ring magnets 104 106 are disposed proximate and surrounding the actuators 30 32 within actuator tubes 42 44 respectively for magnet engagement therewith and for moving the actuator tubes 42 44 between a first position shown in solid line stopping water flow through the valves 12 14 and a second position shown in fig3 allowing water to flow through the valves 12 14 as shown in fig3 the spring 36 maintains the actuator 30 in an 34 off 34 position when the ring magnet 106 is in the first position movement of the ring magnets 104 106 in the direction of arrows 114 116 causes sufficient coupling between the magnets 104 106 and the actuators 30 to move the actuators 30 in the direction of the arrow 118 and against the action of spring 36 to open the respective valves 12 14 each of the ring magnets 104 106 is held in position by arms 122 124 respectively which are pivotally mounted to the plate 24 by means of pins 126 128 through pivot mounts 134 136 respectively screws 138 may be used to secure the magnets 104 106 to the arms 122 124 a bodin or bicycle type cable 140 includes a proximal end 144 including a slidable wire 148 and a sheath 150 fixed to a bracket 152 attached to the valve housings 18 20 through the plate 24 because the sheath is fixed to the valve housing the slidable wire 148 is movable with respect thereto which enables the valve housing 18 20 to 34 float 34 while being attached to the hot and cold water sources 64 66 and hot and cold water inlets 90 92 by means of the flex lines 48 50 72 74 a.
