Abstract
A pumping system for a plurality of recirculating toilets sharing a common tank is described. A variable volume pump has a by-pass valve which is controlled by a pressure sensor in the flush line, to prevent excessive fluid pressure at the toilets. For applications in which the total number of toilets in the system requires a flow exceeding the output of a single pump, additional, substantially identical pumps are provided. A time delay circuit is connected to a pressure switch for energizing a second pump, if the fluid pressure at the toilets does not exceed a predetermined pressure within a set time interval.
