IMPORTANT ADDITIONAL
INFORMATION
INTRODUCTION
I
This macerator/pump is manufactured in a factory
which is quality certified to ISO 9001. To benefit
from the advantages provided by this new
generation system, it is important to comply with
the installation instructions.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
II
The macerator/pump unit is a residential pumping
system for a toilet and bathroom fixtures. It can
simultaneously receive wastewater from sanitary
fixtures such as a sink, but only one toilet per unit.
This macerator is designed for the disposal
of human waste, toilet paper and water. They
are not intended to be used for the disposal of
kitchen waste or from pump appliances such as
a dishwasher or washing machine. Installed and
used correctly, this system will give consistent and
reliable service. This system must discharge into
a minimum 3/4" or 1" sanitary drain pipe. This
system will pump up to 15 feet vertically and/or
150 Ft horizontally, with a minimum 1/4" per foot
gravity fall constantly throughout the horizontal run
to the point of discharge.
There is an extension pipe available from Saniflo
which is 18" in length and is used to install the
pump behind a wall. It attaches to each end of the
toilet and macerator for a secure fit.
Note : The macerator can be installed right
behind the toilet or further away using the optional
extension pipe.
INSTALLATION ADVICE
III
1. All discharge pipe work must be connected
to the soil stack by an appropriate and approved
connection (a "wye" fitting is preferable). Note that
the connection into a horizontal soil stack shall be
through the top of the pipe.
2. The discharge pipe from the macerating system
shall be an independent line as no other drain pipe
shall tie into it.
3. Any initial horizontal pipe run from the unit, prior
to the vertical lift, should not exceed 18 inches.
Note: After the first vertical run, any run afterwards
should be in a horizontal man- ner with the required
slope. Therefore, you cannot change directions in
an upward vertical manner.
4. Use long sweeping 90 degree elbows or two
45 degree elbows back-to-back to create the 90
degree turn.
5. The macerator shall be positioned on the same
level and adjacent to the toilet.
6. When the point of discharge into the soil stack
is lower than the base of the unit, a vacuum relief
valve may need to be fitted at the highest point of
the pipe run in order to avoid siphonage.
7. The macerating unit cannot accept without
damage the disposal of sanitary items such as
condoms, tampons, sanitary pads, cottons swabs,
etc.
8. Any drain pipe leading into the pump shall have
a minimum 1/4" per foot gravity fall. Any horizontal
discharge pipe shall also have this minimum pitch.
9. The total run on the discharge pipe shall be no
less than 3 ft (combined) before it drains into a
larger stack.
10. The discharge pipe work should not be installed
with a diagonal upward slope.

TOILET ASSEMBLY
V
1. The toilet tank is provided with the fill and flush
valve assembled in the tank, however, please
ensure that all connections are tightened.
2. Place the macerating unit in the desired spot
and connect all inlet and outlet waste piping to
the unit. (See section VII - Connection of the
Discharge Pipe).
3. Place the spigot outlet of the toilet bowl firmly
against the white accordion connector and mark
the floor through the holes in the bowl.
4. Remove bowl and bore two holes approximately
2 1/4" deep with a 5/16" masonry drill bit. Insert
plastic plugs into holes. If the floor is wood, bore a
pilot hole with a 1/4" drill bit.
5. Place the bowl in front of the macerating unit
and pull the accordion gasket (H) all the way onto
the rear spigot outlet. Attach with supplied clamp.
Check that gasket and clamp are even all around.
(See section VIII - Preparing the Macerating
Unit).
6. Move the bowl over the holes in floor. Slip the
plastic china protectors over the lag screws. Tighten
lag scvrews (do not over tighten) and snap plastic
cover caps in place.
7. Locate the tank to bowl kit and place foam
gasket on the spud of the tank and over nut. Place
tank on top of the bowl. Insert screws and gasket
through the tank and tighten nuts underneath. Do
not over tighten as this may damage the china.
8. Connect the water supply hose to the fill valve.
9. All pipe work must be rigid be rigid: SCH 40 pipe
(PVC, CPVC, Copper). Pipe supports should not be
less than three feet apart.
Note that the unit as well as most of the pipes and
connections should have easy accessibility.
NORMAL OPERATING CYCLE
VI
As the flush is operated or as the lavatory
discharges, the water and waste enter the unit
and the water level begins to rise, triggering the
micro- switch in the pressure chamber. This in turn
activates the motor. The shredded waste is picked
up by the impeller and discharged through a 3/4"
or 1" be rigid: SCH 40 pipe (PVC, CPVC, Copper) to
a sanitary sewer or soil stack.
Safety note: For safety, the macerating unit should
never be activated with the lid removed.
CONNECTION OF THE
VII
DISCHARGE PIPE
These systems are provided with a discharge elbow
which has a built-in check valve (A), a flexible
discharge hose (B), a plastic coupling (C) and a
step-down rubber connection (D). Follow these
steps to connect to your discharge pipe. When
securing clamps utilize a socket wrench in place of
a screw driver to ensure firm leak proof connections.
1. Insert the larger end of the plastic discharge
elbow (A) into the rubber discharge hose coming
out from the top of the pump.
2. Rotate the discharge to any direction and secure
the base of the elbow with a clamp (L).
3. Connect the flexible hose (B) to the smaller end
of the discharge elbow and secure with a clamp (J).
For 3/4" CPVC (22 mm)
4. Insert the discharge pipe inside the flexible hose
(B) and secure with a clamp (J).
For 3/4" PVC (28 mm)
4. Insert the smaller end of the plastic coupling (C)
inside the flexible hose (B); secure with clamp (J).
5. Connect the step-down rubber connection (D) to
the other end of the plastic coupling (C); secure with
a clamp (K).
6. Insert the discharge pipe inside the step-down
rubber connection (D) and secure with clamp (K).
For 1" PVC (32 mm)
4. Insert the smaller end of the plastic coupling (C)
inside the flexible hose (B); secure with clamp (J).
5. Connect the step-down rubber connection (D) to
the other end of the plastic coupling (C); secure with
a clamp (K).
6. Cut off the end of the step-down rubber
connection to fit the 1" pipe; secure with clamp (K).
Note: Install a ball valve in the discharge line in
order to facilitate the removal of the unit. If you want
the unit to pump vertically and horizontally, you
may calculate that 3 Ft of vertical lift is equivalent
to 30 Ft of horizontal run. Note that all horizontal
runs require a 1/4" per foot gravity fall. Each bend
or change in direction causes minor losses which
must be deducted from the discharge performance
(i.e. reduce discharge height by 3 Ft for each 90
degree turn). Use long sweeping 90 degree elbows
or two 45 degree elbows back-to-back to create the
90 degree turn. Do not use 90 degree elbows.
