PRODUCT FEATURES
The curved handle and sleek spout of the Lahara® Bath Collection make a lasting impression. Touch it on. Touch it off. Or go completely hands-free. Delta® Touch2O® with Touchless Technology helps keep your bathroom clean by giving you three ways to operate your faucet: manually with the handle, with a simple touch anywhere on the spout or handle, or by placing your hands near the faucet. The high-tech capacitance sensing capabilities of Touchless faucets allow the flow of water to be activated by breaking the capacitance field anywhere around the device, unlike traditional hands-free infrared sensors which require your hands be in a particular place and are sensitive to lighting conditions and clothing and skin color. WaterSense® labeled faucets use at least 20% less water than the industry standard — helping you save water without compromising performance. You can install with confidence, knowing that this faucet is backed by Delta Faucet's Lifetime Limited Warranty on non-electronic parts and finishes and 5-Year Limited Warranty on electronic parts.
  • Operate hands-free by placing your hands near the faucet, with just a touch anywhere on the spout or handle, or manually using the handle
  • Helps keep your faucet cleaner, because washing the mess off your hands shouldn't involve making a mess of your faucet
  • Automatic water flow shut-off after two minutes helps conserve water
  • Integrated TempSense® LED light shows water temperature, changing from blue to magenta to red as temperature increases
  • Batteries last approximately 1 year if using AA batteries or 3 years if using C batteries, based on 20 minutes of usage per day
  • Optional A/C adapter EP102157 may be ordered separately
  • Diamond Seal® Technology is less hassle to install and helps your faucet perform like new for life, reducing leak points and lasting twice as long as the industry standard
  • Everything you need is together in one convenient box, including integrated InnoFlex® PEX supply lines
  • Fits 1 or 3-hole 4-inch installations (with included 6-1/2 inch deck plate)
  • Optional red/blue temperature indicator ring included
  • Metal push pop-up drain assembly in matching finish (included) is ADA compliant and simple to install, operate and clean
  • ADA Compliant
  • WaterSense® labeled faucet uses at least 20% less water than the industry standard without compromising performance
  • Rigid spout does not swivel
  • Backed by Delta Faucet's Lifetime Limited Warranty on non-electronic parts and finishes and 5-Year Limited Warranty on electronic parts

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Battery Drain Since installation by qualified plumber this fixture has consumed batteries at fast pace. On average the 6 AAA alkaline batteries are drained every 30 days or so, leaving my faucet inoperable unless I have another 6 fresh batteries on hand.
Date published: 2026-02-03
Rated 1 out of 5 by from Good When It Worked Good when it worked, but stopped after only three months. Have done all the recommended steps in the troubleshooting videos, but the faucet still will not turn on. Likely the solenoid assembly went bad which concerns me being that it's still fairly new.
Date published: 2024-12-05
Rated 1 out of 5 by from Wrong Piece In Packaging Twice Delta has now sent two faucets where the motion sensor is SQUARE and not ROUND. The square motion sensor doesn't fit with the ROUND faucet. I have replaced the square part with a round one via the help center but that part does not FIT around the base of the faucet. The part is found in the bag marked X00108157. The replacement part is RP64168 and that still didn't fit. 2 faucets, 1 replacement part, 3 weeks later and no working faucet. Going with a different brand to avoid this headache.

manual function

Can this faucet turn on manually. I am considering purchasing it for my mom's bathroom. She has Alzheimer's and I want to make sure she does not leave the faucet running all day.
Asked by: Delta fan
Hi Delta Fan, Thank you for your question. You can place the model 538T-RB-DST in manual mode by turning the faucet on and with the water running disconnect the battery pack. If the faucet is left on in the Touch mode it will only run for 1 minute with no activity before shutting itself off. Thanks, Dave
