APPLICATION

The WCFIX PLUS is used to dispose of
sewage from a directly connected toilet,
even if this lies below the local backflow
level.

∙ The number of people using the toilet

should be small, and an additional
toilet, installed above the backflow
level, must be available for them to
use.

∙ Only domestic wastewater, without

any harmful substances as defined
in EN 12056, may be disposed of.

∙ The unit operates in combination

with a with cistern that supplies a
flush volume of at least six litres.
Proper operation cannot be guaran­teed if the flush volume is less than
six litres. This may be the case if an
economy flush button is used, for ex­ample.

∙ A maximum of one wash basin, one

shower and one bidet can be con­nected in addition to the toilet. All of
the fixtures must be installed in the
same room as the WCFIX PLUS. If
no additional units are to be served,
a flush volume of 9 litres is recom­mended for the toilet.

∙ In accordance with EN 12050-3, the

connection of other appliances, such
as washing machines, kitchen sinks,
dishwashers or bathtubs, is not per­mitted.

When installed correctly and used for
its intended purpose, the unit meets
all the protection requirements of EMC
Directive 2014/30/EU and is suitable for
domestic use and for connection to the
public power supply network.

It is ideal for use in renovation or con­version works in domestic situations
where the installation of a toilet would
be desirable. The unit pumps the sew­age and toilet paper from the toilet into
an existing foul water drainage pipe.
When installed below the backflow lev­el, the unit also provides backflow pro­tection. This requires the installation of
a vertical backflow prevention loop in
the pressure pipe.

ATTENTION!

∙ The unit must never be used for the

disposal of hygiene articles, paper
towels, moist toilet tissues, left-over
food, solvents, chemicals, grease
etc.

∙ The flow velocity in the pressure pipe

must be at least 0.7 m/s.

∙ The operating limit with regard to

manometric head is 0.6 bar (6.0 m
head).

Permissible temperature of the pumped
fluid: 35°C, operating mode: intermit­tent operation S3, 30% (3 minutes oper­ation – 7 minutes rest)

When installing the system in
bathrooms or shower rooms,
German VDE regulation 0100

Part 701 must be observed.
The WCFIX PLUS is frost resistant

down to a temperature of –20 °C when
stored in dry conditions. Once the unit
is installed, however, the residual wa­ter in the system must not be allowed
to freeze.

ELECTRICAL
CONNECTION

Only qualified electricians may
carry out electrical works to
the pump, connector plugs or

controls.
ATTENTION! Never put the mains plug

into water! If water gets into the plug,
this can cause malfunctions or damage.

The relevant standards (such as EN
standards), country-specific regulations
(such as VDE in Germany), and the reg­ulations of the local power supply com­panies must be observed.

Observe the operating voltage (see the
type plate)!

Only connect the pump to
sockets that have been in-

stalled properly in accordance
with the regulations and are fitted with
at least a 10 A (delay) fuse and a residu­al-current circuit breaker (≤ 30 mA).
No additional motor protection is re­quired, since the system has an inte­grated coil thermostat.

Unacceptably high temperatures and
long periods of continuous operation
cause the thermostat to shut down the
motor.

After the thermostat has

switched off the system, you

must pull out the mains plug
before remedying the fault, because the
device switches itself on again automat­ically.

System controls

The WCFIX PLUS has a level controller
that switches the pump on and off de­pending on the level of the water.

The start-up delay and shut-off delay
are set via DIP switches on the control
circuit board.

The mains-dependent alarm sounds to
indicate a malfunction if the pumping
operation continues for longer than 43
seconds. A potential-free fault indicator
contact (5 A/250 V) on the circuit board
can be used to relay the alarm.

INSTALLATION

For front-wall installations

If the toilet is wall-mounted, the WCFIX
PLUS is installed immediately adjacent
to the toilet module. The unit is con­nected to the outlet bend of the front­wall installation via a 15º bend with a
nominal diameter (DN) of 100 mm and
high temperature resistance (HT). The
WCFIX PLUS can be installed to the left
or right of the toilet.

For free-standing toilets

The WCFIX PLUS is fitted directly to
standard toilets (complying with DIN
1387 or 1388) with a horizontal out­let. The vertical distance between the
mounting surface and the centre of the
outlet branch must be at least 180 mm.

ATTENTION! If a connecting pipe is fit­ted between the WCFIX and the toilet,
this will result in malfunctions. This
method of installation does not comply
with the approval of the Deutsches In­stitut für Bautechnik (the German ap­proval body for construction products
and types of construction).

The distance between the wall and the
end of the connection branch of the
toilet must be at least 220 mm if the
WCFIX PLUS is to be installed without
moving the toilet.

ATTENTION! The connection pipes from
the shower and washbasin must be fit­ted with a so-called back-up bend, in-

11

ENGLISH

stalled as close to the unit as possible.
The pipe invert of this bend must be at
a height of at least 75 mm above the
mounting surface on which the unit is
fixed. Air pockets in the connecting pipe
can cause run-off problems and the wa­ter could back up. To prevent back-ups,
the inlet pipe from the shower must be
vented at its highest point. The ventila­tion pipe can be connected into the tank
ventilation.

When installing a shower, the priority
valve supplied with the unit must be in­serted into the corresponding connec­tion port.

Note. We recommend installing a shut­off valve after the check valve in the
pressure pipe. This allows the check
valve to be serviced easily.

In the case of front-wall installations,
the WCFIX PLUS should be installed be­fore the panelling is fixed to the frame.
This makes it easier to install the unit
and to check the connections.

Instructions regarding ventilation of
the tank

ATTENTION!The tank ventilation is es-

sential for proper operation of the sys­tem and must be fed out through the
front-wall panel. A pipe with a nomi­nal diameter of 40 mm and high tem­perature resistance (not supplied) can
be used to connect the system to the
ventilation insert (supplied) or to a roof
vent. This connection pipe ensures that
no damp air can escape from the tank
into the room in which the WCFIX PLUS
is installed, where it could otherwise
cause hidden moisture-related damage
or mould growth. An activated carbon
filter is supplied with the unit to mini­mise unpleasant odours. The protec­tive film must be removed before use.
The filter can be replaced and serviced
from outside via the ventilation grille.
The ventilation insert can be fixed into
the front wall at the top, the side or the
front of the wall, if required. However, it
must be installed above the height of all
of the fixtures that are connected to the
WCFIX PLUS.

If the WCFIX PLUS is not installed be­hind a front wall, an activated carbon
filter can be fitted at the tank.

ATTENTION! Activated carbon filters
reduce unpleasant odours, whereas a
roof vent prevents them.

A hole 76 mm in diameter must be
drilled for the installation of the venti­lation system.

Cross-section through the finished wall
where the ventilation insert is installed.
If the system is ventilated via a roof vent,
then the ventilation insert and activated
carbon filter are not required.

Instructions regarding the modules
for front-wall installation

The WCFIX PLUS is compatible with all
commercially available front-wall in­stallation systems that have a footprint
depth of at least 18 cm.

ATTENTION! A maintenance hatch
opening measuring at least 60 x 45 cm
must be created. An installation kit for
integrating a frameless, tiled mainte­nance hatch cover can be ordered sepa­rately, as an accessory (JP41075).

Mounting

Before commencing work, check the
contents of the package and the condi­tions that need to be taken into account
at the installation site. The inlet pipes
and the pressure pipe must be installed
in advance in the room where the unit is
to be installed.

Fitting the connection pipes

Fit the toilet connector into the desired
inlet opening. Make sure that the seal­ing lip is fitted properly in the tank.

For the other inlets, remove the stopper
and then use DN 50 plug-in seals or, in
the case of front-wall installations, use
the connection sleeves with hose clips.

ATTENTION! When installing a shower,
the priority valve supplied with the unit
must be inserted into the corresponding
connection port.

Before fitting the priority valve, lubricate
the seal area with petroleum jelly. Then
insert the valve into the open inlet port,
making sure that it locks properly into
place. Check that the valve flap works
properly.

Seal the unused toilet inlet port

Insert the sealing ring into the unused
toilet inlet port, making sure that that
the sealing lip is fitted properly in the
tank. Then grease the seal and close
the opening by fitting the cover.

Leakage test prior to installation

Installation

Push the WCFIX PLUS with the toilet
connector onto the toilet connection
branch or, in the case of front-wall in­stallations, onto the outlet pipe. Make
sure that the connections are fitted
properly.
