American Standard 6047860.002 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does the bedpan washer on the American Standard Ultima 6047860 flush valve actually do in a patient room?
It gives a healthcare toilet a second job. The straight bedpan washer diverter assembly diverts water from the flush valve to a spray hose so staff can rinse a bedpan at the fixture, and the counter balanced pivot assembly holds the diverter arm in position. Between uses the valve works as a normal piston-type manual flush valve on the water closet at 1.6 gpf/6.0 Lpf.
2) What comes in the box with the Ultima bedpan washer flush valve, and what else do I need to order?
The 6047860 ships with the stop valve, sweat solder assembly, wall support, and a 1-1/2 inch (38 mm) spud coupling and flange, so the supply connection and the fixture connection are both covered. Plan on the bowl itself and any escutcheon or rough-in work not listed here. Note the sweat solder inlet: you are soldering to copper, not threading on, so size and prep the supply accordingly.
3) Will this flush valve fit a toilet with a 1-1/2 inch top spud?
Yes. The Ultima 6047860 comes with a 1-1/2 inch (38 mm) spud coupling and flange, which is the standard water closet spud size on commercial floor and wall hung bowls. If your fixture has a 1-1/4 inch urinal spud, this is not the valve for it.
4) Is the American Standard Ultima 6047860 a manual valve or a sensor flush valve?
Manual. It is a hand-operated piston-type valve, so there is no sensor, no battery, and no transformer to maintain. For a bedpan washer station that is usually what is wanted, since the diverter is operated by hand anyway.
5) What is the difference between the straight tube and an angled bedpan washer flush valve?
The straight tube version, which is what the 6047860 is, runs the diverter tube straight off the valve body. It is the choice when the bowl and the wall geometry let the spray assembly hang plumb; an angled tube is used where the tube has to clear an obstruction or reach at an offset. Everything else about the valve, the 1.6 gpf manual piston operation and the 1-1/2 inch spud, is the same.
6) Does the Ultima 6047860 meet the 1.6 gallon per flush water closet requirement?
It flushes at 1.6 gpf (6.0 Lpf), the standard commercial water closet volume, so it drops into a spec calling for a 1.6 gallon manual valve. It is not a 1.28 gpf high-efficiency valve, so do not use it where the fixture or the project requires 1.28.
7) Is this flush valve rugged enough for a hospital or nursing home with constant use?
It is built in brass throughout, which is what holds up in high-traffic institutional restrooms and patient rooms. The piston operating mechanism and the counter balanced pivot on the diverter are the two wear points to keep rebuild parts on hand for when you standardize a floor on these.
