Automatic Water Mixer ARES MONOLITH

The Automatic Water Mixer ARES MONOLITH is a specialised commercial water temperature regulator designed for professional kitchen washing stations and pots for high-intensity daily use. BHS supplies ARES MONOLITH automatic mixers to HoReCa establishments.

How the automatic water mixer works

The ARES MONOLITH automatic water mixer uses a thermostatic or electronic control mechanism that precisely blends the supply of hot and cold water to a pre-programmed temperature. The temperature is maintained consistently even if water pressure or supply temperature in the building changes – the device automatically adjusts the mixing ratio to keep the output water temperature constant. Automatic operation means that kitchen staff do not have to manually adjust the temperature of the tap or shower each time, and the process is reproducible across any shift. Electrically controlled automatic mixer models may offer programming based on time or type of task.

When an automatic mixer is necessary

The Automatic Water Mixer ARES MONOLITH is essential if a commercial kitchen washing station has a high throughput – many batches of dishes or equipment in a single shift – and manual temperature adjustment would slow down operations. In intensively used kitchen washing stations, manual mixers often result in situations where an operator adjusts the temperature and forgets to reset it, leading either to hot water wastage or reduced washing efficiency. The automatic solution completely eliminates this issue. In catering businesses and food processing, where HACCP requires water temperature documentation, an automatic mixer with a fixed setting provides simpler compliance assurance.

Hygiene and HACCP requirements

Within HACCP frameworks, washing and disinfection processes in food processing areas have specific precise water temperature requirements. For manual dishwashing, the hot water temperature must reach at least +49°C, and for the disinfection phase – +77°C or higher depending on the method used. The Automatic Water Mixer ARES MONOLITH ensures that the correct temperature is achieved every time without human error – the operator simply turns on the water and receives water at the precise temperature. Such a system simplifies the management of HACCP documentation, as the temperature setting is fixed and measurable. MONOLITH mixers designed for kitchen showers and washing equipment are also constructed from materials adapted for sanitary and chemical resistance.

HoReCa applications

In a restaurant kitchen, the Automatic Water Mixer ARES MONOLITH is installed at the main washing sink or pots, where equipment, pots and dishes are washed daily. In a hotel’s commercial kitchen with a large volume of dishes, the automatic mixer speeds up the washing rhythm – each water draw cycle starts with the correct temperature without waiting or adjustment. In catering businesses, where sanitary inspectors check compliance with water temperature requirements, an automatic mixer with a fixed setting also simplifies documentation. In large-volume kitchens where multiple dishwashers work during a shift, the automatic mixer prevents disagreements over temperature settings.

Frequently asked questions

What is the maximum flow rate of the ARES MONOLITH automatic mixer? The flow rate (l/min) depends on the specific model and installation parameters. For precise technical data, including maximum flow and pressure requirements, please consult BHS consultants.

Is the ARES MONOLITH mixer compatible with existing hot and cold water inlets? MONOLITH mixers are typically installed on a standard dual-inlet connection for hot and cold water. To clarify specific installation requirements and compatibility, contact BHS consultants.
