A sanitary fitting () that contains a fitting body (), a first spray plate (), a second spray plate (), and a two-way valve (), which can be used to selectively route a liquid to the first spray plate () or to the second spray plate (), wherein the two-way valve () is arranged in the fitting body () and having a valve body (), which is mounted rotatably about an axis of rotation () in a valve housing () of the two-way valve () between a first valve seat () of a first outlet () of the two-way valve () and a second valve seat () of a second outlet () of the two-way valve ().

Sanitary fitting having a two-way valve

A liquid sensor, including: a) a housing; b) at least one sensor having at least two metallic contact surfaces for detecting a liquid; and c) a processing unit for processing sensor signals of the at least one sensor, a function of the liquid sensor being controllable by an actuation of at least one of the metallic contact surfaces. A method for controlling a function of a liquid sensor is also proposed.

Liquid sensor and method for controlling a function of a liquid sensor

A method for operating a sanitary fitting, and to a sanitary fitting. The sanitary fitting is equipped to deliver a water jet and has at least one manual actuator for manual regulation of at least one water jet flow rate or a water jet temperature, and a sensor arrangement that is equipped for sensor-controlled regulation of a predefined water jet flow rate and a predefined water jet temperature. The sensor arrangement is equipped to detect the presence of an object in an external detection area and a control unit is provided to distinguish whether the object detected first is a water jet or a different object.
