SANICUBIC 1 OPERATING
PRINCIPLE
SANICUBIC
1 contains 1 pump equipped
®
with a high performance grinding system.
The SANICUBIC
1 tank is fitted with 3 dip
®
tubes; 2 tubes control the motor operation,
and the other one controls the alarm system.
- Long pickup tube (normal operation): as
soon as the waste water level in the tank
reaches the triggering point in the long
tube, the pumping system starts up.
- Short pickup tube (inflow overload
operation): if the waste water level in the
tank reaches the upper point, a contact
is activated. This contact sets off a visual
alarm on the control panel. If the external
wired alarm is connected, this would give
you an audible and visual alarm. (See
section 9)

REGULATIONS
8a
1- Attention: the space in which the
SANICUBIC
®
be large enough to leave at least 24''
of working room around and above
the unit to facilitate such maintenance
work as may be required. There must
be sufficient lighting, and it must be
sufficiently well ventilated and protec-
ted from freezing.
2- Isolating valves (not supplied) must
be fitted on waste inlets (especially
the 4'' inlets) and on the discharge
to ensure that any service/
maintenance may be carried out
safely.
3- The discharge pipe must be fitted
so as to avoid all back flow from the
drainage system (see the examples
in drawing
8g
avoided by installing an anti-back flow
riser reaching a high point above the
maximum back flow level.
Comment: In the absence of local
information to the contrary, the
maximum back flow level corresponds
to street level (roadway, pavements,
etc.). Continue the discharge pipework
after the anti-backflow riser, using a
larger diameter pipe.
4- If the SANICUBIC
space such as a pit for example, we
would recommend the fitting of a bilge

®
pump in case of flooding.

EQUIPMENT TO THE LOWER
INLETS
If you want to install a shower,
bath or even a toilet at the same
level of the Sanicubic 1, you must
make sure that the outlets of each fixture
are at least 10" above the base of the
Sanicubic 1. (ie. If connecting a rear out-
let toilet to the Sanicubic 1, the back spi-
got of the bowl (cl) should be 10" above
the base of the Sanicubic 1.)

WARNING: Note that the vent
system should be a two-way air
vent. The use of mechanical vents,
air admittance valves or similar
devices are not permitted as these
are considered one-way air vent
systems.
The vent must be an open vent or
the unit will not operate.
2- VENTING THE ELECTRICAL SECTION
Connect the 8/11 clear PVC tubing (
supplied to the keyboard on the
SANICUBIC
1. The other end of this
®
tubing must be located between 3 Ft
and 6 Ft above the device to avoid
water getting into the electrical part
in the event of flooding.
Important: Do not pinch the tubing.
