How a Sensor Faucet Works

07 | Sep 2022

A sensor faucet works by using a proximity sensor to open or close the valve when a user approaches. The valve then closes when the hands are no longer detected. This is a great way to save money on water costs by not having to manually turn the faucet on and off. Sensor faucets are available in many different styles and are ideal for any bathroom.

Sensor faucets work by using a small amount of electricity known as capacitance. This electrical charge is present in human body's tissues, and is measured in Farads. A sensor detects this difference and turns the water on or off accordingly. If the capacitance falls below a certain level, the sensor will close the water flow.

The sensor faucet market is projected to grow over the coming years, driven by the smart buildings concept. However, the sensors are expensive and require tedious installation and maintenance. These factors could hamper the growth of the sensor faucet market in the forecast period. However, the growing need for automated solutions is predicted to further drive the growth of the sensor faucet market.

Despite the high cost of sensor faucets, there are many benefits to installing this technology in commercial washrooms. This technology eliminates the need to open and close the tap, and ensures a constant temperature and flow rate. While they can be expensive to install, they can save money in the long run in water bills and on utility bills.
