American Standard 6045SM013.002 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does this touchless urinal flush valve need to be wired for power?
No hardwiring. The Ultima sensor valve runs on batteries and ships with four C-size alkaline cells, so there's no transformer, no conduit, and no electrician needed on the retrofit. That's the usual reason property managers pick a battery sensor valve over a hardwired one when converting a manual handle valve in an existing restroom.
2) How much water does the 0.125 gpf Ultima urinal valve use per flush, and will it work on an older urinal fixture?
It flushes at 0.125 gpf (0.5 Lpf), a pint per flush. That's a high-efficiency rate, and it only performs correctly on a urinal fixture rated for pint flushing. Dropping a 0.125 gpf valve onto an older 1.0 or 1.5 gallon washdown urinal will typically leave the trapway under-rinsed, so match the valve rate to the fixture rating.
3) Can this sensor urinal valve be installed where the supply comes in on the left side?
Yes, it installs left- or right-handed, so a single part number covers stalls piped either direction. The sensor is a side-mount unit driving a gear operator, which is what allows the valve body to be oriented to either supply side.
4) What happens if the sensor doesn't pick someone up, or the batteries die mid-flush?
There's an electronically operated override button on the valve so a user or maintenance tech can flush manually. Note that it is an electronic override, not a mechanical handle, so it depends on the batteries having charge. For facilities that want a purely mechanical backup, a manual handle piston valve is the type to spec instead.
5) Piston-type or diaphragm flush valve for a high-traffic restroom?
This one is a piston-type valve. Pistons hold up better where water quality is poor or debris is an issue, since there's no flexible diaphragm to foul. American Standard also adds DynaClean self-cleaning wiper spring technology here: an integral wiper spring scrubs the refill orifice on every flush, which is the usual cure for valve run-on caused by a clogged bypass. Diaphragm valves are the alternative and are generally simpler to rebuild.
6) Is the Ultima 6045SM013 rated for commercial restrooms or is it a residential valve?
It's catalogued as a commercial product and belongs to American Standard's piston flush valve family. Battery sensor operation plus the self-cleaning wiper spring is aimed at schools, offices, stadiums, and other high-use public restrooms rather than homes.
7) What finish does the 6045SM013 urinal flush valve come in?
Chrome, under MPN 6045SM013.002. It's the single configuration offered, so there's no polished brass or brushed nickel variant to select when you're matching other trim in the restroom.
