What is important to check if the blackwater tank has been overfilled?
At some point it has accidentally happened to us that the black water tank has been overfilled.
If we overlook some points to review, it can be expensive. !It is not a joke! ,
Let's review the following points of the installation:
- Tank connection joints,
- Ventilation hose
- Ventilation filter
- Level sensors
- Extraction hose to deck inlet
We at Dahlberg think that the following detail of typical breakdowns might be of interest:
SYMPTOM | PROBLEM | SOLUTION |
Tank discharges through some joint, | Dirt and bad smells | Empty the tank, fill it with water from the deck inlet, add a product to clean and disinfect it. |
Clogged vent hose and connection | The discharge pump overheats and cannot pump the waste and empty the tank | Disconnect the vent hose. Clean the tank outlet connection and hose |
The ventilation filter has become wet or filled with dirt | The activated carbon in the filter has become wet and bad odors from the tank pass through it. | Replace the filter |
Dirty fill level sensors | They do not indicate level | Remove the sensors from the tank and clean thoroughly, using a product containing descaler. |
