Tempress II Pressure Balance Cartridge
Sigma 18.30.067
Proven Pressure Balance Cartridge
The Tempress II pressure balancing cartridge is engineered for use in tub and shower systems to maintain a consistent water temperature despite fluctuations in water pressure. The pressure balancing cartridge compensates for pressure fluctuations in the supply system through a diaphragm connected pressure balancing mechanism.
Engineered for Performance, Safety, and Reliability
Responsive
The outlet temperature will change by no more than a mere Β±2 Β°F (1 Β°C) with a 50% drop in either the hot or cold water pressure.
Cross Flow Prevention
The built-in check valves prevent cross flow between the hot and cold supplies.
Enhanced Safety
If cold water pressure fails completely, the anti-scald design will reduce the flow rate to a safe level ensuring reliable protection against scalding.
Long Lifespan
Provide satisfactory performance with long service life up to 25 years.
Genuine OEM
Genuine Tempress II pressure balance cartridge made in Canada.
Universal Replacement
