SANITATION SYSTEM COMPONENTS

Vacuum Toilet: VacuFlush all-ceramic vacuum toilets with Flush and Forget® technology operate differently compared to other toilets. The vacuum system uses a small amount of water (a little more than a pint or .5 liter) per flush in addition to a simple vacuum. The toilet is connected to a pressurized freshwater system. Fresh water is the key to an odor-free bathroom compartment. Most VacuFlush toilets are equipped with an integral vacuum breaker which prevents the possible contamination of the freshwater supply.

Flush/Add Water Switches (3100, 3400 models only): Wall-mountedpush-button switches provide electronic operation of flushing and adding water to the toilet bowl. Models include two-light vacuum status panel indicating the toilet is “OK to Flush” or “Do Not Flush”. Models vary.

Vacuum Generator: The vacuum generator combines the vacuum tank and vacuum pump in one unit. It greatly reduces installation time and eliminates the hose run between the tank and pump. Their compact size makes them especially well-suited to smaller installation spaces.

Vacuum Tank: The vacuum tank stores vacuum energy. System vacuum level is monitored by a vacuum switch located on the vacuum tank. When this switch senses a drop in vacuum in the system, it automatically signals the pump to energize and bring the vacuum to operating level. This process is normally completed in less than one minute.

Vacuum Pump: The vacuum pump is an electric, straight-through bellows type. It is manufactured of long- lasting polypropylene and draws only 4 to 6 amps of current at 12 VDC. This unique pump design is both an efficient air and liquid pump that handles solids without a problem. It has two duckbill valves on each side of the pump chamber to maintain vacuum and prevent backflow of waste.

“Tank Full” Shut-Down Switches (RV option only): These “Tank Full” micro-float switches shut down the vacuum generator when the waste holding tank is full. We offer three styles to accommodate various installation requirements.
