    Abstract: A valve (1) for a sanitary faucet, comprising: a liquid duct (2) having at least one inlet (3) and at least one outlet (4) for a liquid; a diaphragm valve (5) having a diaphragm (6) and a counterpressure chamber (7) connected to the at least one inlet (3); and a control rod (8) for controlling the diaphragm valve (5), wherein a push button (9) can be used to adjust the control rod (8) between a closed position, in which the diaphragm valve (5) is closed, and an open position (10), in which the diaphragm valve (5) is at least partially open, wherein a rotary handle (11) can be used to adjust the control rod (8) in the open position (10) between a minimum flow position (12), in which a minimum flow rate of the liquid flows through the at least one outlet (4), and a maximum flow position (13), in which a maximum flow rate of the liquid flows through the at least one outlet (4), and wherein the minimum flow position (12) of the control rod (8) can be variably adjusted.
