The stationary valve disk is adjacent to a base of the housing and has at least one channel for water intake with a recess on the side of the stationary valve disk facing the base. This recess is coaxial with a passage in the base of the housing and accommodates a sealing ring which is also lodged in the passage. A rim is formed on the surface of the base which faces the stationary valve disk whereby the rim encircles the passage and extends into the recess of the stationary valve disk.
