the acquaviva collection

Geometric proportions and cutting-edge technology. The new Acquaviva

collection celebrates sixty years of innovation, making the most of

modern captivating styling, with lines that are neat and well-balanced

in every detail and from all points of view. It uses the best available

technology, starting with the adoption of the Nobili Widd® 28 cartridge

with its mere 28 mm diameter, the most advanced technological

expression in the sector, and so small. It uses the production quality

of the Suno factory, where the entire collection comes to life, one

component at a time, in futuristic and eco-friendly workshops. It respects

the environment, adopting solutions capable of reducing consumptions,

reducing management costs and saving the planet. The Acquaviva

collection, happy birthday Nobili.

ORDER AND EQUILIBRIUM.

ABSOLUTE TECHNOLOGY.

SIXTY YEARS OF INNOVATION

To mark its sixtieth birthday, Nobili refuses to resort to half measures and treats itself to a brand new unmistakable collection. The simultaneous appeal of a fresh

and modern line is wrapped in an intense technological tradition forever present in the DNA of the brand: the innovation of the Nobili Widd® 28 cartridge is

reflected in the everyday use of the mixer, that of saving water and energy.

Pure style and harmony of form: the Acquaviva collection is available in four washbasin versions, (traditional mixer tap, wash bowl version or wall-mounted with

150 mm or 200 mm spout), bidet, bath, external shower and flush-fit shower versions and two sink versions. The adoption of the mere 28 millimetre diameter

Nobili Widd® 28 immersion cartridge combines a greatly reduced cross-section with incredibly clean lines, and a tall outlet spout flush with the mixer body.

THE HEART OF THE ACQUAVIVA MIXER

The Acquaviva collection has its own technological jewel, the only one of its kind in the world: the extraordinary Nobili Widd® 28 Water Immersion Dry Disc

cartridge, designed and produced entirely in our own factories, the only cartridge capable of incorporating so many technological details in just 28 millimetres

diameter. Technologies that guarantee unequalled reliability and very environmentally friendly use.

The Nobili Widd® 28 immersion cartridge allows reliability levels to be

reached that were unimaginable up until now (torsional strength 18 Nxm,

high pressure resistance to over 70 Bar). The water reaches the top of the

mixer body flowing around the profile of the cartridge, thus drastically

reducing mechanical wear: there are no internal limescale deposits and

no grease is washed away. In this way, the lubrication of the plates remains

unaltered and, furthermore, the low friction clutch system of the ceramic

discs ensures an incredibly smooth movement of the lever. The dynamic

flow regulator, maximum flow control, temperature limiter and the use of

food-grade materials guarantee total respect for the environment.

THE TECHNOLOGY

The technological efficiency and pure style of the Acquaviva collection are the result of the extremely high-tech heart with which it is fitted: use of the Nobili

Widd® 28 cartridge, the only one in the world capable of housing so many innovations in just 28 millimetres diameter, signifies being able to design elegant and

minimalist forms and at the same time reach the highest possible levels of eco-sustainability.

Maximum flow control

The Nobili Blockade technology allows the user to

decide on the maximum flow that the mixer tap

can output. Once the maximum flow has been

selected, simply place the corresponding insert in

the cartridge.

Dynamic flow regulator

The Nobili WaterSaving technology halves the

consumption of water by applying a brake to the

opening action of the lever at the half flow position

(-50%). Once this slight resistance has been overcome,

the mixer is free to output all the flow available.

Temperature limiter

Nobili EcoFresh technology prevents risks of

scalding and at the same time reduces the

consumption of hot water: the maximum

temperature of the water output from the mixer

can be varied by rotating a ring nut on the cartridge.

Fluid movements

The low friction of the clutch type ceramic discs

avoids friction between the plates when the

mixer lever is turned to the closed position, thus

reducing wear of the plates and guaranteeing the

soft fluid movement of the lever.

A brilliant finish

The gleaming polished finish is guaranteed by

chrome plating values higher than the market

standard: 15.0 μm of Nickel and 0.5 μm of Chrome.

All the processes are carried out at our own factories

in full compliance with environmental standards.

Support flange

The flange type support supplied with all our

kitchen mixer taps extends the bearing area

over the sink top and greatly increases stability,

reducing any oscillation in particularly thin

mounting surfaces.

Non-twist plastic hose

The ideal component to provide that extra touch

of perfection to the bathroom setting: the special

metal-effect finish enhances the tap system,

while the smooth surface prevents the annoying

twisting typical of traditional hoses.

Parigi® Parinox® Softpex® hoses

The first flexible pipe approved anywhere in the

world, thanks to its superior internal hygiene

properties, its optimum resistance to temperature

and pressure and its improved flexibility compared

to pipes in traditional PE-X.

Neoperl® Cascade® aerator

A perfect flow of water in minimalist style: the

Neoperl® Cascade® concealed aerator fitted to

the Acquaviva collection supplies the ideal mix

of air and water, increasing the jet pressure while

reducing the amount of water output.
