The AutoFaucet with Surround Sensor Technology, the latest offering from Technical Concepts, activates as soon as hands come within a few inches above, below or along the sides of the spout.
The AutoFaucet with SST uses capacitive sensors instead of an infrared beam and is powered by standard alkaline batteries, which last up to three years. The faucet uses some of the same Radius Touch-Free Technology components found in other automated restroom products developed by the company, including its AutoFlush for toilets and urinals, and OneShot soap dispenser.
