American Standard 6540180.002 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the American Standard Monterrey 6540180 gooseneck faucet fit a standard 8-inch widespread three-hole sink?
Yes. The Monterrey 6540180 is an 8-inch widespread faucet, so it mounts on the common three-hole deck with handles 8 inches apart on center and the gooseneck spout in the center hole. The valve bodies come with 8-inch rigid copper connections joining them to the spout.
2) How much does the Monterrey gooseneck spout reach out over the basin, and does it swivel?
The gooseneck spout has a 5 inch (127 mm) reach and is field-convertible between rigid and swivel, so you can set it fixed over a single bowl or let it swing between bowls on a multi-station sink. No parts swap is needed, it converts in the field.
3) What supply connections do I need for the American Standard 6540180 faucet?
The inlet shanks are 1/2 inch (13 mm) male threaded with brass coupling nuts supplied, so it lands on standard 1/2 inch supply stops and risers. Nothing exotic on the rough-in, but plan for a plain supply tie-in under each valve body rather than flexible tailpieces built into the faucet.
4) Is this faucet suitable for a healthcare or school handwashing sink?
That is the use it is built for. The wrist blade handles let staff operate it with a forearm instead of a hand, they are vandal resistant, and the red and blue indicators mark hot and cold. The laminar flow control sits in the spout base with a plain spout end, meaning no aerator screen to trap debris.
5) What is the flow rate on the Monterrey wrist blade faucet, and does it hold steady with pressure swings?
It runs 1.5 gpm (5.7 Lpm) through a pressure-compensating flow regulator, so the output stays near that figure as building pressure varies across floors or as other fixtures draw.
6) Why a plain spout end with laminar flow instead of an aerator on this faucet?
Laminar flow control is moved back into the spout base and the spout end is left plain. That gives a clear non-aerated stream and removes the screened aerator tip at the outlet, which is the part maintenance normally has to pull and clean on a public washroom faucet.
7) Will these handles drip after heavy public use?
The Monterrey uses washerless ceramic disc valve cartridges in cast brass valve bodies, so there is no rubber washer to wear out and cause the slow drip you get from compression stems on high-traffic sinks.
8) What finish does the American Standard 6540180 come in, and what is the part number to order?
It is offered in chrome, ordered as American Standard part number 6540180.002. One finish, so any standardization across a building's washrooms will be on polished chrome.
