Touchless technology

- Reduce up to 80% of transmitted bacteria*
- Possibility to schedule hygienic flushing flexibly with an app can prevent formation of dangerous bacteria such as legionella.

Automatic flush scheduling
Oras touchless faucets with Bluetooth can be controlled via Oras 360 App, which enables to set-up automatic flushing at set intervals:
- Create a weekly or daily automatic flushing schedule - no need for manual rinsing of the pipes
- No more stagnant water
- Reduce the bacteria to grow in the pipes
Thermal disinfection
Many of our faucet models (such as Oras Clinica) feature thermal disinfection flush:
- Enables hot water at maximum temperature to run through the piping
- Reduced risk for bacteria spread (e.g. legionella) and water contamination
- Can be easily activated with a provided tool
Laminar water flow
Oras faucet designed for hospitals and clinics have laminar flow as a standard feature.
No risk of turbulence - which prevents airborne germs to get mixed with the water jet
Low aerosol jet e.g. of Oras Medipro minimizes the spread of e.g. legionella bacteria - and protects human health in the long term.
2. Maximum safety in challenging environments
Oras Protec for the purest drinking water
Our faucets with Oras Protec are made with nickel-free waterways and contain less than 0.3% lead, for the highest quality water. To further improve purity and reduce the propagation of biofilms, all plastic materials in contact with water are KTW BWGL-approved.
Antiscalding protection
In patients rooms, examination areas and nurseries, scalding incidents can be a common occurrence. Our intelligent thermostats are designed to prevent any such burn injuries. Every standard faucet can be upgraded to deliver water at safe, preset temperatures by using the Oras Minimat corner valve thermostat.
- If cold water stops flowing for any reason, our thermostats will block hot water output
- A built-in hot water stop prevents the temperature from being set above 38°C
- To actively change the maximum temperature, you will need to press a special button
