American Standard 6045SM101.002 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What rough-in does this touchless urinal flush valve need?
The Ultima 6045SM101 is an 11-1/2 inch (292 mm) rough-in valve, measured from the centerline of the supply to the spud connection. If your existing urinal carrier or supply stub is set at a different rough-in, it won't line up without adjusting the supply.
2) Is this urinal flush valve hardwired or battery powered?
Battery powered. Four C-size alkaline batteries ship with the valve, so no transformer, no conduit, and no electrical rough-in is needed at the fixture. That's the usual reason it gets specified on a retrofit where there's no power in the wall.
3) Can this flush valve be mounted with the supply coming in from the left?
Yes. The Ultima urinal flush valve installs left- or right-handed, so one part number covers both supply orientations in a run of stalls. The sensor is side-mounted on the gear operator.
4) How much water does the American Standard Ultima 6045SM101 use per flush?
1.0 gallon per flush (3.8 Lpf). That's the standard federal maximum for urinals rather than a high-efficiency or pint rating, so if your water-conservation spec calls for 0.5 gpf or 0.125 gpf, you need a different valve.
5) Can someone flush it manually if the sensor doesn't pick them up?
There's an electronically operated override button on the valve, so a user or a maintenance tech can trigger a flush by hand without waiting on the sensor. It's an electronic override, not a mechanical handle, so it still depends on battery power.
6) What keeps a sensor urinal valve from running on constantly?
This one uses American Standard's DynaClean design: an integral wiper spring scrubs the refill orifice on every flush. A clogged refill orifice is the usual cause of run-on and of a valve that won't shut off, and the self-cleaning spring is there to keep that orifice clear in hard or dirty water.
7) Is this a piston or a diaphragm flush valve, and does that matter for maintenance?
The Ultima 6045SM101 is a piston-type valve. Piston units use a cup and seal assembly rather than a rubber diaphragm, so if your facility already stocks diaphragm repair kits for the rest of the building, they won't service this one. Standardizing a floor on one style keeps the parts cart simple.
8) What finish does the American Standard Ultima touchless urinal valve come in?
Polished chrome, ordered as 6045SM101.002. It's the single finish offered, which is typical for commercial restroom exposed valves and matches most existing chrome supply stops and spud couplings in a facility.
9) Is this valve suitable for a high-traffic commercial restroom or is it a residential part?
It's a commercial-duty valve, catalogued for commercial installations rather than residential use, which is where touchless urinal valves normally land: schools, airports, stadiums, healthcare. The hands-free operation is the reason facilities specify it, since nobody touches the valve to flush it.
