SANICOMPACT
This
modern shaped self-contained china toilet is especially designed with several
ideas in mind:
for situations where there is not enough space
as a toilet that uses a minimum amount of water
as a toilet for use with people that have physical limitations.
The
flushing mechanism is electrically timed to allow approximately 4 liters
(1.1 USG) of
water to pass through the toilet.
The
Sanicompact has no external water tank as the flushing mechanism is built
in and is totally electric. After use,
one presses a pneumatic button on
top of the bowl, this activates a timer and a solenoid valve in order
to fill and
wash the sides of the bowl. The motor starts and the waste and paper
are sucked inside, where it is macerated and pumped away. The motor stops
after
approximately
15 seconds and the timer programs the refill of the bowl with fresh water.
The
discharge pipe of the Sanicompact is 1 inch in diameter, the pump operates
at 7 PSI and pumps the effluent upwards to 9 feet and/or 100
feet horizontally.
The discharge pipe-work may be made with either copper or solvent welded
plastic material, provided that a consistent gravity fall of 2% is
maintained throughout
the run.
At
the soil-stack end of the pipe run the small-bore pipe-work must be connected
to the waste by means of an appropriate TY fitting. Electrical
supply to
the Sanicompact is 120V, 15 Amp. The system should be connected to
a
Ground Fault
Circuit Interrupter circuit.
The Sanicompact is a self contained toilet with the macerator pump
and an electrical activated flushing action built inside the
unit. That is
why the
Sanicompact
can be installed in very small places. It is very water efficient,
using just 4 litres (1.1 gallon) of water per flush. The Sanicompact
does not
depend on
gravity, it can be used where large diameter pipe cannot be used.
