American Standard Selectronic Gooseneck Touchless Faucet, Base Model, 0.35 gpm/1.3 Lpm - AMS-605B134

No. The power kit is sold separately on the 605B134 Selectronic gooseneck faucet, so budget for it on the order or the faucet will not run once it is mounted. Everything else about the faucet is self-contained: the sensor, the safety timer that shuts water off after 55 seconds, and the auto purge that periodically flushes stagnant water are all built in.

The Selectronic gooseneck faucet is a single-hole installation, so on a 3-hole deck you need the optional deck plate, which is offered for both 4-inch (102 mm) and 8-inch (203 mm) centers. The plate is a separate order item. If your sink is already drilled single-hole, mount it straight in.

No. It is a single inlet faucet, fed either cold or tempered water. If you need a blended temperature at the spout, the mixing has to happen upstream, typically with a thermostatic mixing valve feeding that one supply line. There is no mixing valve or temperature handle on the faucet itself.

The 605B134 delivers 0.35 gpm/1.3 Lpm through a pressure-compensating multi-laminar spray, which is a handwashing flow rate, not a fill rate. It is built for commercial use, so it suits restrooms in schools, offices, and public facilities where low consumption is the goal. If the sink is used for filling buckets or pots, this is the wrong fixture.

Sensor settings are programmed with an optional remote control, which is not included with the base model faucet. Without it you are running the factory defaults. Facilities standardizing on Selectronic across many fixtures usually buy one remote for the whole building rather than one per faucet.

It is built for that environment. The spout is vandal-resistant brass and the 0.35 gpm outlet is a vandal-resistant pressure-compensating spray, so neither the spout nor the aerator is easy to remove or defeat. Touchless operation also means there is no handle to snap off.

That is what the safety timer is for. The Selectronic sensor shuts the water off automatically after 55 seconds, so a faucet triggered by a rag on the deck or a jammed sensor will not run all night. Auto purge runs the opposite way, cycling water periodically so a fixture in a low-traffic restroom does not sit with stagnant water in the line.

The Selectronic gooseneck faucet measures 17.126 x 10.394 x 4.252 inches and weighs 3.902 pounds. The gooseneck shape is there to give clearance over deeper basins, which is why it gets specified on utility and kitchen-style sinks rather than a low-arc lavatory spout.

Chrome, ordered as part number 605B134.002. That is the only finish this base model gooseneck Selectronic is built in, which makes it straightforward to match across a run of restrooms where the rest of the trim is chrome.
