Passenger Wagon Sanitary Module

The sanitary module of a passenger wagon is an assembly unit consisting of a restroom with a sink and a toilet block, ready for installation in a train carriage. It contains all the necessary components for connection to water supply and power systems

This module is installed in passenger cars of locomotive-hauled trains, diesel trains, and electric trains to ensure sanitary and hygienic conditions for passengers and train crews during the journey, as well as to protect the environment.

The module is designed to receive and dispose of human waste through intensive and dosed flushing into a waste tank, creating necessary comfortable conditions.

The module is supplied with electricity and water from the wagon’s sources.

The module’s equipment provides automatic control of the flushing system, module lighting, ventilation, and heating of the waste tank and pipes. It also indicates the functional status of the electrical equipment through light signals.
