Jerich 488080 Thermostatic Cartridge Euro

Product Description

The JERICH 488080 is a thermostatic cartridge designed as a replacement for Brizo thermostatic valve bodies using a 20-point Euro-style interface with a Hole 2 configuration. Thermostatic cartridges regulate water temperature by blending hot and cold supply flows to maintain a consistent output temperature at the fixture. This cartridge seats inside the valve body and is the primary serviceable component when a thermostatic shower or tub valve loses temperature control or develops leakage. Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or experienced plumbing technician during a repair or valve rebuild.

This cartridge is suited for residential and light-commercial plumbing applications where a Brizo thermostatic valve requires cartridge replacement. The 20-point Euro spline and Hole 2 designation identify the specific rotational interface and port geometry required for correct fitment. Technicians should confirm the point count, hole position, and overall cartridge dimensions against the existing valve body before installation to ensure compatibility.

Key Features

• Thermostatic cartridge design maintains consistent mixed-water output temperature
• 20-point Euro spline interface for precise rotational indexing in the valve body
• Hole 2 port configuration matches specific Brizo thermostatic valve body geometry
• Serviceable replacement component for thermostatic shower and tub valves
• Designed to restore temperature-control function without full valve body replacement

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement thermostatic cartridge for Brizo thermostatic valve bodies with a 20-point Euro spline and Hole 2 port configuration. Confirm spline count, hole position, and cartridge dimensions against the existing valve body prior to installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off the water supply and relieve line pressure completely before removing the existing cartridge. Avoid forcing the cartridge into the valve body; confirm spline alignment and port orientation before seating. Do not use pipe sealant or thread compounds on cartridge sealing surfaces unless specified by the valve manufacturer.
