Zenith Accessible Remote
Description

The Zenith Accessible Remote is purpose-designed to support independent and safe access to drinking water. The intuitive panel features a large activation area, that simplifies dispensing of instant boiling or chilled water. 

A dedicated boiling water safety lock helps prevent accidental dispensing, while the Braille and colours improve visibility and usability. 

Flexible installation options allow the remote to be positioned for optimal reach and comfort. Compatible with Zenith HydroTap G5 Commercial Boiling & Chilled (BC) models or Boiling, Chilled & Sparkling model (BCS)

Key Features
  • Braille: uses standard, un-contracted Braille to improve readability for a wider proportion of vision impaired users. 
  • Large, high contrast buttons: assist users with reduced hand control, tremors, limited dexterity, or to operate the remote using an elbow rather than fingers. 
  • Bright colours and clearly printed words, rather than iconography alone, improve recognition for users with low vision or cognitive accessibility needs.

  • A dedicated safety lock button minimises unintended boiling water activation. 
  • Buttons are tuned to require deliberate pressure, preventing activation through accidental contact.
