Important before installation!

  • This manual should be saved by the owner!
  • Read the whole manual before installation.
  • Installation must be done by a professional tradesman, or by a person with comparable experience and knowledge.
  • When installing a tank, make sure to check what is approved in your respektive commune.
  • Don’t remove the small foam pieces under the front edge. (They hold the flushing pipe in place)..
  • FOR SEPARATING WC: The is a pre-mounted water trap in the urine bowl, no additional water trap should be mounted in the urine outlet.
  • The control unit has a counting unit that shows the number of flushes, and gives an indikation of how filled the tank is. However a separate septic tank alarm that warns about high levels must be installed.
  • The turbine in the vacuum unit is expendable and will need to be replaced within a few years. Usually ca 4-5 years. A strong recommendation in that always have a spare motor unit.
  • The whole system is sensitive to frost and needs to be kept frost free.
  • If the toilet risks being exposed to degrees below 0 degrees Celsius, empty the water trap and the solenoid valve of water, otherwise frost damage can emerge.
  • No napkins, paper towels, feminine hygiene products, cotton balls etc. should be flushed down the WC. Only toilet paper with shorts fibers should be used.
  • See complete troubleshooting at www.wostman.se/support.

Piping

Avoid

Wostman EcoVac WC Extend Vacuum Toilet - fig 3

No hard 90° on the pipes, it can cause clogging.| Avoid sinks where water can gather and freeze.| The rubber part behind the WC should remain it’s original shape.

Recommendations

Wostman EcoVac WC Extend Vacuum Toilet - fig 4

If a turn must be installed, use x2 45° rather then x1 sharp 90°.| A slight fall on the pipes is recommend, it allows flushing even
in the event of power failure

Possibilities

Wostman EcoVac WC Extend Vacuum Toilet - fig 5

A 50mm pipe or PEM hose can be mounted inside existing 110mm pipes..| The pipes can be mounted through
walls or be drawn through the floor.
Wostman EcoVac WC Extend Vacuum Toilet - fig 6
The pipes can be mounted uphill. But not exceed a hight difference of 2m. If the pipes are mounted uphill the possibility of using the toilet
under a power break is limited.| The pipes does not have to be buried deep since they are always empty and are not sensitive to frost.

---|---|---|---
1. Flushing time | 1-2 Sec| 1-2 Sec|
2. Vacuum time | Straight / falling pipes:
0-15 m = 3 sec
15-30 m = 5 sec| Straight / falling pipes:
0-15 m = 3 sec
15-10 m = 5 sec| X meters = distans between WC and vacuum turbine. (Not hight difference.
Vertical / rising pipes:
0-15 m = 4 sec
15-30 m = 6 sec| Vertical / rising pipes:
0-15 m = 4 sec
15-10 m = 6 sec| Hight difference may not exceed 2
m with rising pipes.)
3. Pause | The pause is always 3 seconds.| The pause is always 3 seconds.| Ex: 6 Sec vakuum time = 6-7 sec Pause.
4. Refill | 2-4 seconds.| 2-4 seconds.| Until water level is 1,5 cm above outlet hole.

Mount the Control unit

Wostman EcoVac WC Extend Vacuum Toilet - fig 21The picture above shows an example of control units for two EcoVac mounted next to the power central.
Recommendations:
– The control unit should be placed in a dry and accessible place. Preferably inside the house, by the power central. (It should not be put next to the vacuum turbine (BASE) or the vacuum unit (EXTEND). It should be easy to find and make changes to the settings if necessary (and you should de able to hear the alarm signal.)
– Tank alarm should be installed on the septic tank. This should also be taken into consideration during wiring.
– Wire the control unit without RCD (Residual current device) since the vacuum turbine (BASE) is often placed in a moist, locked place under ground and do not have constant power.
– Connect the signal cable to the WC before you connect the control unit to any power.
– One extra single phase cable should be installed at this point from the power central to the tank. This cable should be installed with constant power for the frost guard and heat cable. (OBS. don’t use three phase cable). EKKY 3×1,5 mm.
– Make sure to use the supplied seal strip for the lid on the Control unit.
