Sanicompact 48 - One Piece Toilet with Macerator Built Into the Base 18-3/4in Depth - 023
The little brother of the Saniplus , this is a smaller version in the Saniflo line of toilets. But don’t let its small size fool you. This is a bathroom appliance that can solve big, plumbing problems. The Sanicompact is a self-contained toilet that’s ideal for fitting into tight spots where conventional toilets can’t go. Requiring just 1.1 U.S gal. (4 litres) of water per flush, the Sanicompact is a miser with water.
The Sanicompact comes with the following: toilet bowl that incorporates the macerating unit and toilet seat.
This toilet was created for situations where there is not enough space. As a toilet that uses a minimum amount of water. As a toilet for use with people that have physical limitations.
4 litres (1.1 gallon) of water per flush.
No external water tank as the flushing mechanism is built in and is totally electric. One press of pneumatic button on top of the bowl, this activates a timer and a solenoid valve in order to fill and wash the sides of the bowl. The motor starts and the waste and paper are sucked inside, where it is macerated and pumped away. The motor stops after approximately 15 seconds and the timer programs the refill of the bowl with fresh water.
The discharge pipe of the Sanicompact is 1 inch in diameter, the pump operates at 7 PSI and pumps the effluent upwards to 9 feet and/or 100 feet horizontally. The discharge pipe-work may be made with either copper or solvent welded plastic material, provided that a consistent gravity fall of 2% is maintained throughout the run.
At the soil-stack end of the pipe run the small-bore pipe-work must be connected to the waste by means of an appropriate TY fitting. Electrical supply to the Sanicompact is 120V, 15 Amp. The system should be connected to a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter circuit.

What is a Macerator?
To "macerate" is to soften, to break in pieces. Our Saniflo macerating systems use a rotating cutting blade to liquefy human waste and toilet paper. When mixed with flushing water the waste is pumped into a sanitary sewer as a fine slurry.
Installing a bathroom where you want is often difficult and sometimes even impossible. The main drainpipe is either too far away, or the new bathroom or sink will be lower than the drainpipe, making conventional installation unworkable. So what you need is the Saniflo up flush toilet and macerating pump that requires minimal construction work.
Saniflo’s macerator units solve these problems, because they can grind and pump waste over a distance of 150 feet and up to a height of 18 feet. These systems automatically activate when required to reduce effluent to a slurry and pump it away to the soil stack, septic tank or sewer through small diameter discharge pipes. And here is how it works.
1. The toilet is flushed and the effluent is discharged by gravity through the rear spigot and into the macerator device. The effluent rises to a preset level, a micro-switch in the pressure chamber of the macerating device is activated.
2. Simple flapper style check valves on each of the side inlets close momentarily, while the blades inside rotate at 3,600 revolutions per minute and reduce any solids within the effluent into liquid, in about 3 or 4 seconds.
3. All waste is pumped into a sanitary gravity drain (a soil stack or a septic tank) through a standard pipe just ¾" or 1" in diameter. Once the liquid effluent is completely pumped out of the macerator, the micro-switch deactivates.
4. A non-return valve in the macerating unit prevents back-flow of the reduced effluent into the unit. The toilet refills with water. The macerator is now empty (apart from the water seal) and the system is ready for use again.
NOTE: Toilet flush is given priority if another appliance is simultaneously discharged until the effluent from the toilet is sufficiently reduced, so that pressure switch is deactivated.
