Abstract: In a sanitary fitting controlled in a non-contacting manner, the housing is divided several times: handle-like attachments (6, 7) are detachably connected on both sides to a main housing (1), which contains the channels carrying water. One of the two handle-like attachments (6) holds all the electronic components, in particular transmitter (9), receiver (10) and receiving electronics (11) and receives these electronic components at least partly in its cup-shaped housing (52). The other handle-like attachment (7) similarly holds all the mechanical components, in particular the electrically controlled valve (14, 29), and receives these mechanical components at least partly in its cup-shaped housing (18) (FIG. 3).
