INTRODUCTION
The Lectra/San EC is a U.S. Coast Guard Certified
Type I Marine Sanitation Device for uninspected
vessels less than 65 feet in length. Lectra/San EC
accommodates most marine toilets. It can be used
with one or two toilets (see page 10). It is designed
and approved to treat waste for overboard discharge
in areas that are not declared a No-Discharge zone by
the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. The
total system is made up of three basic parts:
The Control Indicator Panel - Begins the treatment
cycle and can also be connected to flush an electric
toilet at the same time (single toilet application).
Dimensions: 4 1/2"H x 2 3/4"W x 1"D
The Treatment Tank - Consists of two chambers
and an electrode pack that temporarily converts
salt water into a powerful bactericide for the
duration of the treatment cycle. The top of the tank
contains the control module and its protective cover.
Dimensions: 16"W x 8 3/4"D x 13 1/2"H
Salt Feed Tank - Necessary to supply a saturated
salt solution when not operating in water of ocean
salinity. Dimensions: 9"W x 9"D x 7"H
Additional parts included: 1 1/2" hose adapters
(2), 1 1/2" NPT Intake Plug, 90
°

control indicator panel and the "U.S.C.G. Type I
Equipped" label MUST be in a visible location.
OPERATION

NOTE: Toilet must not exceed 1.5 gallons of
waste water during any total flush cycle.
1. If your toilet is electrically connected with the
Lectra/San EC (see Figs. 9 and 9A), it will flush
automatically. You may flush the toilet as
necessary at 10 second intervals within the first
40 seconds (duration of the FLUSH cycle).
