Why use touchless faucets?

Touchless faucets usually have sensors in them that are located on the base or at the tip of the sensor. This sensor had designed in a way that you need to place your hands beneath it, and it will automatically turn on and off.
2- Solenoid valve
Sensor faucets typically have a solenoid diaphragm valve. These valves imply a magnetic pull or push on the faucet. This valve usually closed-ended, but as the valve gets pulled, it signals the sensor and the water flows.

Almost all the faucets have a power source in them. However, the power source in all these faucets is different. Some use dry batteries while others take a low volt current from the AC transformers. Sensors obtain power from electricity, and this electricity also powers the water valve. Faucets that have transformer as a power source hold continuous current while battery-based faucets pass the current when they are turned on.

A spout in a touchless faucet usually contains all its working parts. Spouts are built of zinc and sometimes of brass. They control the working of all the elements in a faucet.
