Introduction
The SR models are self-contained waterless toilets that use
an incineration process to reduce waste into sterile ash.
These models are extremely efficient and leave a very
minimal amount of ash that only needs to be emptied
periodically (depending on usage). They require minimal
effort to install, very little maintenance, and feature an
aesthetically pleasing design. Due to its unique features, it
can be used virtually anywhere. The SR toilets are perfect
for areas where plumbing connections or sewage systems
are unavailable (i.e. cabins, work shops, construction sites,
camp grounds, fishing and hunting camps etc.) or as a
replacement for the traditional porta potties.
The SR toilets are available in various sizes, and colors; they
also differ in burning capacity and what type of fuel they
use. The SR5 models use Propane and are our smallest
models (capacity wise) that are ideal where the usage is
small. SR12 models are built to handle a higher capacity
environment and are available in Propane, Natural Gas,
and Diesel.
How the toilet works
The only requirements for the SR to operate are a power
source and Propane, Natural Gas, or Diesel. They conveniently attach to 120V AC power, or
12V DC as its power source, which can be recharged by solar energy. To operate the toilet after
use, one simply has to close the lid and press the “flush buttons". The toilet has two flush buttons:
one for urine, and one for waste. By pressing the button, a feeder screw will start to move any
waste present into the burn chamber, which is located at the back of the toilet. At this point the
incineration process starts up automatically and begins the burning
cycles. Since these models burn all the waste after each usage,
there will never be any waste left inside the toilet that can cause
unpleasant odor. Depending on the SR model used, the process can
take a few minutes for a quick urine cycle, or up to 30 minutes for
a waste cycle. One of the great features of these units is that even
though a burn cycle is in progress, one can still use the toilet.
It will simply shut off the burning process when the toilet lid is
lifted up. Once the lid has been
closed again, it will resume the
burn process and finish the burn
cycle. A display panel signals
when the process is complete
or if something has gone wrong
with the unit or malfunction has
occured, i.e. Propane or Diesel is out.
