American Standard's bedpan washer diverter for flush valves can effectively operate with as little as 1.28 gallons of water per flush, when combined with a high efficiency American Standard piston-operated flush valve.

The bedpan washer works by diverting a portion of the flush valve's water volume to the spray head. The flow of water begins when the arm is rotated approximately 60 degrees from vertical. A counter-balanced pivot assembly ensures the spray arm stays in position when the user lets go.

Designed for installation on 1 ½-inch top spud flushometer bowls, the diverter is available with either a straight flush tube or an offset model that can accommodate grab bars installed above the toilet. Sold individually or as part of a manual flush valve kit.
