Flexible and reliable sanitary systems for special vessels
Crew around the world appreciate the reliability and high standard of our sanitary systems. The simplicity of a Jets® vacuum system provides trouble-free operation and comfortable sailing. Its inherent flexibility also gives you greater freedom in your design choices.
- Flexible pumping
- Tailored to your needs
- Easy installation
When the sea is your workplace, it is vital that every onboard system is robust and reliable
An extremely flexible system
Low water consumption, smaller pipes and easy installation. With flexible plumbing, it is plain sailing to fit a smart sanitary solution on board.
Vacuum sanitary systems require significantly smaller diameter waste pipes and their non-reliance on gravity means they can flush in any direction - even upwards.
This offers greater flexibility with regard to where the toilet is positioned on board. Furthermore, the waste water from the shower and washbasin can be integrated into the same system.
With easy installation, operation and maintenance, the Jets® vacuum sanitary system is the perfect choice for all types of craft boats.

Vacuumarator® pump
Black and grey water is led to the Vacuumarator® pump and then on to a holding tank or a sewage treatment plant.
The Vacuumarator® pump is the heart of our system. It generates vacuum efficiently while using very little energy.
Sewage treatment plant
Holding tanks and treatment plants are available in different dimensions according to your need.
A smarter solution
Vacuum toilets have a number of advantages over traditional water-flushing toilets, as they use air instead of water to transport sewage.
The plumbing is more flexible as you no longer have to depend on gravity for the toilets to work properly. The vacuum system can lift waste water vertically and uses compact 50 mm pipes, saving 80% space compared to traditional 110 mm pipes. Definitely a smarter solution thanks to our strong and reliable Vacuumarator® pump.

Find representativeVOD™: Vacuum On Demand
This system is perfect for up to 4 toilets and/or grey water interface units. In a VOD™ system vacuum is only generated when a toilet is flushed (Vacuum On Demand). This approach results in a system with simple and cost efficient operation - easy to install and easy to maintain.
CVS™: Constant Vacuum System
In a Constant Vacuum System, vacuum is maintained in the piping at all times. The Vacuumarator® pump starts and stops automaticallly, activated by the vacuum level in the piping via a pressure sensor. Suitable for installations with more than 4 toilets and/or grey water interface units.
