The BLACKBOX-62 is a portable, all-in-one waste disposal solution — a commercial-grade wastewater holding tank with a fully automated pump system. It's the perfect way to move waste water from portable cabins, portable offices, tiny homes and semi-permanently sited RVs to a suitable drain on a suburban or rural property, building site, holiday bach and more.
How it works
Waste water from the kitchen, bathroom and toilet drains into the 62-litre holding tank. Inside sits a large-capacity 750 W centrifugal pump (15,000 litres/hour) with a built-in float switch: when the fluid reaches a set level, the float automatically switches the pump on and the waste is pumped out through the 40 mm outlet pipe; when the level drops, the pump switches itself off. Fully automatic — no manual emptying.
Why BLACKBOX-62
- Can be installed inside or outside a building or recreational vehicle
- Minimal moving parts to clog up or break
- Designed for low stress on all components — problem-free service and a long operational life
-
Manufactured in New Zealand from best-quality components
-
Simple installation — can be DIY installed without professional assistance
Performance
The pump moves fluids up to 100 m in distance or up to an 8 m head height (manufacturer's specs). We recommend working on 80 m distance or 6 m head height — it's best to be conservative with toilet waste. The pump has a 40 mm flow diameter; connect 40 mm or 50 mm alkathene pipe or 40 mm pressure pipe to the outlet.

Trusted across New Zealand
A local manufacturer of portable cabins has replaced over 100 macerator systems with BLACKBOX-type systems. White, budget imported macerator systems are simply not comparable for performance.

"We build portable accommodation and find the BlackBox to be a great unit. They are located outside the building so that if there is ever a blockage/leak or any other problem, there is no mess inside and the toilet doesn't have to be removed to get access like other macerator units. These are a great solution!" — Josh
