Title: New toilet
Post by: Timkar on July 02, 2014, 06:16:27 PM
Just wondering if anyone has used or is familiar with the five oceans marine toilet? My Microphor isn't working and the part I need
(air/water sequencing valve plus some fittings)costs one and one-half times what this complete unit costs.
If you are familiar with them are they a rear or side discharge?
I have a couple of "plop and drop" type stored in the shop but they won't work in the space I have in the coach.
TIA...Tim

If the Microphor is a air flush it is probably not setting directly over the tank the air pushes the flush through a smaller pipe

This one is a mascerater with a pump, 3/4 inch water inlet and (either) 1 1/2" or 2" outlet, the pump sits in the box molded into the back of the terlet.

I saw the drawings but cannot find any info as to where the discharge is? bottom, side, etc. Have tried to contact vendor but
thinking they may be taking a long "4th' holiday. The Microphor is a rear discharge to a 1 1/2" pipe and that part works, but the
flush does not shut off. The plastic air sequencing valve is cracked and new piece of "plastic" is $345. Also would need rebuild kits
for the other valves which as another $140.....

click the link, the toilet is designed to pump sea water, it's pump is designed to suck sea water and discharge poop to sea or to a holding tank, the installation configurations are pretty well illustrated in the link, although rudimentary drawings.
