The Thetford Float Arm for C200 (Product code: 23726) is a crucial component of the waste holding tank system in the Thetford C200 cassette toilets. Here’s what this part does:
1. Monitors Waste Level:
- The float arm is connected to a float inside the holding tank. As the waste level in the tank rises, the float moves upward. The float arm is designed to track this movement, providing an accurate measure of how full the waste tank is.
2. Activates the Tank Level Indicator:
- As the float rises, the float arm triggers a reed switch or another sensor mechanism, which then sends a signal to the toilet’s control panel. This signal usually activates a level indicator light, alerting the user that the waste holding tank is reaching its capacity and needs to be emptied soon.
3. Prevents Overfilling:
- By accurately tracking the level of waste in the tank, the float arm helps prevent overfilling, which could lead to leaks, unpleasant odors, and potential damage to the toilet system. The timely alert provided by the level indicator allows users to empty the tank before it overflows.
4. Ensures Accurate Readings:
- The proper functioning of the float arm is essential for getting accurate readings of the waste level in the holding tank. If the float arm is damaged or misaligned, it could result in incorrect level readings, which might lead to overfilling or unnecessary emptying of the tank.
5. Replacement Part:
- The float arm can wear out or become damaged over time, especially in environments where the toilet is heavily used. Replacing a faulty float arm with this part (23726) ensures that the waste level monitoring system continues to function correctly.
6. Essential for Maintenance:
- Maintaining a working float arm is crucial for the overall maintenance and hygiene of the toilet system. It allows users to manage the waste tank effectively, ensuring that the system remains operational and clean.
The Thetford Float Arm for C200 (23726) is an essential component that monitors the level of waste in the holding tank of the Thetford C200 cassette toilets. It works in conjunction with a float to trigger the tank level indicator, helping to prevent overfilling and ensuring that the toilet system operates efficiently and hygienically.
