Abstract (en)

[origin: CA2835602A1] The invention relates to a sanitary fitting comprising a fitting housing and an electrical control unit for controlling the water flow through at least one water conduit, the control unit comprising at least a first control element, in particular an electrically actuatable flow valve, for closing and opening the water conduit, wherein the fitting housing is to be arranged at an installation site, particularly a wall, an installation platform and/or a sanitary body such as a water basin, a bathtub or the like. The aim of the invention is to provide a sanitary fitting that can be serviced or repaired at particularly little expense, even in applications in which the requirements with regard to vandalism are of significant importance. Said aim is achieved according to the invention in that the fitting housing comprises at least one sanitary base body that can be solidly fixed to the installation site and a mounting cover that can be detached from the sanitary base body and covers a housing opening for opening the fitting housing for maintenance and/or service purposes. Also, at least one shut-off device comprising a second control element is provided inside the sanitary base body for shutting off the water conduit.
