USER MANUAL WC110S Vetus

Note! These Vetus toilets may only be used for pumping and removal of faeces and toilet paper. These toilet are not suitable for pumping other objects such as cotton wool pads, tampons, sanitary towels, con- doms or hair, or for pumping out fluids like oil. This could cause damage! Always make sure you have a pair of rubber gloves on board. 2 Working 12 V / 24 V: The particular cycle chosen is carried out automatically after operating the appropri- ate button. A choice can be made between the ‘ECO’cycleofabout10secondsandthe ‘NORMAL’ cycle thatlastsabout20 sec- onds. 120 V / 230 V: When the button on the toilet pot is pressed the cycle is carried out automati- cally. This lasts for about 25 seconds. The cycle consists of:

• Aflushingphase: The magnetic valve allows water to run into the toilet for a set time.

• Agrinding/pumpingphase: The motor drives the knife blades and the pump. The faeces and toilet paper are ground up and pumped away.

• Aphaseinwhichthewatersealisbroughtbacktothenor- mal level: The magnetic valve allows water to run into the toilet for a set time. This forms a water seal and prevents smells in the toilet pot. 3 Safety Ensure that the power supply is switched off during mainte- nance or repairs. 4 Installation

See Page 26 for installation examples. Always install the toilet in accordance with the applicable regu- lations of the country concerned. In some areas, it may not be permitted to pump waste straight from the toilet into the water!

4.2 Fitting the toilet to the floor

Always mount the toilet on a sufficiently strong floor to prevent the occurrence of point loads and the toilet bowl splitting. If necessary fit an extra sheet of multiplex under the floor to rein- force it.

• Fixthereducingpieceusingthehoseclamp(E).

• Fittheoutlethose(ø19mm).

• The reducing piece can be fitted in any position so that the outlet hose can be led to the left, right, up or down as required.

• The bent part of the reducing piece can be sawn off in order to lead the outlet behind the toilet.

• Fortheoutletpipeusea19mminternaldiameterhose(such asthe‘Vetusimpermeable"nosmell"sanitaryhose’).

• Connect the outlet pipe to a waste water tank or hull access hole with stopcock.

• Fixtheoutletwithclamps.

Fitaballvalvewith3/4”externalconnectiontothesupplypipe and make sure that this will always be accessible. If there is already a pressurised water system on board the sup- ply hose can be connected to this system. The pressure must be at least 1.5 bar; this is the minimum pressure required to allow the toilet to function properly. If the water pressure system is less than 1.5 bar or if external water is to be used then a supply pump with capacity of at least 10litres/minute(2.2Imp.Gal/min;2.7USGal/min)must be fit- ted in the water supply pipe. If external water is to be used then this must be properly fil- tered. Thetoilethasa3/4”connector. Connect the flexible water supply hose to the ball valve on the water supply pipe.

4.3.3 Preventing siphoning

Whenthetoilet isbelow, orlessthan 40cm.(16”)above the waterline, there is a danger of outside water being siphoned into the toilet through the outlet. To prevent this siphoning, fit an air-relief valve in the highest point in the outlet (see Installation examples).

Theflexiblesupplypipe(F)hasa3/4”connector. When a pressurised water system is already installed on board, the supply pipe can be connected to this. However, the pressure in this system should be a minimum of 1.5 Bar (22 psi); this is the minimum pressure for proper flushing. When the pressure in the water system is less than 1.5 Bar (22 psi), or when water from outside is used as flushing water, then install a water pump in the supply pipe. The capacity of this water supply pump should be minimal 10 litres per minute (2.2Imp.Gal/min;2.7USGal/min). When water from outside is used for flushing, ensure that this water is very well filtered.

4.4.3 Preventing siphoning

Whenthetoiletis below,orlessthan40cm. (16”) above the waterline, there is a danger of outside water being siphoned into the toilet through the outlet. To prevent this siphoning, fit an air-relief valve in the highest point in the outlet (see Installation examples).

• Push the non-return valve (A) into the outlet hose (B).

• Screw in the flexible flap in the right direction (in the direction of flow).

• Fit the elbow piece (C) to the outlet hose using the hose clamp supplied.

• Fitthereductionpiece(D)totheelbowpieceoutlet.

• Fittheoutletpipe(E)(19mm.internaldiameter(1”))tothe reductionpieceusing the hose clamp supplied. Use Vetus odour-free waste water pipe as outlet pipe.

• Take care that the outlet pipe (B) does not kink.

• Connect the outlet pipe (E) to a waste water tank or hull access hole with stopcock.110123.02 11Electric marine toilets WCS(2) - WCL(2) ENGLISH

4.8 Testing and preparing for operation

Open the supply pipe stopcock and outlet pipe stopcock fully in order to ensure proper flushing. Press the button, release and check that the cycle operates correctly. Throw a number of pieces of toilet paper in the toilet bowl and flush again. 5 Use

• Make sure that the ball valve in the water supply pipe is open. 12 V / 24 V: • Ashortorlongflushcanbeused.

• Afterusingthetoiletshutofftheballvalve. If the toilet has not been used for some time it is advisable to rinse it with clean water a few times before using it. The following precautions must be taken during periods of frost (winter) :

• Shutoffthewatersupplytothetoilet. 12 V / 24 V: • Pump the toilet empty by pressing the button with the pump symbol and holding this in. 120 V / 230 V: • Carry out a cycle without water.

• Pourabout2litresanti-freezeintothetoiletpot.

• Drainthepipes. Anti-freeze is poisonous and must never be drained into the external water. WCS WCL12 110123.01 Electric marine toilets WCS(2) - WCL(2) 6 Maintenance Traditional toilet cleaners can be used to clean the toilet and to remove scale. In order to prevent scale deposits from building up in the pump these must be removed regularly as follows:

• Shutoffthewatersupplybyclosingtheballvalve. 12 V / 24 V: • Pump the toilet empty by pressing the button with the pump symbol and holding this in. 120 V / 230 V: • Carry out a cycle without water.

• Pourabout1litreofvinegarorscaleremoverintothetoilet pot and let it soak for some hours.

• Open the ball valve again and carry out several cycles in order to flush the toilet pot thoroughly and remove all the water used from the pump. How often the scale needs to be removed depends on the hard- ness of the water, but it should be done at least twice a year. Do not use products based on sodium (unblocking products) or solvents. If seawater is used for flushing the toilet should be rinsed through with fresh water every so often to prevent salt deposits from building up. 7 Technical details Voltage : 12V 24V 110V 230V Current : 25A 15A 9A 2.8A Maximum vertical lift in outlet : 3 metres Maximum hose length: 30 metres Pump capacity at discharge height of 3 metres : 36litres/min@12V 43litres/min@24V 42litres/min@120/230V Maximum water temperature : 35˚C Noise level : 61 dBA Protection : IP44 Weight : WCS(2) : 23 Kg (50 lbs) WCL(2):29Kg(64lbs)110123.01 13 Electric marine toilets WCS(2) - WCL(2) 8 Fault Tracing Ensure that the power supply is switched off during repairs.
