An electric motor has an internal stator () and an external rotor (). The external rotor () has a rotor housing () and a plurality of magnets () mounted therein and is adapted to rotate around a rotation axis (); the magnets () are preferably bar magnets; the rotor housing () has an inner surface (), a first end (), and a second end () located opposite the first end () and the inner surface defines respective receiving surfaces () for reception of the magnets. each receiving surface features a channel depression () to receive a magnet (). The magnets () are each fastened on a respective one of the receiving surfaces () with the aid of an adhesive mounting agent (). A first bearing seat () for reception of a first bearing cage () is formed at the second end () of the rotor housing ().

A mixer cartridge contains a plate-type control system, the control plate of which is displaceable and twistable by an actuating element configured as a double-armed lever. The displacement leads to an opening and closing of the valve, while the twisting serves to alter the temperature. According to the invention, it is envisioned that the maximum opening and closing position of a holding plate controlling the movable control plate is limited by stops. For the actuating element, a stop is also provided, which acts in the same way, yet is arranged such that it still has a minimum distance from the actuating element when the holding plate is already bearing against the stop.

A temperature-controlled mixer valve contains a disk control for determining the quantity of mixed water flowing out of the valve. To the disk control is connected a regulating unit, which determines the mixed water temperature. The control disk is movable with respect to the fixed distributor disk in a first degree of freedom for determining the mixed water quantity. By control disk movement in a second degree of freedom, the desired temperature of the thermostatic valve is modified.
