The Thetford Float Arm (Product code: 21322) is a component designed for use in Thetford C2, C3, and C4 cassette toilets. Here's what this part does:
1. Monitors Waste Tank Level:
- The float arm is attached to a float inside the waste holding tank of the Thetford C2, C3, and C4 portable toilets. As the waste tank fills, the float rises, and the float arm tracks this movement, providing a way to monitor the level of waste in the tank.
2. Triggers Waste Level Indicator:
- As the float arm rises with the waste level, it interacts with a sensor or switch that triggers the waste level indicator on the toilet's control panel. This indicator notifies the user when the waste tank is nearing its full capacity and needs to be emptied.
3. Prevents Overfilling:
- By triggering the waste level indicator, the float arm helps prevent overfilling of the waste tank. Overfilling can lead to leaks, unpleasant odors, and potential damage to the toilet system, so the float arm plays a crucial role in ensuring timely emptying of the tank.
4. Ensures Accurate Monitoring:
- The proper functioning of the float arm is essential for accurate waste level readings. A malfunctioning or damaged float arm could give false readings, potentially leading to overfilling or unnecessary emptying of the waste tank.
5. Replacement Part:
- Over time, the float arm may wear out, become damaged, or lose its accuracy due to continuous use. Replacing the float arm (21322) restores the waste level monitoring system, ensuring the toilet continues to provide reliable alerts when the tank is full.
6. Easy Installation:
- The float arm is designed for easy installation within the waste holding tank, allowing users or technicians to replace it with minimal effort.
7. Compatibility:
- This float arm is specifically designed for use in Thetford C2, C3, and C4 portable toilets, ensuring it fits and functions correctly within these models.
