Performance
The specification performance outlined below for the standard appliance is achieved with a blend set between 35°C - 45°C and supplies of 15°C cold and 65°C hot with nominally equal pressures
Thermostatic Version
- The blended water temperature is maintained within 1°C with a 10°C change in the hot or cold water supply
- The thermostat effects a shut down in approximately 2 seconds if the cold supply fails.
- Shut down is achieved only if the hot supply is a minimum of 12°C above the blend temperature
- The blended water temperature is maintained within 1.5°C when the pressure between inlet and outlet is halved (defined as a pressure los ratio of 2:1) on either the hot or cold side.
- Temperature overshoot will not exceed 50°C when adjusting the blend temperature from full cold to full hot.
Guarantee
Guaranteed for one year from date of purchase against faulty materials or workmanship. Optional extended warranty available from Mira Customer Support.
