Sloan 150 ES-SM Optima ES-SM Concealed Surface Mount Flushometer - Manual (Page 3)

Transformer Installation
Install Transformer (EL-154) on a 2-Gang Electrical Box, 4" x 4" x 2-1/2"
(102 mm x 102 mm x 64 mm) in a convenient location; refer to the
illustration at upper right side of this page.
Note: One Sloan EL-154 transformer can operate up to ten OPTIMA
equipped Flushometers. Run 18-gauge wire from transformer to
Flushometer(s). Wire supplied by others. DO NOT supply power to
transformer until installation of Flushometer is complete.
Note: A maximum of ten (10) Flushometer units can operate from one (1)
Sloan EL-154 Transformer, Class 2, UL Listed, 50 VA (min.) at 24 VAC,
plate mounted.
Sensor Box Location
Failure to properly position the sensor to the plumbing rough-in will result
in improper installation and impair product performance. All tradesmen
(plumbers, electricians, tile setters, etc.) involved with the installation of this
product must coordinate their work to assure proper product installation.

Prior to installing the Sloan OPTIMA equipped Flushometer, install the items
listed below. Refer to Rough-ins on Page 2 and illustration on this page.
• 2-gang electrical box — 4" x 4" x 2-1/2" (102 mm x 102 mm x 64
mm) for transformer; see paragraph entitled “Transformer Installation”
(mount in a convenient location)
• Electrical wiring to the transformer box (120 VAC, 2 amp service
required for each EL-154, 24 VAC, 50 VA transformer used)
• Closet/urinal fixture
• Drain line
• Water supply line
Important:
• INSTALL ALL ELECTRICAL WIRING IN ACCORDANCE WITH
NATIONAL/LOCAL CODES AND REGULATIONS.
• INSTALL ALL PLUMBING IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE CODES
AND REGULATIONS.
• WATER SUPPLY LINES MUST BE SIZED TO PROVIDE AN ADEQUATE
VOLUME OF WATER FOR EACH FIXTURE.
• A 24 VAC STEP-DOWN TRANSFORMER MUST BE USED.
• USE APPROPRIATE PRECAUTIONS WHILE CONNECTING TRANSFORMER
TO 120 VAC POWER SOURCE.
• FLUSH ALL WATER LINES PRIOR TO MAKING CONNECTIONS.
Royal ® and Sloan ® Flushometers are designed to operate with 15 to 100
psi (104 to 689 kPa) of water pressure. THE MINIMUM PRESSURE
REQUIRED TO THE VALVE IS DETERMINED BY THE TYPE OF FIXTURE
SELECTED. Consult fixture manufacturer for minimum pressure
requirements.
Most Low Consumption water closets (1.6 gallon/6.0 liter) require a
minimum flowing pressure of 25 psi (172 kPa).
Protect the Chrome or Special finish of this Flushometer — DO NOT USE
TOOTHED TOOLS TO INSTALL OR SERVICE THE VALVE. Also, see "Care
and Cleaning" section of this manual.
IMPORTANT: EXCEPT FOR CONTROL STOP INLET, DO NOT USE PIPE
SEALANT OR PLUMBING GREASE ON ANY VALVE COMPONENT OR
COUPLING!
With the exception of Control Stop Inlet, DO NOT use pipe sealant or
plumbing grease on any valve component or coupling!
!!! IMPORTANT !!!
Protect the chrome or special finish of Sloan Flushometers —
DO NOT USE toothed tools to install or service these valves. Use
a Sloan A-50 Super-Wrench™, Sloan A-109 Plier Wrench or
smooth jawed spud wrench to secure all couplings. Also see
“Care and Cleaning” section of this manual.
!!! IMPORTANT !!!
This product contains mechanical and/or electrical components
that are subject to normal wear. These components should be
checked on a regular basis and replaced as needed to maintain
the valve’s performance.

Never open Control Stop to where the flow from the valve
exceeds the flow capability of the fixture. In the event of
a valve failure, the fixture must be able to accommodate a
continuous flow from the valve.
