Abstract

A device is provided for controlling the feed of mixed cold and hot water and the temperature of the mixed water in a sanitary installation, in particular for controlling the filling of a sanitary tub. The device comprises a mixing valve located in the water feed line, and an electronic controlling device associated with the mixing valve. The electronic controlling device comprises interfaces for connecting at least one data input and output device, a temperature sensor and a system for detecting the filling level in the tub. The mixing valve comprises a valve block containing separate inlets for cold and hot water, and a channel for mixed water with a mixed-water outlet, and valve chambers for rotary valves with rotating valve bodies. Two rotary valve drives connected to the controlling device are secured on the outer side of the valve block. The mixing ratio of the incoming flow of cold and hot water, as well as the total volume of the flow of water can be controlled by the setting movement of the rotary valves controlled by the electronic controlling device. In addition, at least one shutoff valve that can be actuated by the controlling device is associated with the mixed-water outlet.
