EVACUATION
Caution : Please check local legislation regar-
ding discharge from on board toilets- i.e. hol-
ding tanks etc.
SANIMARIN Maxlite macerates and pumps
effluents. A seacock 3 should be fitted where
the SANIMARIN® discharges through a skin
fitting.
Caution : For units installed below the water
line, the discharge pipe should rise at least 50
4
cm above water level and be fitted with an an-
ti-syphon valve prior to falling and discharging
through the skin fitting. Paragraph 7.
The device outlet is fitted with a non-return
valve. Paragraph 1 (Exhibit E).
The outlet diameter is 38 mm (if necessary an
adapter for 25 mm is provided in the accessory
bag).

CONNECTING THE SEA
WATER SUPPLY
First determine whether the sea water supply
to the Maxlite will be above or below the water-
line, and then proceed with the installation as
explained in paragraphs 6 and 6b.
If the installation of the toilet requires the use
of through-hull valves below the waterline, it is
essential to follow the fitting instructions pro-
vided by the manufacturer of the through-hull
valve. Access to the valves should be easy for
all users of the toilet. If this is not the case, ad-
ditional full flow marine quality valves should be
installed on the water inlet and outlet.
If the toilet is connected to a through-hull fitting
below the waterline, it is important to check the
condition of the pipes. There is a risk of water
entry into the boat, which could cause it to sink.
Use of a vented loop is mandatory.
Caution: all vented loops (not supplied with the
toilet) must be installed a minimum of 30 cm
above the waterline.
When using for the first time, it may be neces-
sary to prime the pump by pouring a little water
into it.
Connect your water feed pipe from the through-
hull valve to the built-in self-priming pump (20
mm dia.).( Diagrams 6 and 6B ). Fit necessarily
a filter upstream of your installation.
CAUTION:
Do not connect the Maxlite Toilet to an on-board
drinking water or pressurised water system.
Do not install a pump controlled by an automa-
tic switch.
Failure to comply with the above guidelines
could cause a flood or contamination of the
drinking water supply.
Make sure that the two through-hull fittings:
those for the sea water supply and for the soil
water outlet are not too close together.
