Frequently Asked Questions - Ozone TA6851 FRANKE

How do I install the Franke Ozone TA6851 faucet?

Installation requires a single 1-3/8 inch hole in the countertop. Follow the included manual: feed the hoses through the hole, secure the faucet with the mounting nut, connect the supply lines to shut-off valves, and attach the spray head. Tighten all connections by hand, then use a wrench for final 1/4 turn. Turn on water and check for leaks.

What is the ozone technology used for?

The ozone cleaning system generates ozone gas to sanitize the faucet surface and spray head. It helps eliminate bacteria and odors without chemicals. Activate it by pressing the ozone button on the spray head for 5 seconds; the system runs for 2 minutes.

How do I clean and maintain this faucet?

Wipe the faucet with a soft damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads. The ozone system reduces mineral buildup, but if needed, soak the aerator in vinegar to remove deposits. Periodically check the supply hoses for leaks.

The spray head is dripping – how can I fix it?

A dripping spray head often indicates a worn ceramic cartridge or loose O-ring. First, tighten the spray head connection. If still dripping, turn off water, disassemble the handle, and replace the cartridge (Franke part #TA6851-CAR). Ensure the O-ring is seated properly.

Can I install this faucet on a 3-hole sink?

Yes, the faucet comes with a deck plate that covers the extra holes. Simply place the plate over the sink holes, mount the faucet through the center hole, and secure it. The plate is compatible with standard 3-hole configurations up to 8 inches apart.

What is the flow rate and is it water-efficient?

The flow rate is 1.5 gallons per minute (5.7 L/min), meeting EPA WaterSense certification. This saves water without sacrificing performance. The two-spray function allows you to switch from aerated stream to a powerful spray for rinsing.

Does the ozone system require any special maintenance?

The ozone system is low-maintenance. Replace the ozone module (part #OZONE-MOD) every 2 years or after 500 cycles. The module is located under the sink; unscrew and swap it. The faucet will flash a red LED when replacement is needed.

What should I do if the handle becomes stiff or hard to move?

A stiff handle usually indicates a failing ceramic cartridge. Shut off water, remove the handle (set screw under the lever), unscrew the cartridge retaining nut, and replace the cartridge. Lubricate the new cartridge with silicone grease before installation.

Is the faucet compatible with a reverse osmosis system?

Yes, the faucet works with standard reverse osmosis systems. It has a dedicated 1/4-inch connection port on the base. You may need an additional adapter if your RO system uses a different fitting. Ensure the RO pressure does not exceed 60 PSI.

What is covered under the warranty?

Franke offers a limited lifetime warranty for the faucet body and finish, and a 5-year warranty on the cartridge and ozone module. It covers defects in materials and workmanship. Proof of purchase required. Not cover damage from improper installation or misuse.

PRE-INSTALLATION INFORMATION

BEFORE INSTALLATION AND SETTING TO WORK

Attention! The feeding pipes have to be rinsed thoroughly before the installation of the mixer, so that no shavings, welding or hemp residual or other dirt can be found in the pipes. Foreign bodies can enter the mixer through the rinsed pipes or the general water plant and could damage the washers/ring washers. In order to guarantee a long use of the product, install the angle valve equipped with filter and clean them regularly. Before the setting to work, unscrew the aerator and rinse it very well.

-Maximum working pressure 5 bar

- Recommended working pressure 3 bar (in case of water pressure higher than 5 bar it is recommended to install pressure reducers)

DIRECTIONS FOR ASSEMBLY, USE AND MAINTENANCE

Assembling instructions for the single-lever mixer (Fig 1-2-3)

Before inserting the single lever group in the hole of the sink, make sure that the base gasket is properly positioned in its seat and that the flexible hoses are well tightened to the body of the tap.

Place the single lever group in the hole of the sink, orienting the spout toward the sink tank. Insert the fixing kit with the indicated sequence, and respectively:

- the shaped gasket and flange in case the single lever group is installed on a sink having thickness of 3-4 cm; - the shaped gasket, the triangular plastic flange and the flange in case of a stainless steel sink having thickness of 1-2 mm.

Tighten the tie rod or threaded nut well. If the tap is a single-lever group with an extractable shower, connect the flexible hose to the outlet pipe, interposing the gasket. Fix the lead counterweight to the flexible hose at a distance of approximately 400 mm from the connection to the outlet pipe. Tighten the shower to the hose, interposing the gasket, and confirm that the hose can slide smoothly through the passage hole. Proceed to connect the flexible hoses to the plumbing.

Cartridge replacement (Fig 4)

Before carrying out this operation, make sure that the water supply is turned off.

Unscrew the fastening screw (A) using an Allen key, and remove the handle (B) from the cartridge (F). Lift the finishing ring nut (C) using the reference notch (as shown in the figure). Remove the indicator ring (D), unscrew the fixing ring nut (E), and take the cartridge (F) out from the mixer body (G). Put the new cartridge into the body, checking that the two centering pins enter into their respective seats and that the gaskets are well positioned.

PRE-INSTALLATION INFORMATION

PRE-INSTALLATION INFORMATION

	- Prolonged contact wit any substance, even scarcely aggressive, can cause external braid damage and subsequent flexible burst.
	- Before bending the hose please consider a straight part of 2 times the external diameter.
	- Maintain minimum bend radius (DN= nominal internal diameter): - DN6 = 25mm DN8 = 30mm DN10 = 35mm DN13 = 45mm
	- Hand-tighten connectors with gasket seal (nuts) as more as possible, then apply 1/4 turn using an appropriate wrench.
