Page 5: Introduction / General Information
INTRODUCTION The Silent Venus macerator is a residential pumping system for toilet and other bathroom fixtures. The tank collects sewage from toilets, showers, and bathtubs via the simple principle of gravity. A built-in pressure switch detects the incoming waste and starts a pump combined with cutting blades. This pump works in tandem with several cutting blades to convert the sewage into a fluid form which can be easily pumped into drains via small-diameter pipes. -
Page 6: Standard Operation
STANDARD OPERATION In order to function, The Silent Venus unit consists of three major parts: o The container, which securely houses the operating mechanism o A pressure chamber, which activates and deactivates the pump o The induction motor, which drives the cutting blade and the impeller For effective use, the macerating unit should be connected to a rear spigot outlet toilet via the toilet’s outlet on the wall, and the waste collected should be discharged into a... -
Page 7: Electrical Requirements
For users wanting to pump in both vertical and horizontal directions, the following calculations should be used: • 3 feet of a vertical lift is roughly equivalent to 30 feet of a horizontal run • A bend or change in direction would result in some losses which must be deducted from the overall discharge performance. -
Page 8: Sanitary Inlets
SANITARY INLETS In addition to the large inlet on the front of the unit that's designed for a toilet, the macerating unit is equipped with two additional 2" inlets, one on either side of the case. The macerating unit is connected to the drainpipes of sanitary fittings in the toilet and bathroom via two inlets. -
Page 9: Sewer Pipe Connection
SEWER PIPE CONNECTION Using a 1 1/2-inch branch hub, install a standard wye fitting connecting the discharge pipe to a sewer pipe. If the discharge pipe is made of copper, purchase a brass male adapter ((MPT x Hub) 3/4" x 3/4" sweat) for the subsequent steps. If it is a CPVC pipe, then a CPVC male adapter ((MPT x Hub) 3/4"... -
Page 10: Pre-Installation Tips
PRE-INSTALLATION TIPS GRAVITY FALL The unit accepts wastewater by gravity; it does not “vacuum” in water. All inlet pipe work must have a positive gravity fall, (1/4" per foot). All horizontal piping from the macerating unit must also have a positive gravity fall to allow free drainage when the pump stops. - Page 11 PIPE WORK All pipe work should be either copper, PVC or CPVC (Do not use flexible pipes). Hangers should not be less than three feet apart to prevent pipe rattling. DISCHARGE Never discharge directly into an open drain, fixture, manhole or rainwater drainpipe.

Page 12: Placement Options
AVOID DIRECT FALL Where the point of discharge into the soil stack is significantly lower than the base of the unit, a vacuum relief valve may need to be fitted at the highest point in the pipe run in order to avoid siphonage of the water seal. - Page 14 � Silent Venus PERFORMANCE "" feet I pieds -· )'._ & feet I pieds 15 n-..x � 12 ..� i ··· ·rr · · · · u :::, 3 ..I/min � 240 2703 US gallon/min 00 feet pieds FLOW RATE (DEBIT) FERME...
