PRODUCT INFORMATION ELECTRONIC AQUAVALVE The Tru-Design Electronic Aquavalve is designed and made in New Zealand for use in applications where remote “Push Button” diversion and control of the flow of water or effluent is desired. Typically used in marine toilet applications where protection for the environment necessitates the need to control effluent discharge – in many countries this is governed by regulation. The effluent can be held in a holding tank for later discharge overboard or to a shore side facility. The Tru-Design Electronic Aquavalve is moulded from a glass reinforced nylon composite. High strength, high-modulus glass fibres impregnated into the nylon provides dramatic strength, stiffness, toughness and dimensional stability. The Electronic Aquavalve is compliant with standards regarding electronic emissions. MODELS Part # The Electronic Aquavalve is supplied with Control Panel, Spanner and comprehensive installation and operation instructions. Fittings are purchased separately to accommodate the large variety of plumbing installations. Doc: PIS - Aquavalve Electronic 3.0.doc LEADERS IN MARINE COMPOSITE FITTINGS
