Chicago Faucets 240.738.AB.1
The Chicago Faucets 240.738.AB.1 is a genuine OEM HyTronic® Gooseneck Base Kit designed for touch-free, electronic water delivery. This kit provides the foundational housing for HyTronic gooseneck faucets and is designed for use with a pre-mixed water supply or a concealed mixing valve, as it does not include an external user temperature handle. Constructed with ECAST® lead-free brass, it utilizes "Above-Deck" electronics, housing the sensor and solenoid within the base for superior maintenance access. This modular base is compatible with various Chicago Faucets gooseneck spouts, making it a preferred choice for sterile environments like labs and hospitals.
Expert Insight:
The 240.738.AB.1 is the streamlined "no-touch" version of the HyTronic gooseneck system. Installation Tip: Because this base has no external mixer, you must install a thermostatic or mechanical mixing valve (like the 242.165.AB.1) underneath the sink to regulate the water temperature for the user. Pro Tip: This base is Bluetooth® enabled, allowing facility managers to use the Chicago Faucets Connect App to adjust sensor sensitivity or schedule hygiene flushes—essential for preventing bacteria growth in clinical settings. The "Above-Deck" design is its best feature; you can swap out the battery or access the solenoid in under two minutes without ever clearing out the cabinet under the sink.
