A VacuFlush 4800 series toilet is part of a total sanitation system that includes a vacuum source and usually a holding tank. Because of the wide variation of boat types and models, Dometic produces a wide range of vacuum-generating components, holding tanks and accessories. The VacuFlush system diagram (above) provides a general orientation to a typical

vacuum sanitation system.

Vacuum Source: A variety of Dometic vacuum sources provide vacuum energy to move the waste from the toilet to the holding tank. All consist of a vacuum storage reservoir and vacuum pump. These can be separate or combined units (vacuum generators).

Holding Tanks: Many boats are equipped with a holding tank, and many of those are SeaLand holding tank systems. SeaLand tanks are available in many capacities, and can include pre-installed vacuum generator, tank level monitor, discharge pump,

and other accessories to enhance the comfort and convenience of marine sanitation.

Marine Sanitation Regulations

All boats with fixed toilets in U.S. waters and in the waters of some other countries are required to have an operable marine sanitation device (MSD). The VacuFlush vacuum sanitation system, when installed in a boat, is a holding tank or Type III system as defined by the U.S. Coast Guard. Type III systems permit operation of the toilet without direct discharge of untreated waste after every flush. Type III systems can be discharged at marina dockside pump-out stations or, if in coastal waters, a minimum of three miles offshore. Overboard discharge capability must remain secured while within the three-mile limit. The overboard discharge pump is activated by a keyed switch in the toilet compartment. This key should be removed at all times except when discharge pump is operating.

Sewage from any source should not be discharged directly into our waters. If you are interested in learning more about this issue, please visit our website at www.DometicSanitation.com.
