The Vacuum Breaker (Product code: 16833) is a component used in Thetford cassette toilets, specifically in models C200, C250, C260, C400, and C500. Here's what this part does:
1. Prevents Backflow of Waste:
The primary function of the vacuum breaker is to prevent the backflow of waste or contaminated water from the holding tank back into the freshwater system. This is crucial for maintaining the hygiene and safety of the toilet system, ensuring that waste cannot contaminate the clean water supply.
2. Maintains Air Pressure Balance:
The vacuum breaker helps maintain the correct air pressure balance within the toilet's plumbing system. It allows air to enter the system as water is flushed, preventing the formation of a vacuum that could impede the flow of water or cause the system to malfunction.
3. Ensures Proper Flushing:
By preventing a vacuum from forming, the vacuum breaker ensures that the toilet flushes properly. It allows the water to flow smoothly from the freshwater tank into the bowl, enabling effective flushing and waste removal.
4. Protects the Freshwater System:
The vacuum breaker acts as a protective barrier between the waste holding tank and the freshwater system. It ensures that there is no direct connection that could allow waste or odors to travel back into the clean water supply, thus protecting the overall sanitation of the system.
5. Durable and Reliable:
Made from durable materials, the vacuum breaker is designed to withstand the conditions within the toilet system, including exposure to water, waste, and cleaning chemicals. It is built to provide reliable service over time.
6. Replacement Part:
The vacuum breaker can wear out or become less effective over time, especially if exposed to harsh conditions or if it’s not maintained properly. Replacing it with a new one (16833) ensures that the toilet system continues to function correctly and safely.
7. Easy Installation:
The vacuum breaker is typically designed for easy installation, allowing users or technicians to replace the part without extensive tools or expertise. It is an essential maintenance component for ensuring the proper operation of the toilet system.
8. Compatibility:
This vacuum breaker is compatible with multiple Thetford cassette toilet models, including the C200, C250, C260, C400, and C500. This broad compatibility ensures that it can be used in a wide range of Thetford toilet systems.
Vacuum Breaker (16833) is a crucial component that prevents backflow, maintains air pressure balance, and ensures proper flushing in Thetford C200, C250, C260, C400, and C500 cassette toilets. It protects the freshwater system from contamination and helps maintain the overall hygiene and functionality of the toilet system. Replacing a faulty vacuum breaker is essential for the continued safe and effective operation of the toilet.
What is Lorem Ipsum?
Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
Why do we use it?
It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for 'lorem ipsum' will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).
