Jabsco 18690-0000 115V AC Macerator Pump
The Jabsco 18690-0000 is the Jabsco 115 volt AC heavy duty macerator pump, a self-priming flexible impeller macerator with a nitrile impeller, lip seal, stainless steel wearplates and a stainless steel cutter plate that reduces solids to 1/8 in maximum. Ports are 1-1/2 in NPT male or 1-1/2 in hose barb inlet and 1 in hose barb outlet, and it suits marine, RV and domestic waste handling where AC power is available.
Macerator pumps grind waste into a fine slurry and pump it from a holding tank to a deck fitting or overboard where permitted. Keep the chopper, wearplates and impeller in good condition, since worn parts reduce flow and let solids jam the pump. Never run a flexible impeller macerator dry, and flush it with fresh water after emptying the tank.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why does my macerator hum but not pump?
Usually the impeller is damaged from running dry or the chopper is jammed with debris. Isolate power before checking.
Q: Can the macerator run dry?
Flexible impeller macerators must not run dry except run-dry models, which tolerate it for limited periods.
Q: What should not go through a macerator?
Wipes, rags, sanitary products and hard objects. They jam the chopper and wear parts quickly.
Q: How often should it be serviced?
Inspect the impeller, wearplates and chopper at least once a season, and more often with heavy use.
