Lavatory system with hands free operation

摘要

A lavatory system (10) having at least one wash station and at least one electrically operated fixture (14) is disclosed. The lavatory system includes a control system (50) for operating the at least one electrically operated fixture and a power supply system (100) for powering the at least one electrically operated fixture. According to one embodiment, the power supply system includes a plurality of power sources and a switch device (680). The plurality of power sources are electrically coupled to each other and configured to provide an output voltage for powering the at least one fixture, The electrical coupling of the power sources is selectively adjustable between a first arrangement in which the power sources are electrically coupled to each other in parallel and a second arrangement in which the power sources are electrically coupled to each other in series. The switch device is configured to adjust the said electrical coupling of the power sources between the first arrangement and the second arrangement.
