Operation
The vitreous china bowl and tank direct the flushing water flow, and
house the Pressure Lite system.
The vessel contains the complete operating cartridge assembly, and is
the container for the pressurized 1.4 gallons (5.3 L) (FM3 models) or
1.1 gallons (4.2 L) (FM4 models) of water used for each flush.
The control components consist of the pressure regulator and the air
inducer. These components work with the incoming, pressurized,
supply-line water to provide a regulated pressure flush to the toilet
bowl.
A complete flush cycle is two separate functions.
When the trip lever is operated, the vessel plunger assembly is
pressed, allowing pressurized water to be directed to the bowl for
complete flushing action. As the water level in the vessel drops the
plunger will close, stopping water flow to the bowl.
A checkpoint built into the vessel assembly allows any discharge of
water into the vitreous china tank to drain directly into the bowl.
After flushing, a charge cycle takes place. Supply line water flows into
