The Sanivite is a gray water discharge pump
that's ideally suited for use in a basement
apartment. It will pump waste water away
from a variety of sources, such as a kitchen
sink, laundry sink, clothes washer (indirect
via laundry tub only), dishwasher, bar sink,
etc., etc.
The inside of the Sanivite is comprised of
a pressure chamber, which starts and stops
the unit, and the motor, which drives the
pump.
When water enters the Sanivite a microswitch
in the pressure chamber is activated, which
in turn starts the motor. The motor is sealed
for life in an oil filled enclosure. A spindle
drives the impeller, the moving parts therefore
are kept to an absolute minimum. Water and
organic waste matter, enter the chamber and
are pumped away into the sanitary sewer.
The pump operates at 10 PSI and pumps the
waste upwards to 12 feet and/or 150 feet
horizontally. Once the water is discharged
and the water level in the container goes
down, the microswitch deactivates the unit
until water enters the unit again. A normal
operating cycle for Sanivite can be as short
as 2-10 seconds depending upon the discharge
pipe run configuration, power consumption
is therefore minimal.
In addition to sinks, Sanivitewill also accept
and discharge the waste water from a variety
of other sanitary fixtures, such as; a hand
basin, a shower, a bath, a urinal and possibly
a whirlpool. When adding a shower or bathtub,
a base will have to be constructed, made
out of 2" x 6" on edge, to allow
for the installation of a P-trap and some
gravity flow towards the pump unit, as it
does not suck in water.
The waste water from other sanitary fixtures
is discharged into Sanivite via two 1 1/4-inch
inlets, on either side of the housing. Either
one or both inlets can be used as required.
The discharge elbow on top of the Sanivite
can be turned either to the left or to the
right, depending on the discharge installation.
The Sanivite may be vented, there is a 1
1⁄2-inch connection on the top of the
unit. The discharge pipe size may be made
from 1-inch material.
The Sanivite is small enough to fit comfortably
inside a kitchen cabinet or vanity or inside
the overhang of a whirlpool. Electrical supply
to the Sanivite is 120V, 15 Amp. The system
should be connected to a Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter circuit.
