520 Express Series
5-21
Hot Water Heater
The hot water tank is equipped with a high
pressure relief valve for safety, and a
thermostat that regulates the heater to a
specific water temperature. The thermostat
is adjustable to suit individual taste. The
electric hot water heater is operated by
turning ON the WATER HEATER breaker
switch located on the AC panel. The electric
hot water heater provides fast recovery, and
is capable of reheating a tank quite rapidly.

CAUTION
DO NOT turn the hot water switch
on unless the fresh water system is
charged. Damage to the heating
element will result if allowed to heat
up with no water in the system.
The hot water tank also operates via a heat
exchanger. Heated cooling water from the
engines is delivered to a heat exchanger
which in turn heats the water in the hot water
tank. After the cooling water circulates
through the exchanger, it is returned to the
engine exhaust system which dumps it
overboard.
HEAD AND WASTE
CONTAMINANT SYSTEM
Your 520 Express Series is equipped with a
head and waste system that uses pumps
with holding tanks.
The head on your yacht has the VacuFlush
operating system which draws water in
through the fresh water system and flushes
waste water from the marine toilet. The toilet
pumps the waste water into a holding tank.
Waste Holding Tank
Waste is pumped from the head through a
sanitary waste hose to the top portion of the
holding tanks. A 1-1/2" sanitary waste hose
is attached to the bottom of each tank and
runs to the fore and aft dockside pumpout
plate on the port side of the deck
walkaround. An overboard vent keeps the
tank at atmospheric pressure regardless of
waste levels.
All the components which comprise the
waste system are made of materials
specially formulated to prevent odor
permeation and to resist chemical actions. It
is strongly recommended that you regularly
add chemical to your tank by flushing it
through the head. The chemical helps to
control odor and break down the waste.
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions on
the chemical before using.

CAUTION
DO NOT flush into a full holding
tank. Attempting to flush the head
when the tank is full could result in
damage to the waste system.
A waste tank indicator is also installed to
provide a visual indication of the amount of
waste in the tank. The indicator is located at
the AC/DC panel.
Waste Disposal
DOCKSIDE PUMPOUT
This system directs all waste to the holding
tanks. To clear the tanks of waste water, you
will need to use the dockside pumpout
services provided at marinas.
To clear the tanks of waste, hook a suction
hose to the pumpout plates on the port walk
around of the yacht and to the dockside
pump. The marina will handle the proper
disposal of the waste.
