SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Safety summary
The Evac Vacuum Toilet System receives, treats and discharges sewage waste. Personnel must, at all times,
observe safety regulations while performing maintenance or repairs. Every practical safety feature has been incorporated
into the design and manufacture of this equipment; however, personnel must be aware of the following potential
hazards.
Gas hazards
Putrefaction of organic matter in Vacuum Toilet Systems will produce disagreeable odors and an oxygen deficient
atmosphere. When removing access covers, fresh air from known outside source must be supplied to the surrounding
area. Only after this fresh air has been supplied for the proper tank ventilation should personnel open the tank. Under
no circumstances should any person service a tank without a second person, capable of rendering aid, standing by.
If an extended period of time for the tank repair is anticipated, personnel should utilize the proper respiratory equipment.
Chemical hazards
If some chemicals like disinfection chemicals, foam removing chemicals or pipe cleaning chemicals are used,
manufactures safety regulations must be followed.
Disease hazards
Sewage is a common mode of transmission for parasitic organisms such as bacteria, fungi, protozoa, viruses and
worms. Some of these may be pathogenic, meaning they have the capability of causing serious communicable
diseases. Most diseases associated with sewage result hand-to-mouth transfer of the pathogenic organisms.
Good personal hygiene by those servicing, or in any way coming in contact with the equipment is imperative. After
coming in contact with sewage or any contaminated equipment items, personnel should throughly clean themselves
with a disinfectant soap solution. This precaution is an absolute requirement before eating, drinking or performing
hand-to-mouth functions. Skin abrations, punctures or any other wounds require immediate and proper medical
attention.
Mechanical hazards
Before maintenance is performed on motor driven equipment, the main circuit breaker should be de-energized and
labeled "OUT OF SERVICE". Only authorized maintenance personnel should make repairs to this equipment.
Electrical hazards
The equipment is supplied with voltages that are dangerous and could provide fatal if contacted by personnel. To avoid
electrical shock, remove the electrical power by placing the main circuit breaker in OFF position. Do this before
performing any maintenance on electrical equipment or motors. Personnel should exercise extreme caution when
opening the door although the main circuit breaker is in OFF position. The terminals of incoming power are still alive.

DESIGN AND INSTALLATION
In vacuum systems sewage transport is done by vacuum (air) instead of water and gravity. Sewage is transported in
"slugs". Optimal "slug" transport is obtained by following these Design and Installation instructions.
System capacity must be dimensioned considering normal daily variations in use and different operation conditions.
System load (flushings) should be divided evenly between main lines. Ships pitch, a roll and trim shall be considered
in horizontal pipe design to prevent sewage back flow. The best horizontal transport solution is obtained with sloped
pipe, transport pocket at interval of 25 - 30m and/or non-return valve. Piping shall be designed so that possible clogging
or maintenance is not stopping the whole system. System pipe tightness must be tested, documented and maintained
for good system operation and low energy consumption. Piping shall be accessible and divided in sections for easy
maintenance.

2. Pipe materials
Pipe material must be suitable for sewage transport in vacuum conditions (pressure piping). Fire, corrosion and
maintenance aspects must be considered.
When plastic pipes are used, fire protection regulations must be observed. Note the differences between the different
kinds of plastic materials. HDPE may not be allowed by some authorities.
Check carefully aspects relating to safety and industrial hygiene. Vapours released by PVC solvents are harmful.
Plastic piping does not resist temperatures above 40°C. ( Check always with the pipe manufacturer. )

Pipe sizing is based on the assumption that 2 - 3 persons are using a cabin toilet per peak hour. For public
toilets up to 15 flushes per hour is estimated.
Heavily used public toilets are recommended to be connected to their own individual pipe connected directly
down to manifold.
* Normally maximum number of toilets in one main line is limited to 50 - 60 toilets for easy maintenance.
** When using zinc coated steel pipes, the recommended riser pipe size is DN40 (42 x 1.5).

6. Brackets
In vacuum piping high "slug" speed temporarily creates strong forces at bends and branches. Pipes must be firmly
secured by using brackets and clamps. For plastic pipes use steel brackets with a resilient liner between bracket and
pipe, or plastic clamps. Ensure that pipes will not be damaged by vibration or thermal expansion / contraction. Brackets
or clamps must be fitted at every change of direction. When connecting a riser pipe to an overhead main line, brackets
or clamps must be secured both behind the toilet and at deckhead. For straight steel pipes, fit brackets at 2.5 m centres
and on plastic pipes at 1.5 m centres, or according to maker´s recommendation.
Vacuum system gives many benefits and flexibility because the system is not depended on gravity.
Downward piping connection is the best for long term system operation and maintenance although sanitary
equipments (toilets and interface valves) can be connected to riser pipes.
When riser pipes are used, please follow enclosed riser pipe rules in item 10.

Shut-off valves should be straight-channel valves ( slide, membrane or ball). The valves should be located in such a
way that a malfunction or leakage would not stop the whole system. Valves should generally be installed on each
main pipeline.
If possible, the shut-off valve should be located on a vertical part of a pipe. In such position, possible sedimentation
in front of the slide will not cause a stoppage easily.

TIGHTNESS REQUIREMENT
As sewage transportation is based on pressure difference, there should be minimum leakage in the vacuum sewage
system. Leakage in the system will lower systems operation performance and gives excess wear and tear for
components. Electric consumption will increase due to the fact that the pumps must run more often to obtain
vacuum. Low vacuum decreases the sewage flow speed in pipes and it will increase the risk of clogging.
Pipe installation design and tightness of a vacuum pipeline must be checked in stages during construction, one
section pipeline at a time. Tightness testing can be done by using pressure air, water or preferably with vacuum.
Pipeline tightness testing is to be done before installation of toilets etc. Toilet connections shall be blocked during the
test by rubber plugs or equal.
During the pipe installation, tightness tests shall be done to eliminate possible leaks in pipe joints etc. When the
sewage piping system is ready with all vacuum components connected, the test should be run again to check any
possible leakages in toilets, vacuum interface valves etc.
When toilets and other components are connected to the piping, vacuum pressure in the piping system shall stay
between -55 kPa ...-30 kPa for 10-30 minutes without pump starts to guarantee all different operation conditons.
The tightness of the piping system must always be tested. The test procedure and test results must be documented.
( see enclosed test protocol ).

TIGHTNESS REQUIREMENT
General
All piping must be tightness-tested before toilets, interface valves and vacuum units are connected to the piping
system. Tightness must be checked pipe section by pipe section. Finally the complete vacuum piping must be
checked.
1. Vacuum Test:
-60 kPa vacuum is created to the pipe, all possible leaks are to be removed until leak is limited to
+2 kPa/h (i.e. 2 kPa drop in pressure from -60 kPa to -58 kPa during 1 hour).
Documentation of results
Always document the results ( use enclosed test protocol ).

PIPING
OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
1. General
This document provides information about pipe operation and maintenance and shall be used as advisory only. The
maintenance shall be carried out by qualified and authorized personnel to avoid any risks and misuses. While carrying
out the maintenance, the safety instructions must be followed.
As sewage is an aggressive liquid and can cause corrosion which may lead to leakages in pipes and in system
components, it is recommended that the piping should be inspected 2...4 times per year visually through cleaning plugs
and flanges.
During inspection, also check the cleaness of the pipe. The risk of built-up deposits is most likely in horizontal pipe
lines, near urinals, in places where the sewage flow is slow and in areas, where the temperature is high. If any serious
deposits or build-ups occur, clean the pipe by the following method: Rinse the piping with a lime-removing agent, e.g.
15--30% phosphoric acid or similar. The agent should be poured into the toilets at the end of each main branch of the
piping. The acid should be allowed to work for some hours depending on the amount of solid built-ups. Occasionally
a piping treatment may be necessary where toilets and other components are removed and piping plugged and filled
with circulating chemical for 4...24 hours at regular interval.
! NOTE: Before filling up the piping with chemicals, check pipe tightness by filling the pipes with water. Strong chemicals
may be harmful to the pipes and biological treatment plant.
! HINT: Today’s camera technology (camera into vacuum piping) makes it very easy to locate problem section(s) of
piping or how frequently pipe cleaning should be done.
2. Pipe cleaning
Best results will be achieved if regular cleaning procedures are adopted from the very beginning of the vessels delivery
from the yard.
Evac has developed automatic dosing pump set ( P/N 6540390 ) where cleaning chemical can be fed into the piping
automatically.
By the time, vacuum sewage piping may exhibit signs of build-up deposit.This problem can in most cases be reduced
or totally eliminated by undertaking relatively simple preventive maintenance measures. It is recommended that ships
experiencing problems with build-up adopt the following maintenance routine:
• Pour suitable chemical (see attached list) in each toilet at the end of each vacuum line with a build-up of deposit
problem and flush the toilets.
• Initially, repeat the procedure every week. Once the problem has been brought under control, repeat the treatment
regularly.
! NOTE: If used excessively, some chemicals may degrade the performance of some biological treatment plants.
Local regulations must be adhered to when handling some of the listed chemicals.

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
Best results will be achieved when regular cleaning procedures are adopted from the very beginning of the vessels
delivery from the yard.
The build-ups occur most easily in places such as low bends in the horizontal part of the piping, where the sewage has
a possibility to lie still for longer periods of time or where the flow velocity is low. Heat stimulates the build-up of deposits.

2. Isolate the horizontal branch pipe to be treated from vertical main pipe by means of the shut-of valve.
3. Check the piping drawings to be sure that there are no connections to, for instance, the toilets with riser pipes.
Chemical mixture may overflow through the riser toilets.
4. It is always recommended to pressure test the piping with water to ensure that there are no leaks or connections
with overflow possibility before chemicals are fed into the pipe.

5. There can be places in the piping system where a drilled hole has been used to find the location of a pipe blockage.
Occasionally such drill holes may have been plugged inappropriately only to stand vacuum, not pressure or
chemicals. In this case there is a risk the cleaning chemical may penetrate the plugged hole and cause leakage.
Such holes shall be secured properly by ordinary connectors prior the work and pressure tested with water.
A drilled hole
6. To ventilate the piping during chemical filling, open the vacuum piping for instance adjacent to the chemical feeding.
It is important that the open end of the piping system is well ventilated, because chemical cleaning process is creating
toxic gases. Do not have open flames, sparks, or any sources of fire in the vicinity of the open end of piping.
Proper ventilation
Chemical
7. Fill the branch pipe with the cleaning chemical. The reaction between the deposits and the chemical will start
immediately and the "cooking process" begins.
8. During the treatment, the piping can be knocked to remove the deposits from the pipe walls.
10. After the treatment, flush the piping thoroughly with water starting from the toilets nearest the vertical main pipe.
(If the flushing will be started from the end of horizontal main pipe, there is a risk that the removed deposits will block
the pipe). Occasionally a second treatment may be necessary.
There are speciliazed companies to clean sewage pipes by circulating cleaning chemicals through the piping section.
All components are first disconnected from the section pipe to be cleaned. Piping is filled with water to be sure that
there are no leaks. Chemical circulation hoses are connected to the pipe to be cleaned. Chemical is circulated until
the section pipe is clean. More detailed information is available on request.
When using cleaning chemicals always follow manufacturer’s instructions for safe use chemical and disposal.

Operation
The toilet is flushed by pressing the push button. The water valve opens and lets rinsing water flow into the bowl
through the flushing nozzle. After a short delay, the vacuum acts in discharge valve housing and forces the rubber
diaphragm in discharge valve to open. The contents of the bowl is drained to the vacuum sewer by a pressure
difference between the bowl and vacuum sewer.
The flushing cycle in the control mechanism starts the closing cycle. Atmospheric air pulse enters the discharge
valve, which closes. After a short delay, atmospheric air pulse reaches water valve, which closes and lets a certain
level of water at the bottom in the bowl.
After the flushing cycle has stopped, the push button and system will be ready for next flush.
Start-up
• Clean bottom of the bowl inside.
• Check that the mini-check valve and discharge valve are clean and working correctly.
• Check that the water supply hose and the filter of the water valve are not blocked up.
• Check that sufficient vacuum (-30kPa) is available.
• Open the shut-off valve in the water supply piping.
• Press the toilet push button. Pressing the button starts the flushing sequence. The discharge valve opens and the
contents of the bowl are extracted by vacuum. At the same time the bowl is rinsed by water.
• When the discharge valve has been closed, the water level is restored in the bowl by the closing time delay of the
water valve.

The Evac combined sewage treatment plant consists of an integrated vacuum generator and a biological sewage
treatment plant. In the sewage treatment plant an aerobic process of the biopopulation convert organic substances
existing in waste water to carbon dioxide and water without danger of methane gas production.
All waste water, both black water (toilets, urinals, hospital) and grey water (galley, showers and sinks) can be treated
in the Evac sewage treatment plants. The treatment plant can operate in all vessels which are sailing in salt, brackish
or fresh water areas.
The sewage treatment plants are fully automatic in normal operation and they require low maintenance. See operation
and maintenance instructions.
The Evac marine sewage treatment plants are designed to fulfill the requirements of IMO MARPOL 73/78 Annex IV
and USCG 33 CFR Part 159 for inspected vessels which specifys discharged waste water from sewage treatment
plants. The effluent quality is as follow:
• BOD5 < 50 ppm
• Suspended solids < 50 ppm (tested on shore) or 100 ppm (tested aboard ship)
• Faecal coliforms < 250 pcs/100ml M. P. N.

Black sewage water is collected by an integrated Evac vacuum ejector system or by Evac On-line pump system.
Incoming black water must be diluted with technical, grey or sea water. There is a separate dilution/gravity inlet
connection built in chamber I.
All waste water is led to the aeration chamber I by gravity or vacuum. Bacterial growth is stimulated by oxygen of air.
Required air is produced by the air blower(s) and led to aeration chambers I and II via air distributors. The aerobic
treatment process starts in the aeration chamber I and continues in the aeration chamber II. If treated waste water is
coming from a vacuum toilet system, required dilution water must be added into the aeration chamber I.
An activated sludge is separated in the settling chamber by gravity and clarified water floats to the disinfection
chamber. The activated sludge is pumped back to the aeration chamber I by an air driven ejector(s).
A chlorine based disinfection chemical is added by the dosing pump into the clarified water in the disinfection
chamber to meet IMO’s requirements regarding presence of coliform bacterias in treated water. Treated water is
pumped to sea or ashore by a discharge pump. Disinfection can be also done by UV on special request. Please,
consult Evac.
A mineralized sludge from activation chambers I and II is pumped at given intervals sea, to on shore facilities or to the
vessel’s sludge storing tank. The discharge pump is equipped with an integrated cutting device to prevent blocking.

Additional components
A sewage treatment plant may require additional components for optimal operation, please consult Evac.
Dilution water
Because a combined treatment plant is processing black water from vacuum toilet system, dilution water must be
added into incoming sewage. There are several system options to control and monitor dilution water:
• flow meter and pressurized fresh or technical water
• grey water buffer/holding tank and constant flow pump
• grey water buffer/holding tank and dilution water feeding by gravity with flow meter
Screen or Catcher
If there is a risk that a lot of non organic solids obstacles are entering in the treatment plant, a screen or catcher must
be installed before the treatment plant.
Grease separator
Grease is harmful for treatment process. If there is galley water entering to the treatment unit, a grease separator
must be installed before treatment plant.

Dilution water
Because a combined treatment plant is processing black water from vacuum toilet system, dilution water must be
added into incoming sewage. There are several system options to control and monitor dilution water:
• flow meter and pressurized fresh or technical water
• grey water buffer/holding tank and constant flow pump
• grey water buffer/holding tank and dilution water feeding by gravity with flow meter
Screen or Catcher
If there is a risk that a lot of non organic solids obstacles are entering in the treatment plant, a screen or catcher must
be installed before the treatment plant.
Grease separator
Grease is harmful for treatment process. If there is galley water entering to the treatment unit a grease separator must
be installed before treatment plant.
! NOTE: If there is no counter pressure for the discharge pump, a bend piping arrangement must be done with a pipe
loop (goose neck) over tank's water level to prevent siphoning.

1.3 Settling
Activated sludge is separated in the settling chamber by gravity and clarified water flows to the disinfection
chamber. Activated sludge is pumped back to the aeration chamber I by an air driven ejector pump(s).
Air flow for the sludge ejector is adjusted so that the sludge return from the chamber III is about 1/3 of the pipe section
(See transparent hose above tank). Rest of the air flow produced by the blower(s) is used for aeration and divided
equally between tanks I and II.
Sludge has to be removed frequently from the process to maintain a good biological balance in the sewage treatment
unit. Sludge content in process (in chamber I) must be kept between 100ml/l and 500 ml/l. Sludge is removed by the
discharge pump.

1. 4 Disinfection
Disinfection chemical (e.g. Sodium hypochlorite (NaClO), solution, active chlorine 10%) is added to the clarified water
in the disinfection chamber to meet IMO's requirements regarding presence of coliform bacterias in treated water.
Residual chlorine must be kept between 2 ppm and 5 ppm. Residual chlorine can be adjusted by the dosing pump's
settings and/or timer settings. Treated water can be pumped to sea or ashore by the discharge pump.
Following notes must be paid attention to maintain optimal process conditions and effluent quality.
! NOTE: It will take about one month before effective biomass will overtake the process after first start-up or after
maintenance break. During this bacteria breeding period unit is not working as designed.
! NOTE: Never discharge both aeration chambers totaly at same time. Ensure always that there is bacterical population
left in either chamber I or chamber II to avoid collapse of the biological process.
! NOTE: Amount of the needed dilution water can be calculated. Needed dilution water is 1 x incoming black water
(vacuum system). The amount of black water in vacuum toilet system is 15 l/person/day. A total dilution water need
can be calculated:
Dilution water can be fresh, brackish or technical water. Dilution water is added into aeration chamber I.
! NOTE: Dilution is not needed, if vessel’s grey water is also processed in the treatment plant.
! NOTE: Some antifoaming chemicals has a very high BOD5 value. It is recommended to use antifoaming chemicals
which have low BOD5 value.
! NOTE: All substances which might be harmful to the biological process such as large amounts of grease, acids,
alkalines, etc. are not allowed to be led to treatment unit.

Commercial Marine Equipment OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
COMBINED UNITS
EJECTOR DN80
From pump
Operation
The water ejector consists of a jet tube of stainless steel, a check valve and a nozzle of PVC.
The ejector, powered by the EVAC pump, creates vacuum in the piping. Sewage is pumped from the tank throug the
nozzle of the ejector creating a venturi effect whereby air and waste are inducted from the piping, mixed with the
sewage jet and passed into the collecting tank.
When the pump stops, the rubber flap of the check valve is drawn into the closed position by the vacuum, which is
thereby maintained.
Maintenance
The only moving part in the ejector is a rubber flap in the check valve.
Once a year:
• open and clean ejector check valve

Fig. 1 Knurled
knob
Fig. 2
Operation
The pressure switch or switches and the vacuum gauge should be installed on a separate manifold, to reduce the
chance of impurities entering the switch or gauge (fig. 1). The instrument branch must have 5° slope. Water in the
instrument branch will cause malfunctions.
The switch starts a pump when the vacuum level in the system falls below a preset value. If the vacuum level still
keeps declining, another pump will be started (provided that there is more than one pump in your system). As soon
as the required vacuum level has been reached, the pump(s) will be stopped.
1. Set the stop pressure by turning the knob. As you turn the knob, the indicator on the scale will move. It should be
set between -40kPa and -60kPa (40-60% vacuum). This is the vacuum level at which the pumps will be turned off.
Note that in each system the optimal setting may vary.
2. Set the start pressure by turning the knurled knob, reached by removing the cover of the switch. Turning the knob
will set the starting vacuum level somewhat lower than the “stop”level set by the knob. In effect, whenever the
“stop”level is changed by turning the knob, the starting level will also be changed.
The plant can be provided with a low level pressure switch for low vacuum alarm. Set the “off” pressure to -30kPa.
The setting of the switch(es) may vary from system to system depending on the individual requirements.
The vacuum gauge installed, in each system enables you to check that pressure switches are functioning properly.
Maintenance
Once a year:
• Check the operation of both pressure switch and vacuum gauge.

Maintenance
Every day
• Observe that the treatment unit is oprating normally and there is no alarms displayed.
• Check that sludge flows through the sludge return hose when the air blower is running.
• Check a smell of the unit. If the unit is smelling, it is most probably that aeration is not working and treatment
process has changed to anaerobic. See “Trouble shooting” of the treatment plant.
Every week
• If the chemical dosing system is in use, check the chlorine content in the effluent water regularly. See "Disinfection
and residual chlorine test”.
• Test sludge content in activation chamber I to ensure that mineral sludge content is within acceptable limits. See
"Sludge test and sludge handling" and discharge sludge if needed.
! NOTE: Take a sludge content test at least every week or every time when sludge “SLUDGE ALARM” is displayed.
Reset “SLUDGE ALARM” by pressing control switch S10 “SHUT DOWN RESET, ALARM RESET, LED TEST” for
10s.
Every month
• Check that there is no obstruction in the aeration piping and in the air distributors.
• Check that there is no obstruction in the overflow between the aeration chamber II and the settling chamber.
• Check that there is no obstruction in the overflow between the settling chamber and the disinfection chamber.
• Check that there is no obstruction in the venting line.
• Inspect the tank's external and internal coatings for corrosion. For repairings see additional coating repairing
instructions.
• Check vacuum function.
Every year
• Empty and clean the unit.
! DANGER: Make sure that the unit is well ventilated and there is enough fresh air in the chamber if you have to go
inside to avoid inhaling toxic fumes and suffocation. One person must stay outside of the tank and keep eye on
person who is working inside the unit.
