SYSTEM OVERVIEW
The water and waste system consist of three subsystems:
- Potable water system
- Waste water system
- Toilet system
WATER AND WASTE FLUID STORAGE (A318 / A319 /
A321)
The potable water tank and the waste holding tank are installed in the
pressurized underfloor area LH rear the aft cargo compartment. An
indication system monitors the water and waste tank quantities.
POTABLE WATER SYSTEM
The potable water system supplies water from the water tank through
a distribution system to the user. The water is supplied to water faucets
in the galleys and lavatories. The system also supplies water to the
water heaters and vacuum toilet units. Mechanically or electrically
operated valves control the supply of the potable water system.
Compressed air is used to pressurize the system to supply water from
the tank to the necessary service locations. The air pressure is supplied
from the bleed air system in normal configuration or a ground pressure
connection for maintenance. An air compressor can be installed as an
U5F07351 - U1135T0 - UM38BA000000002
option. Each lavatory can be isolated from the potable water

distribution system through a manual shut-off valve.

POTABLE WATER HEATING, ICE PROTECTION AND
WINTERIZATION PROTECTION
One water heater is installed in each lavatory and in each galley. Water
pipes, where icing conditions can occur are insulated and heated by
tape electrical heaters. The potable water service panel is heated to
prevent ice formation. Optionally, the fill/drain nipple and overflow
nipple are also electrically heated. These heating elements are
controlled automatically by two anti-ice control units installed in the
cargo compartments. In winter conditions, the potable water system
must be drained during night stops.

POTABLE WATER CONTROL AND INDICATING (FAP)
The water and waste indications are displayed on the Flight Attendant
Panel (FAP) for aircraft fitted with cabin systems. ON FAP, the
quantity indication is displayed automatically as soon as the service
panel is open, or when the Water/Waste key on the FAP is selected.
As an option, the filling quantity can be selected (25%, 50%, 75%
and 100%).

POTABLE WATER CONTROL AND INDICATING
(SERVICE PANEL)
There is only one control handle to fill or drain the water tank. It is
located on the water service panel. One drain valve is electrically
controlled when the fill/drain control handle is set to the drain position.
The overflow valve opens electrically when the fill/drain valve handle
is set to the drain or fill position. On the servicing panel, the indicator
gives the water quantity. One green light indicates that the forward
drain valve is open and one green light indicates that the tank is full.

WASTE WATER SYSTEM
The waste water system drains the used water from the lavatory
washbasins and the galley sinks. The waste water is discarded
overboard outside through the drain valve and the drain mast. The
two drain masts and drain lines have integrated electrical heating
elements to prevent ice formation at high altitude or during cold
weather.

the differential pressure between the cabin and the atmospheres is
sufficient to move the waste from the toilet bowl into the waste holding
tank. At low altitude or on ground, a vacuum generator starts to give
the necessary differential pressure in the waste system to move the
waste from the bowl to the tank. The Vacuum System Controller
Function (VSCF), integrated in the Cabin Intercommunication Data
System (CIDS), controls the flushing system operation and stops the
operation when the waste servicing panel is open. When the tank is
full, the liquid level transmitter stops the system operation.

MAINTENANCE TIPS
POTABLE WATER SYSTEM DRAINING IN COLD
WEATHER CONDITIONS
In cold weather conditions the potable water system must be drained
to prevent damage to the system by ice. To decide if the potable water
system needs be drained, we must refer to the water system drain
configuration table in the AMM 12-24-38. If the bleed air system is
off and the outside air temperature is below 0 °C (32 °F), the drain
valves must remain open after the potable water system is drained to
prevent damage to the potable water system. The cold weather
maintenance practices for the potable water system are given in the
AMM 12-31-38.

GENERAL
The waste water drain system discards the waste water from the lavatory
wash basins and from the galley sinks.
DRAIN ASSEMBLY
Each lavatory wash basin has a drain assembly with a valve actuated by
a control knob and a cable.
NOTE: The control knob is operated by the lavatory user.
DRAIN VALVE
Each drain valve opens only when a certain amount of water is collected.
This prevents a permanent loss of cabin air pressurization through the
drain lines.
DRAIN MAST
In flight, differential pressure between the cabin and the drain mast outlet
discards the waste water. On ground, gravity discards the waste water.
The drain masts are electrically heated to prevent ice formation.

TOILET SYSTEM PRINCIPLE (2)

GENERAL
Potable water from the aircraft pressurized potable water system is used
to flush the toilet bowl. Differential pressure between the cabin and the
atmosphere moves the waste from the toilet bowl to the waste holding
tank. This difference of pressure can be caused by the vacuum generator
or by aircraft pressurization.
RINSE/FLUSH CONTROL
A flush control unit per toilet controls the time and sequence of the toilet
operation during the flushing cycle.
VACUUM CONTROL
A vacuum generator is connected to the aircraft power circuit through
the motor starting relay. As soon as a FLUSH switch is pressed, the flush
control unit sends an electrical signal, through the connected
Decoder/Encoder Unit (DEU) B to the Cabin Intercommunication Data
System (CIDS) directors, which activates the motor starting relay
according to the altitude. The Cabin Pressure Controller (CPC) supplies
altitude data to CIDS via the System Data Acquisition Concentrator
(SDAC). At high altitude, the CPC stops the electrical supply of the
vacuum generator, the differential pressure between the cabin and the
U5F07351 - U1135T0 - UM38P1000000002
atmosphere being sufficient to move the waste from the toilet bowl to
the waste holding tank. At low altitude or on ground, the vacuum
generator generates the necessary differential pressure.

DRAINING
The lavatory service panel is located on the right side of the aft fuselage.
Open the service door. The controls consist of a drain port, two valve
levers, a drain control handle and a filling port. To empty the waste
system, open the cap assembly and connect the drain hose and next to it
the fill hose. Next to the drain connection is a small lever marked OPEN.
Push this lever in the direction of the arrow; the lever marked CLOSED
should rotate by spring action indicating that the valve has opened. Pull
the drain control handle outward to the extended position. This allows
waste materials to flow from the drain port. When the system is drained
return the control handle to the normal position. To flush the tank, use 5
gallons (19 l) of disinfectant commonly called "Blue Juice". Now drain
the system by extending the control handle. Once drained, return the
handle to the normal position. Replenish with 2 gallons (7,5 l) of blue
juice. You are now ready to disconnect hoses and replace the connection
caps on the drain and rinse ports. By closing the drain cap the drain valve
automatically closes. Clean and dry the panel with a clean cloth and do
not forget to close the service door. On the Forward Attendant Panel:
- if the LAV indicator light is on, reservice the system,
- if the light remains on, contact maintenance or maintenance control.
