When you put your hand in the faucet, the sensor sends a signal to the pump and opens the solenoid valve to let the disinfectant water flow out. When you take your hand out of the faucet, both the pump and the solenoid valve turn off at the same time, so there is no water dripping from the faucet, saving hand sanitizer.
