Abstract
A sanitary valve contains an inlet for cold water, an inlet for hot water and two outlets for mixed water. The valve contains a thermostat, which determines the mixed water temperature. For controlling the mixed water quantity leaving the valve a disk control is provided, which simultaneously forms a changeover device between the two outlets. For changeover purposes use is made of the actuator with which the quantity control is also implemented. On turning from the closed position in one direction one outlet is opened, whereas on turning in the opposite direction the other outlet is opened.
