Each bend or change of direction causes minor losses,
which must be deducted from the discharge performance
figures in accordance with the usual head loss practice.
(Rough guide: reduce discharge height by 3 feet for each
90° turn).
The discharge pipe work can be made from 3/4" diameter
material. Copper (Type M), CPVC or PVC. Use long turn
bends and not elbows, elbows are not normally available in
plastic piping, use two 45° pieces back to back to make a
90° elbow.
The connection to the soil-stack or sewer pipe should be
made with an approved wye fitting.When in doubt about
this procedure please have a plumbing contractor install
this for you.
7f ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
All wiring should be in accordance with the applicable
electrical code in your territory. The macerating system
requires a single-phase 120-volt, 15 Amp. supply. When
installed in a bathroom, the receptacle should be 40 inches
away (in a straight line) from a shower or bathtub. Connect
only to receptacle protected by a ground fault circuit
interrupter (GFCI).
WARNINg: risk of electric shock - this pump is suplied
with a grounding conductor and grounding type
attachment plug to reduce the risk of electrical shock.
Be certain that it is connected only to a properly grounded
- type receptacle.
10 uSAgE
The normal domain of application of SANIFLO macerating
units only concerns the disposal of human waste, toilet
paper and water.
SANIPACK is designed for family use only and cannot
®
accept without damage the disposal of sanitary items such
as condoms, tampons, sanitary pads and cotton swabs.
CAUTIONARY NOTES:
Do not discharge any acids, alkaloids, solvents
painting, paint strippers, food waste, plastic bags,
metal such as nails, hairpins, wood, building materials,
kitty litter or anything that could halt or damage or
corrode the unit.
Disregarding the above might damage the macerating
unit and shall void your warranty.
Do not hang bleach blocks or hydrochloride cleaners
in the toilet tank. These solutions have been shown
to deteriorate the plastic and neoprene components
of the flush and fill valves, and may cause leaks. In the
event of a power loss do not use the toilet or any other
sanitary fixture connected to the macerating unit since
it will not work until the power is restored.
The toilet works as a conventional flushing toilet and needs
no maintenance in normal use. However, there is nothing
wrong with cleaning out the macerating unit once a year.
Do not use bleach (Be careful not to let water enter the
electrical cord opening).
The macerating unit starts automatically once the toilet is
flushed or the bath, shower, hand basin, etc. discharge and
cease operation once the contents have been pumped away.
Whenever the unit is not to be used for long periods of
time (vacation, power failure, maintenance, etc.) turn off the
water supply to the tank and flush the unit to evacuate the
water. No leakage into the bowl should ever be permitted
from the tank.
In areas, which are prone to freezing, the total system must
be properly winterized.This includes the draining of all
pipes, the toilet tank and bowl and the macerating tank.
10514 126 SANIPACK US 062012.indd 5
The macerating system is simple to winterize. Pour a jug of
plumbers'anti-freeze into the tank and flush the toilet. This
will cause the macerating unit to activate and all remaining
water will be replaced by plumber's anti-freeze. No parts
or labour are warranted when a breakdown occurs due to
freezing.
Ensure that there are no faucets left open. Drops will
eventually fill up the pump and the resultant repeated
start-stop of the motor may heat up to such an extent, that
the thermal overload switch may eventually operate and
automatically stop the motor, thus possibly causing a
flood.
11 CARE Of yOuR SANIPACK
In order to remove scale and clean the macerator and the
bowl, use Saniflo's descaler.
• Disconnect the power,
• Pour an amount of descalent in the bowl and flush toilet,
• Leave it to stand for 1 or 2 hours,
• Re-connect the power,
• Rinse by operating the flushing system twice.
Carry out the operation once every 3 months on average,
but the frequency may need to be changed depending on
the hardness of the water.
