SANIMARIN Delivers Quiet, Efficient, Reliable Plumbing Solutions for Every Boat Owner

EDISON, NEW JERSEY (MAY 18, 2010)—The versatile line of SANIMARIN upflush toilets from SFA Saniflo Inc. combines comfort, efficiency and reliability while eliminating the excessive noise associated with vacuum-operated or hand-pump units. Three models, all specially designed for marine applications, feature an easy-to-operate, push-button control panel with no bothersome hand-pumping required.

Installation can be adapted to suit any plumbing configuration and all types of boats. SANIMARIN models operate with either an on-board, pressurized, freshwater system; or with a raw-water system that requires a separate seawater pump.

How the system operates: SANIMARIN toilets combine a macerating pump and an electronically activated toilet into a single, compact package:

1. At the touch of a button on the control panel, waste is flushed down from the bowl into the macerating area situated below.
2. This area contains both a pump and a macerator. The latter is a turbine with stainless steel blades that swiftly grind the waste matter into fine particles in three to six seconds.
3. This matter is simultaneously pumped through a standard 1½-inch plastic pipe into a blackwater holding tank, which may be located above or below sea level, for eventual discharge. Thanks to their 10-foot pumping height and powerful horizontal pumping distance of 98 feet, SANIMARIN upflush toilets enable boat owners to locate the blackwater tank (or purification system) wherever desired on board.
4. Once the toilet bowl is completely emptied, the unit’s s-bend fills with water again. The water level in the bowl adjusts automatically at the end of each flush cycle to eliminate all risk of odors.

Three distinct choices: Offered in white or bone, all three SANIMARIN models deliver dependable performance for professional and pleasure boaters alike.

• SANIMARIN 31C: Available in 12 and 24 volts, the compact and lightweight SANIMARIN 31C efficiently replaces toilets with manual pumps. The smallest toilet on the marine market (14.6 inches W x 12.2 inches H x 17 inches D), it easily integrates into even tight spaces. Its control panel has two settings: 1) “Add Water,” the bowl-flush command; and 2) “Pump Out,” the macerate-and-empty command.


• SANIMARIN 35: Available in 12, 24 or 110 volts, this model offers contemporary styling with flowing lines that allow it to fit neatly into curved hulls.


• SANIMARIN 48: The sturdy and comfortable SANIMARIN 48 provides an ideal compromise between comfort and practicality and replicates the comfort of a traditional toilet.

The SANIMARIN 35 AND 48 models use the same Control Console, available with a white or black faceplate and featuring separate indicator lights for “Power On” and “Tank Full.” The latter shows that the holding tank is at capacity.

Both models also incorporate a dual-flush mechanism that sends only a small quantity of water to the holding tank: 0.31 gallons of water for the economical (“Eco”) cycle and 0.58 gallons for the normal cycle. The latter is adjustable to 0.79 gallons.
