Raritan 2-Gallon Salt Feed Unit Complete f/LectraSan®

The Raritan 2-Gallon Salt Feed Unit Complete for LectraSan® systems is a purpose-built salt feed tank designed to support LectraSan® electric toilets operating in brackish or low-salinity water environments. While LectraSan® systems require no salt feed mechanism when used with ocean water—where natural salinity is sufficient—this complete 2-gallon unit becomes essential for vessels operating in inland waterways, coastal bays, or other low-salinity applications where supplemental salt dosing is necessary to maintain proper electrochemical toilet operation.

The system operates on a simple but effective principle: a salt solution is mixed and placed into the 2-gallon tank, which then automatically dispenses a measured dose of salt with each toilet flush. This metered delivery ensures consistent salinity levels within the holding tank, preventing the electrochemical cell from becoming salt-starved—a condition that degrades treatment performance and shortens cell life. The tank holds sufficient salt solution to serve extended cruising periods without constant refilling, reducing maintenance frequency and improving operational reliability aboard vessels with irregular saltwater access.

This complete unit is specified for any vessel or marine installation where LectraSan® toilets are operating outside natural seawater environments. Liveaboards, river cruisers, and offshore fishing vessels operating in mixed salinity zones represent typical end users. The low-salt indicator on the LectraSan® Control Panel provides clear feedback when the tank requires refilling, preventing operational gaps and ensuring waste treatment effectiveness throughout extended cruising seasons.

Proper salt feed maintenance is critical to LectraSan® system longevity and treatment performance in non-ocean environments. This 2-gallon capacity represents the OEM standard for reliable mid-range cruising intervals and is compatible with all standard LectraSan® installations using the Raritan electrochemical waste treatment platform.
