3. Equipment description and specification About the Quattro macerator The Quattro was extended into two variants – the Vanguard Original and Vanguard Enhanced – in 2017. Both machines offer unparalleled superfine maceration and also built-in Biomaster silver antibacterial technology (tested to ISO 22196:2011) giving a lifetime protection against the growth of bacteria. In 2019 the Vangaurd Solo dB was added to the range.
How the Quattro works Quattro consists of an electric motor which drives a pulveriser, with a separate water pump that flushes the hopper and outlet pipe-work. Water is supplied via mains supply or a storage tank through an inlet solenoid valve. It uses cold water only. The solenoid valve is operated by the machine’s printed circuit board (PCB) which receives a signal from a level switch mounted in the cistern.

WARNING Observe the risk of trapping when opening/closing the lid using the foot pedal. Before starting the process of opening and closing, check there is nobody near to the lid as trapping may have serious consequences. Always operate the lid with caution. Pinch protection If something with sufficient resistance prevents the lid from closing then pinch protection is activated.
How to use night mode Night mode is an option available as standard on the Quattro Vanguard Solo dB. A typical pulp macerator operates at 60 – 64dBA whereas when night mode is activated, it operates at just 52dBA Leq. This means you can continue to use macerators located in wards immediately as required. The machine automatically switches to night mode during the hours of 11pm to 4am however the setting could be changed to suit whatever times you think are suitable for you.
