The success of the Excel
design meant that a three chamber unit could be specifically designed for those
with NO continuous 110 volt supply. First launched in 1981, the Excel NE has long
been the standard toilet for those living off the grid. A 1998 redesign gave the
unit a rounded look, and recessed the drum handle. The
Excel NE has no fan or heater. Odorless operation is achieved by a 4" vent
mounted at the top rear of the unit which acts like a chimney on a wood stove.
For good air movement the vent should be installed vertically and to 2-3 feet
above the peak of the roof. The optional 12 Volt Fan should be installed
if you need to install the toilet with any bends in the vent. No more than 2 45°
bends are encouraged, even with the fan. If
the Excel NE is used residentially or heavily, or is in a place which is subject
to downdraft, the optional 12 volt fan should be installed in the vent stack.
This fan draws 1.4 watts and can be powered by a solar panel and 12 volt marine
battery. Evaporating
capacity on the Excel NE is variable, so the 1" drain at the rear should
be connected to an approved drain pit, container, or other facility. Please contact
us for more information on handling excess liquid.
