American Standard 6047800.002 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the American Standard 6047800 bedpan washer diverter come with a flush valve?
No. The 6047800 is the diverter assembly only, and the flush valve has to be ordered separately. What you do get in the box is the wall support, a 1-1/2 inch (38 mm) spud coupling and flange, the straight vacuum breaker tube, and the high back pressure vacuum breaker. Budget the flush valve as a separate line item on the job.
2) What size spud connection does the American Standard 6047800 diverter use?
It ships with a 1-1/2 inch (38 mm) spud coupling and flange, which is the standard top-spud size on commercial flushometer water closets. If the bowl on your opening is prepped for a 1-1/2 inch spud, the coupling in the box mates to it without an adapter.
3) Does the 6047800 bedpan washer diverter include backflow protection for a healthcare fixture?
Yes, a high back pressure vacuum breaker is part of the assembly. That is the piece that keeps the hose-and-spray side of a bedpan washer from back-siphoning into the potable supply, which is why bedpan washers are built this way on hospital and long-term-care water closets.
4) Straight tube or bent tube bedpan washer diverter, which do I need?
The 6047800 is the straight vacuum breaker tube version. Pick it when the run from the diverter up to the vacuum breaker is clear and vertical behind the fixture. If the wall carrier, a closet or a soffit forces the tube to turn, you want the bent-tube version of the assembly instead, because forcing a straight tube into a tight chase puts stress on the coupling.
5) What is the American Standard 6047800 made of, and will it hold up in a hospital patient room?
Brass body construction, with a counter balanced pivot assembly on the diverter handle. The brass is what makes it suitable for the constant cycling a bedpan washer sees in a patient room, and the counter balanced pivot returns the diverter rather than leaving it hanging open between uses.
6) What finish and part number do I order for the American Standard bedpan washer diverter with straight tube?
Order it as American Standard 6047800.002. The .002 suffix is the chrome finish, and chrome is the only finish this diverter assembly is built in, so there is no finish decision to make on the order form.
7) Does the bedpan washer diverter need separate wall bracing, or is support included?
A wall support comes with the assembly, so you are not sourcing a bracket separately. You still need solid backing in the wall or chase to fasten that support to, which matters on a stud-and-drywall patient room wall where blocking has to go in before close-up.
