Description
Raritan Smart Toilet Control Circuit Board | Boat Supply Store
Marine sanitation systems demand precise control and efficient water management, particularly in offshore cruising environments where resource conservation is paramount. The Raritan Smart Toilet Control (STC) integrates advanced programmable flush timing, allowing for automated initial fill, discharge, and final fill sequences, significantly optimizing water usage per flush. This unit features dedicated 8-second timed buttons for water-only and empty functions, alongside an optional wired panel providing real-time holding tank full status, which automatically disables normal and water-saver buttons when capacity is reached.

Common Concerns Answered
I'm concerned about the complexity of advanced programming settings.
While advanced programming offers granular control, the Raritan Smart Toilet Control (STC) is designed with user-friendly dedicated buttons for common functions like water-only and empty, ensuring straightforward operation for daily use. The manual provides detailed guidance for advanced configuration when desired.
Is wiring this unit difficult or prone to errors?
Proper wiring is critical for optimal performance. The STC includes reverse polarity protection to safeguard against incorrect connections. Careful adherence to the provided installation manual, especially regarding electrical connections to the toilet's motor and water inlet, is recommended for a secure and functional setup.
Will this unit automatically disable functions if my holding tank is full?
Yes, the optional wired panel for the holding tank full status indicator will disable the normal and water-saver flushing buttons when the tank is full, preventing over-filling while still allowing the use of the water-only and empty functions.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the Raritan Smart Toilet Control (STC) optimize water usage?
The STC optimizes water usage through its programmable flush timing, allowing precise control over the amount of water used for the initial fill, discharge, and final rinse cycles, and by offering a water-saver button that initiates a reduced flush.
What are the programmable flush timing options for the STC?
The programmable flush timing options include settings for the initial fill cycle, the discharge cycle, and the final fill cycle, allowing customization for efficient water consumption.
How does the holding tank full status indicator work?
The optional wired panel connects to a sensor (sold separately or integrated) that detects when the holding tank is nearing capacity. Upon detection, it displays a 'full' status and electronically disables the normal and water-saver flush buttons to prevent overflow, while still permitting manual water-only or empty functions.
What happens if the STC is connected with reverse polarity?
The Raritan Smart Toilet Control (STC) is equipped with reverse polarity protection, which means it is designed to prevent damage to the control board if the power supply is accidentally connected incorrectly.
Can the water-only and empty buttons be used independently of the flush cycle?
Yes, the dedicated water-only and empty-only buttons on the Raritan Smart Toilet Control (STC) can be used independently to provide a measured amount of water or to initiate a discharge cycle for a limited duration, each with an 8-second time limit.
