- This video describes a method for testing the vacuum switch on the Vacuflush toilet system used on narrowboats.
The vacuum pump that I used was a Broco DC 12V Micro Vacuum Pump Electric Mini Air Pump ( £8.39 from Amazon ).which I powered from a variable power supply.
I used the gauge from a Neilsen vacuum and fuel pump test tool.
I believe the switch is intended to operate at 10-12 inches ( Hg ) of Vacuum, so the switch turns off at this level.
If the microswitch needs to be replaced it is a Square D9007 A01 model which is available from various component suppliers.
I'm in the US having problems with Vacuflush, would cleaning the inside of the switch be any benefit. My system keeps running and if I tap on the tank it will stop. Could you please give me the micro switch replacement info.
