INTRODUCTION FOR YOUR SAFETY Dometic brings the comfort and efficiency of VacuFlush sanitation systems in an easy-to-use and easy-to-maintain package. WARNING AND SAFETY NOTICES ! Highly Efficient Freshwater Flushing – Uses very little water to make water supplies last longer. DANGER Very Low Power Consumption – 1.5 amps max. Status Panel – Indicates vacuum status, holding tank full level, tank removal status. • Removable Cassette Holding Tank – “No drip” disconnect and built-in carry handle make it easy to empty holding tank at disposal facility. ATTENTION When flushing the toilet, always keep the seat lid closed. SYSTEM COMPONENTS Integral Vent Filter – Prevents odors from escaping the holding tank. Each cassette vacuum tank includes: Safety Shut-off – Turns off vacuum pump when tank reaches full level or is removed. Compact, Flexible Installation – Cassette holding tank takes up less than 1.6 cu. ft. (.045 cu. m), and can be placed 20 feet (6 meters) from toilet. • Portable cassette vacuum tank • Cassette docking platform Dometic reserves the right to change specifications without notice. • 2 Status panel SANITATION SYSTEM LAYOUT SYSTEM GUIDELINES 1. Cassette vacuum tank must be used with VacuFlush toilet. 2. VacuFlush toilet must be connected to pressurized water supply (not shown). 3. Centerline of toilet base must be 11 inches (279 mm) from back wall. 4. 5/8-inch (16mm) ID vent hose must be attached to vent fitting (not included). INSTALLATION DOCKING PLATFORM RISER 1. The riser section of the docking platform is mounted on a level floor using four screws (not supplied). The floor must be strong enough to support the weight of the cassette when full (about 40 lbs. – 18 kg). BACK ATTENTION The riser and base sections must be assembled on the same level surface. FRONT DOCKING PLATFORM BASE 1. The base section of the docking platform is attached to the riser. The base has two tabs (A) that must be pushed into the respective slots in the rear wall of the riser. Make sure that the connection (B) for the carbon filter fits into the space provided. 2. The ventilation hose (C) is routed out the side of the base. Using barbed hose adapter provided, route reinforced 5/8-inch (16mm) vent hose (not supplied) to an outside vent fitting. 3. Fasten the base of the docking platform to the surface (D). A Make sure that the carbon filter fits into the space provided (B) and is properly connected at both ends. B A C D 3 INSTALLATION (cont’d) A INSERTING CASSETTE TANK Place the cassette tank on the docking platform, then push the cassette tank toward the back of the docking platform until the latch engages (A). CONNECTING SANITATION HOSE B. Maximum length of hose between toilet and cassette is 20 ft. (6 m). A. Maximum difference in height from toilet to cassette is 3 ft. (1 m). A B 1. Route the sanitation hose from the toilet outlet to to the cassette tank inlet (see tips for routing hose on next page). 2. Connect 1 1/2-in. (38 mm) ID sanitation hose to the white adapter fitting of the elbow assembly (see tips for connecting hose on next page). After pushing hose and fitting together, use two hose clamps to tighten the connection. 3. Push the black adapter fitting of the elbow assembly into the cassette vacuum tank. Turn adapter and hose to best angle. Dometic recommends that each hose connection be secured with two hose clamps to prevent any leaks. Position hose clamp screws 180° apart from each other and tighten clamps. 4 INSTALLATION (cont’d) HOW TO MAKE SYSTEM INSTALLATION (AND MAINTENANCE) EASIER When connecting flexible hose to plastic fittings, use liquid dish soap on end of fitting and inside hose end to make connection easier. A clockwise twist of the fitting while inserting it into the hose makes connection easier. Do not use any other lubricants, sealants or adhesives when connecting sanitation hoses and fittings. Do not restrict the ability to pull the hose or pipe. YES YES Avoid binding corners and sharp bends. Do not use wire ties to secure the hose or pipe. Vertical hose runs should be installed as vertical as possible (no long runs at an angle) for maximum vacuum efficiency. Trough support EXCELLENT HOSE LAYOUTS YES YES YES NO! 5 INSTALLATION (cont’d) ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION Electrical installation must be performed by qualified personnel only! POSITIVE NEGATIVE + The 12V DC connection to the toilet electronics is shown in the photo. Connect by correct polarity: RED + WHITE – The connection wire must be 14-gauge stranded copper wire, and must be protected by a 5-amp fuse (see wiring diagram). RED WARNING: WARNING: Power Power wires wires must must be be connected as shown. Unit will not connected as shown. Incorrect wiring operate until circuit power board. wires are properly will damage connected. Connecting Status Panel to Docking Platform Circuit Board The status panel’s 4-stranded cable connects to the circuit board (shown below right). . Circuit board location 6 – WHITE WIRING DIAGRAM 1 – “Tank Full” Float Switch 2 – Tank Interlock Switch 3 – Vacuum Switch 4 – Vacuum Pump Motor 7 OPERATION DISPLAY PANEL. GREEN – Ready to flush. LED RED – Cassette full, or cassette removed, or undervoltage. Toilet cannot be flushed. YELLOW – Vacuum pump is running. Do not flush toilet. START-UP CHECKLIST Before first-time use of the 2500 series sanitation system, check the following: • The vacuum cassette tank is inserted correctly. • The fresh water supply tank is full. • The power supply is on. The yellow LED illuminates for about one minute. Then the green LED illuminates. THE SYSTEM IS READY FOR OPERATION. FLUSHING THE TOILET 1. Make sure there is enough water in the bowl to cover the flush ball and seal in bottom of bowl. Lift pedal to add water to bowl (if needed for flushing solids). 2. To flush, press pedal down to floor and hold down for 2 or 3 seconds. Keep seat lid closed to reduce noise. 3. The toilet will flush liquids effectively with only 1 pint (0.4 liters) of water per flush. 4. Use only rapid-dissolving toilet paper designed for low water flow toilets. Some residential bath tissues may clog the system. Flush toilet only when green LED is illuminated. 5. If the cassette tank is full, the tank is removed from the docking platform, or the voltage is too low, the red LED illuminates and the system switches off. The system cannot be used until the cassette is emptied, inserted properly in the docking platform, and the correct voltage is restored. Never flush toilet while sitting on open toilet seat, or if the seat lid is up. Do not flush any solid or non-dissolving objects such as paper towels, plastic cans. They can plug or damage system. REMOVING CASSETTE TANK (model 2510) B A 1. Raise the latch (A). Holding the carrying handle (B), pull cassette straight back. 2. When reattaching cassette tank, make sure it is placed correctly on docking platform. Make sure latch engages after pushing tank into platform. 8 OPERATION (cont’d) EMPTYING CASSETTE TANK (model 2510) 1. Carry cassette tank to disposal facility. 2. With tank sitting level, open large cap (A), and pour contents into disposal receptacle. 3. If possible, rinse the cassette with fresh water each time it is emptied. A EMPTYING CASSETTE TANK (models 2520, 2521) 1. Turn off water to toilet and electrical power to cassette vacuum tank. 2. Connect dockside discharge pump nozzle to deck-mounted discharge fitting. 3. Flush valve in toilet should be held open (by pressing down on flush pedal) when dockside pump is used to empty holding tank. 4. Turn on dockside pump to discharge contents of cassette tank. CLEANING CASSETTE TANK AND DOCKING PLATFORM Occasionally, clean the connection points on the cassette tank and docking platform where effluent may accumulate. See photos for these locations. CHANGING THE VENT FILTER The filter in the docking platform should be changed about every year, depending on frequency of system use. See parts list for part number to order. 1. Push filter toward platform riser. 2. Lift filter out of platform base. When inserting new filter, make sure holes in filter line up with vent line fittings. 9 TROUBLESHOOTING Problem 1.
