Geberit Series 383 Side Feed Mechanism

The Geberit series 383 side feed mechanism (reference 281.000.00.5) is designed to provide an efficient and quiet solution for exposed cistern installations. This model is equipped with a 3/8" side supply connection, making it ideal for a wide range of applications in both potable water systems and greywater (rainwater) treatment when using an appropriate filtering system.

This mechanism is optimized to work with ceramic cisterns, ensuring reliable and efficient performance. Regarding its applicability, it is especially suitable for installations requiring a dynamic pressure between 0.1 and 10 bar, allowing versatile adaptation to different pressure conditions in the water supply network.

One of the standout features of this mechanism is its adjustable fill height, which allows for flexible installation, adapting to various cistern configurations and ensuring personalized performance in each project. Its brass threaded connection guarantees durability and corrosion resistance, ensuring a long product life and reliable sealing.

In terms of sound level, this mechanism meets the strict requirements of the faucet class I (DIN 4109), making it especially suitable for environments that require low noise levels during operation. With a faucet sound level at 3 bar of 7 dB(A) and at 5 bar of 13 dB(A), this mechanism ensures virtually silent operation, enhancing comfort and quality of the environment in any installation.

With a maximum water temperature of 25 °C and a storage temperature range of up to 40 °C, the Geberit side feed mechanism is designed to offer optimal performance under standard operating conditions. Additionally, the water flow is efficient, with a flow rate of 0.06 l/s at 0.5 bar and 0.16 l/s at 3 bar, ensuring adequate supply according to the needs of each installation.

This product is suitable for potable water installations, but it can also be used for greywater as long as an appropriate filtering system is installed, allowing its versatility in residential and commercial applications.
