Device for controlling the filling of a sanitary tub

A sanitary installation assembly comprising:

• (a) a mixing valve in a water feed line, said mixing valve comprising
• (i) a valve block containing separate inlets for incoming streams of cold water and hot water;
• (ii) a mixed-water channel having a mixed-water outlet;
• and
• (iii) a plurality of valve chambers for rotary valves having rotating valve bodies;
• (b) an electronic controller coupled to the mixing valve for controlling flow rate and temperature of mixed water;
• (c) at least one data input and output device connected to the controller wherein said at least one data input and output device comprises a watertight foil keyboard and is designed in a form selected from the group consisting of a portable remote control device, a device adapted to be inserted in a ledge of a sanitary tub, and a device adapted to be installed on a plaster wall in a socket located beneath the wall plaster;
• (d) two rotary drives for actuating the rotary valves secured to an outer side of said valve block and electrically connected to the controller;
• and
• (e) at least one shut-off valve actuated by the controller coupled to the mixed-water outlet;
• wherein the cold water inlet has a first rotary valve arranged therein, the hot water inlet has a second rotary valve arranged therein, and first and second rotary valve drives are respectively associated with said first and second rotary valves,
• whereby the controller controls positions of the rotary valves to control the mixing ratio of the incoming streams of cold and hot water and water flow volume, said first and second rotary valve drives being controllable independently of each other.
