrical circuit. IT MUST NOT beconnected to a ring main, spur, socket outlet,lighting circuit or cooker circuit.3.1 The electrical supply must be adequate forthe loading of the unit and existing circuits.4 Check your consumer unit (main fuse box)has a main switch rating of 80A or above and thatit has a spare fuse way which will take the fuse ormcb necessary for the shower (fig.3).4.1 If your consumer unit has a rating below80A or if there is no spare fuse way, then theinstallation will not be straight forward and mayrequire a new consumer unit serving the house orjust the shower.4.2 You will need to contact the local electricitycompany. They will check the circuit and carry outwhat is necessary. They will also check the mainbonding.5 The earth continuity conductor of theelectrical installation must be effectivelyconnected electrically to all exposed metal parts ofother appliances and services in the room inwhich the shower is to be installed, to conform tocurrent IEE regulations.Table ACIRCUIT PROTECTIONunitcartridgerating mcb fuse7.0kW 30/32A 30A7.5kW 32A 35A8.0kW 40A 35A8.5kW 40A 45A9.0kW 40A 45A9.5kW 40/45A 45A10.5kW 45A 45A4

T60siELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS5.1 All exposed metallic parts in the bathroommust be bonded together using a cable of at least4mm 2 cross sectional area. These parts includemetal baths, radiators, water pipes, taps andwaste fittings.6 For close circuit protection DO NOT use arewireable fuse. Instead use a suitably ratedminiature circuit breaker (MCB) or cartridge fuse(see table A).6.1 In the interest of electrical safety a 30mAresidual current device (RCD) should be installedin all UK electric and pumped shower circuits. Thismay be part of the consumer unit or a separateunit.7 A 45 amp double pole isolating switch witha minimum contact gap of 3mm in both polesmust be incorporated in the circuit.7.1 It must have a mechanical indicatorshowing when the switch is in the OFF position,and the wiring must be connected to the switchwithout the use of a plug or socket outlet.7.2 The switch must be accessible and clearlyidentifiable, but out of reach of a person using afixed bath or shower, except for the cord of acord operated switch, and should be placed soTable BTwin and earth PVC insulated cableCURRENT CARRYING CAPACITYclipped direct orinstalled in an in conduit buried in a noninsulated wall or trunking insulated wall6mm 2 6mm 2 6mm 232A 38A 46A10mm 2 10mm 2 10mm 243A 52A 63Athat it is not possible to touch the switch bodywhile standing in a bath or shower cubicle. Itshould be readily accessible to switch off afterusing the shower.8 Where shower cubicles are located in anyrooms other than bathrooms, all socket outlets inthose rooms must be protected by a 30mA RCD.9 The current carrying capacity of the cablemust be at least that of the shower circuitprotection (see table B).9.1 To obtain full advantage of the powerprovided by the shower, use the shortest cableroute possible from the consumer unit to theshower.9.2 It is also necessary to satisfy thedisconnection time and thermal constraints whichmean that for any given combination of currentdemand, voltage drop and cable size, there is amaximum permissible circuit length.10 The shower circuit should be separated fromother circuits by at least twice the diameter of thecable or conduit.10.1 The current rating will be reduced if thecabling is bunched with others, surrounded bythermal loft or wall insulation or placed in areaswhere the ambient temperature is above 30°C.Under these conditions, de-rating factors applyand it is necessary to select a larger cable size.10.2 In the majority of installations, the cablewill unavoidably be placed in one or more ofthe above conditions. This being so, it isstrongly recommended to use a minimum of10mm cabling throughout the showerinstallation.10.3 In any event, it is essential that individualsite conditions are assessed by a competentelectrician in order to determine correct cable sizeand permissible circuit length.16mm 2 16mm 2 16mm 257A 69A 85ANote: Cable selection is dependenton de-rating factors5

It must be anindependent supply to the shower only.If it is intended to operate the shower at pressuresabove the maximum or below the minimumstated, contact Customer Service for advice.Fig.4 shows a typical system layout.Do not use jointing compounds on any pipefittings for the installation.SITING OF THE SHOWERWARNING: The shower must not bepositioned where it will be subjected tofreezing conditions.FOR EASE OF SERVICING, THE UNIT MUSTALWAYS BE MOUNTED ON THE SURFACE OFTILED WALLS. NEVER TILE UP TO THE UNIT.Refer to figure 5 for correct siting of shower.Position the unit where it will NOT be in directcontact with water from the sprayhead. Positionthe shower unit vertically.Allow sufficient room between the ceiling and theshower to access the cover top screws.NOTE: Water regulations require the sprayhead be‘constrained by a fixed or sliding attachment sothat it can only discharge water at a point not lessthan 25mm above the spill-over level of therelevant bath, shower tray or other fixedappliance’. The use of the supplied retaining ringwill in most cases meet this requirement, but ifthe sprayhead can be placed within a bath, basin6

T60sior shower tray, then a double check valve, orsimilar, must be fitted in the supply pipework toprevent back-flow.Pressure relief safety deviceA pressure relief device (PRD) is designed into theshower unit which complies with Europeanstandards. The PRD provides a level of applianceprotection should an excessive build up ofpressure occur within the shower.DO NOT operate the shower with a damaged orkinked shower hose, or a blocked sprayheadwhich can cause the PRD to operate.When commissioning, the sprayhead must beremoved from the flexible hose, while at the sametime the temperature control must be at theminimum flow position. Failure to follow thisprocedure may also cause the PRD to operate.Ensure the shower is positioned over a bath orshower tray because if the PRD operates, thenwater will eject from the bottom of the unit.Should this happen, turn off the electricity andwater supplies to the shower at the isolatingswitch and stopvalve.

T60siA 15mm x 15mm straight coupler or elbow fitting(fig.10) must be used for connection to theshower inlet. NOTE: The shower inlet connectionis designed to enter a compression fitting only.DO NOT use push fit connectors as fullengagement cannot be guaranteed.Ensure the plastic filter (fig.11) is inserted in thesupply pipe before connection. This helps toprevent ingress of debris.If entry is from the rear, the conex nut fitting willbe partially behind the surface of the wall (fig.9).This area must be left clear when plastering overthe pipework in order to make the nut accessiblefor future adjustments.DO NOT use excessive force when making theseconnections.When all pipework is complete, temporarily placethe backplate unit onto the pipework and markholes on the wall for the fixing screws (fig.12).Remove the backplate and drill and plug the holesto suit fixing screws supplied. (The wallplugsprovided are suitable for most brick walls – use anappropriate masonry drill, but if the wall isplasterboard or a soft building block, you mustuse special wallplugs and an appropriate drill bitobtainable from most hardware stores).Important: Before completing the connection ofthe water supply to the inlet of the shower, and incompliance with Water Regulations, flush out thepipework to remove all swarf and system debris.This can be achieved by connecting a hose to thepipework and turning on the mains water supplylong enough to clear the debris to waste.After flushing out, turn off the mains watersupply, re-position the unit onto the pipeworkand tighten final connection at shower inlet.Turn on the water supply and check for watertightness.Position the backplate onto the wall and screwthe top and bottom fixing screws into position.Ensure the unit is square on the wall and tightenthe two fixing screws.FilterElbow orStraightcouplerFig.10Fig.11Fig.129

Loose connectionscan result in cable overheatingNOTE: The supply cable earth conductor must besleeved. The outer sheath of the supply cablemust be stripped back to the minimum allowingsufficient to be held at the clamp (fig.14). Thecable clamp is suitable for 6 mm 2 cable, or can bereversed for use with 10 mm 2 cable.If a cable larger than 10 mm 2 is used, DO NOT usethe cable clamp. Instead, the cable must besecured either by routing through conduit or intrunking or by embedding in the wall, inaccordance with IEE regulations.The use of connections within the unit, or otherpoints in the shower circuit, to supply power toother equipment i.e. extractor fans, pumps etc.will invalidate the guarantee.DO NOT switch on the electricity supply untilthe cover has been fitted.CableclampNOTE: The elements on UK models are to240V specification and will give a lower kWrating if the voltage supply is below 240V.10

T60siREPLACING THE COVERThe power selector spindle must be aligned asshown (fig.15).To ensure that the temperature control is correctlypositioned on the stabilising valve, temporarilyplace the cover in position so that the splinesengage and rotate the temperature control fullyclockwise until a ‘stop’ is felt. The valve is now inthe closed position.Remove the cover and position the temperaturecontrol so that it points towards the ‘STOP’position (fig.16).Position the power selector on the cover to the'ECONOMY' position (fig.17).Replace the cover squarely to the backplate andguide into position so that the knobs locatecorrectly into the splined spindles.

T60siFITTING THE HOSE AND SPRAYHEADFeed the flexible hose through the hose retainer(fig.23), in order that it acts as a retaining ring –Water Regulations.Screw the flexible hose to the shower outlet andsprayhead (fig.24) ensuring the supplied washersare in place at both ends of the flexible hose.Place the sprayhead into the holder (fig.25) andcheck that it fits correctly. NOTE: The holder isslightly tapered and the sprayhead will only fitfrom one direction.Important: It is the conical end of the hose whichgrips into the holder. The sprayhead will not fit inthe holder without the hose attached.However at this stage, disconnect the sprayheadand lay aside until the shower unit has beencommissioned.ShowerSprayheadFig.23Fig.24WashersHolderSprayheadFig.2513

T60siFig.26Fig.27COMMISSIONINGThe first operation of the shower is intended toflush out any unit debris and to ensure the heaterunit contains water before the elements areswitched on. The electricity must be switched OFFat the isolating switch. The flexible hose must bescrewed to the shower outlet but without thesprayhead attached to the hose. Ensure the outletof the hose is directed to waste.Ensure the water supply is turned OFF at theisolating stopvalve.Rotate the temperature control fully anticlockwiseto ‘10’, the minimum flow position(fig.26). NOTE: Leaving the control at anyposition other than ‘10’ may cause the PRD tooperate.Turn the water supply back ON at the isolatingstopvalve.Wait until water starts to flow from the flexiblehose then rotate the temperature controlclockwise to ‘1’, the maximum flow position(fig.27).It will take approximately thirty seconds for asmooth flow of water to be obtained whilst airand any debris is being dispersed from theshower. When a smooth flow of water isobtained, rotate the temperature control from ‘1’to ‘10’ and back again several times to release anytrapped air within the unit.Once the flushing out has been completed, stopthe water flow by rotating the temperaturecontrol fully clockwise to the 'STOP' position.Fit the sprayhead to the flexible hose and place inthe holder.Switch on the electricity supply to the shower atthe isolating switch.The shower is now ready for normal operation.NOTE: IN NORMAL USE, IT IS IN ORDER TOLEAVE THE WATER SUPPLY PERMANENTLYON TO THE SHOWER UNIT, BUT AS WITHMOST ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES, THE UNITMUST BE SWITCHED OFF AT THEISOLATING SWITCH WHEN NOT IN USE.14

T60siOPERATING THE SHOWERNOTE: Ensure the commissioning procedure hasbeen carried out.The flow of water is controlled by the combinedstart/stop temperature control. To obtain warmwater turn the control slowly anti-clockwise to themid position (fig.28).If the water is too hot, turn the temperaturecontrol slowly clockwise towards the low numbers(fig.29).If the water is too cool, turn the temperaturecontrol slowly anti-clockwise towards the highnumbers (fig.30).To stop the showerTurn the temperature control fully clockwise tothe ‘STOP’ position, and water will cease to flow.WARNING: If re-starting immediately afterstopping, be aware that a slug of hot water willbe expelled for the first few seconds.Fig.28Fig.29Fig.3015

T60siFig.31PowerselectorEconomyHighTemperaturecontrolPower selectorThe power selector (fig.31) has two positions –economy and high.Single red symbol is an economy setting for usingless power during warmer months when theambient water temperature is high.NOTE: If the stated flow rate required for the unitcannot be met due to low water pressure, it willbe necessary to operate the unit on this settingduring the warmer months because of flow ratelimitations entering the unit.Double red symbol is a high setting which allowsthe highest flow achievable for your preferredtemperature. This setting should be regarded asnormal for optimum shower performancethroughout the year.WARNING: After any servicing of the mainswater supply, always start the unit with theelectricity OFF at the isolating switch and thenrotate the temperature control fully anti-clockwisein order to purge any air in the pipework.NOTE: It is advisable to be certain that theshowering temperature is satisfactory by testingwith your hand before stepping under thesprayhead. There will always be a time delay often to fifteen seconds between selecting a flowrate and the water reaching the stabletemperature for that flow rate.CAUTION: It is recommended that persons whomay have difficulty understanding or operatingthe shower controls should not be left unattendedwhilst showering. Special consideration should begiven to young children and the less able bodied.16

T60siOPERATING FUNCTIONSPower indicatorThe power neon (fig.32) will light when thetemperature control is turned to the ‘start’position indicating that power is on to the heatingelements. It will remain lit at all positions between‘1’ and ‘10’, but will extinguish when the controlis turned back to the ‘stop’ position. Notehowever, that the neon will extinguish duringnormal showering if the low water pressure cutoutoperates.Low water pressure cut-outIf the water pressure falls below the minimumrequired for correct operation of the shower,power will be switched off to the heatingelements preventing any maintained temperaturerises (water will continue to flow).Power will automatically be restored whenadequate water pressure returns.Temperature limiterDuring normal operation if an overheattemperature is sensed, power to the elements willbe reduced. Water will continue to flow. Whenthe temperature has cooled sufficiently, power tothe elements will be automatically restored to theprevious setting at the time of interruption.Safety cut-outThe unit is fitted with a thermal cut-out safetydevice. In the event of abnormal operation whichcould cause unsafe temperatures within the unit,the device will disconnect the heating elements. Itwill require a visit from a qualified engineer todetermine the nature of the fault and replace thesafety device, once the unit has been repaired.Fig.32Powerneonindicator17

T60siFig.33'O' ringSprayheadSprayplateCLEANINGDo not use abrasive or solvent cleaningfluids. The shower unit, riser rail, hose, etc.should be cleaned using a soft cloth andwarm water.It is advised before cleaning, to turn the isolationswitch off, thus avoiding the shower beingaccidentally switched on.IT IS IMPORTANT TO KEEP THE SPRAYHEADCLEAN TO MAINTAIN THE PERFORMANCE OF THESHOWER. The hardness of the water willdetermine the frequency of cleaning. For example,if the shower is used every day in a very hardwater area, it may be necessary to clean thesprayhead on a weekly basis.BezelSprayplate removalRemove the sprayhead from the hose. Unscrewthe bezel and remove the sprayplate completewith ‘O’ ring from the sprayhead (fig.33).Clean the sprayplate with a suitable brush orpreferably leave to soak overnight in a mildproprietary descalent. Ensure all traces of scale areremoved and thoroughly rinse in clean waterafterwards.Carefully replace the ‘O’ ring onto the sprayplateand replace the sprayplate into the sprayhead.Secure by screwing on the bezel.Before replacing the sprayhead on the hose, it isadvisable to direct the hose to waste, switch OFFthe electricity supply at the isolating switch andturn the temperature control to ‘1’.This operation will flush out any loose scaledeposits in the unit. Stop after approximatelythirty seconds and replace the sprayhead.Turn on the electricity supply.18
