Troubleshooting and problem finding
INSUFFICIENT CLEANING PERFORMANCE
The main problem with sewage treatment plants is insufficient cleaning performance. This is noticeable
with odorous and dark coloured wastewater. Check the following components when finding this fault:
In all other cases, please contact our service department first,
to clarify the possible source of the fault.
?
• Proper functionality of the macerator pump,
start the pump manually and pump over all 3
tanks individually. No clogging is allowed to be
visible. In the case of a seized pump, switch off
the entire plant immediately (main fuse or main
switch off) and try to turn the maceration pump
at the end of the pump manually clockwise with a
large screwdriver. Remove the rubber cap. If the
clogging cannot be removed, the pump must be
taken apart after disassembly of the hose. Un-
screw the two retaining rings on the valves, open
the hose clamps on the pump and first swing the
entire connector upwards and then remove it.
Then you can open the pump.
•
If the clogging is located in one of the pipes, it can be cleaned with a flexible spring or a piece of tubing. All
solids must be removed from the tanks, otherwise the blockages will appear again.
In particular, unsuita-
ble toilet paper (wet wipes of any kind), hygiene products and wastes can lead to blockages.
• Another reason for inadequate treatment performance is an overload operation. In this case, simply switch
the system to overload, if more people are on board or the toilet needs to be used more often.
• If the cleaning performance still remains poor or if a blockage can be excluded as the cause, add a bag of
bacteria. The use of aggressive toilet cleaners and drugs can damage the bacterial culture in the plant. Be-
fore starting, check that the ventilation pump is working correctly and that the supply lines are connected.
A humming noise must be audible and bubbles must rise inside the plant (open the inspection cover of the
bioreactor tank 2).
The blade of the pump
is very sharp; therefore,
the pump may only
be dismantled when
the power to it is
disconnected.
