A thermostatic mixing device comprising two entry conduits (C, F) for hot and cold water, a mixing chamber (6), passages (7, 8) between the entry conduits and the mixing chamber, an outflow conduit (E) for mixed water, a thermostatic element (18) in contact with the mixed water, and a distribution cartridge (13) activated by the thermostatic element and arranged as to control the size of the passages between the two entry conduits and the mixing chamber to keep the temperature of the mixed water substantially constant, in which both the entry conduits for the hot and cold water and the outflow conduit for the mixed water are in the form of a central body disposed inside the cartridge. The outflow conduit is central and contains the thermostatic element, while the two entry conduits are arranged alongside the outflow conduit and empty into two ring-shaped chambers arranged along the axis of the device with which cooperates the cartridge to accomplish regulation. The device can be combined with flow control means to provide a thermostatic mixing faucet.
