Parts:
ththSUITABLE FOR USE.
FL35 used in a R.V. open flow is 12.5 litres per minute, choked to 7 litres per minute. The
FL35 is NOT suitable for a 6 -5.5 litres per minute Gas Geyser. The FL30 @ 7 –4.5-5 litres
per minute would be the correct pump.
Pro Pumps used in Mobile Toilets
The FL40 ‘s flow is too high for the ball valves at 17 - 11 litres per minute and only suitable
if used with a float switch. The best pump for Mobile Toilet Application would be the FL35
VITON
Causes for Failures
1. Leaks on the system will cause the pump to cycle. The Pressure Switch will
fail Examples: poor connection, Gardenia fittings, Ball valve not shutting off properly.
2. Low voltage will allow pump to run continuously and not reach the cut off pressure of 2.4
bar, this will cause the motor to burn out eventually.
3. Application in mobile toilets; the VITON pumps will stand the best chance against
chemical attack. Beware of inconsistent Formaldehyde strengths (i.e. toilets placed far from
sight will receive a stronger solution.)

application of our Waterhouse Pumps.
