WARNING: The unit must be connected to WC pan
with a horizontal otlet spigot conforming to EN33 or
EN 37.
The unit should be accessible for possible service.
It is supplied with fixing lugs to prevent it from
moving during use.
7a WC CONNECTION
• First, put some silicon or liquid soap on the WC
spigot
• Fit the collar supplied on the pan spigot
• Pull the flexible sleeve over the pan spigot
• Position the metal hose clip over the edge of the
flexible sleeve, and tighten with a screwdriver
• Once the appliance has been positioned, fix it to
the floor using 2 screws.
WARNING !!!
There should be no dripping of water from the WC
cistern or any other sanitary appliances.
If there is, this will cause the unit to activate
repeatedly as it pumps the water away.
7b CONNECTION OF EXTRA SANITARY APPLIANCES
See fig. n° 7b1 et fig. n° 7b2
(cf. technical data sheet) for such connections as
may be required for sanitary appliances.
WARNING: Ensure when connecting a shower to the
unit that the underside of the shower tray is raised by
at least 12 cm from the floor.
7c CONNECTION OF DISCHARGE PIPEWORK
(cf. technical data sheet fig. 7c).
- Insert the sleeve on the discharge elbow and fix it
with the metal hose clip B .
- Turn the elbow in the desired direction and then
slide it into the black hose. Fix the bottom part of
the elbow with a metal hose clip B .
- If necessary, cut the end of the sleeve to fit with the
discharge pipe diameter and fix it with a metal hose
clamp C or D .
7d TECHNICAL ADVICE
PIPEWORK
(cf. technical data sheet fig. 7d ).
• The discharge pipework should be run in 22mm
copper or rigid plastic solvent weld pipework.
• Horizontal pipe runs must have a minimum fall of
1:100 (10 mm per metre) to the soil stack,
• If a vertical lift is required, it must be made before
the horizontal run at the start of the piperun,
• We would recommend that a drain-off point is
installed to allow the discharge pipework to be
drained down before any service work,
• If the discharge pipework runs to a level
considerably lower than the unit, the resultant
syphoning effect can suck out the water seal in the
unit. Fitting an air admittance valve (BBA approved
capable of withstanding 10 psi pressure) at the high
point of the pipe run will overcome this problem,
• The discharge pipework must be connected to the
soil stack using an appropriate strap on boss,
