3. Functional Description

e-Toilet has to be placed on a basic civil construction base. The unit has an Indian/Western-style closet, health faucet, lights, status display & instruction boards, etc. as the case may be. The water tank of 300 or 500-litre capacity will be erected on top of the toilet unit. The tank will be connected to the three flushes (pre-flush/platform washing/ after use flush) in the unit.

There will be display light outside the toilet unit, which shows whether the unit is ‘Occupied’ indicating with Red light or ‘Unoccupied’ indicating with Greenlight. The user can enter by inserting a coin in case of pay-per-use e-Toilet or press the switch for free access e-Toilet and close the door manually, similar to a conventional toilet.

Upon entering the toilet, indoor lights will be switched on automatically. The pre-flush system will wet the closet initially. Toilet flush can be activated using a manual flush cock provided inside the toilet. Even if the user forgets to flush after usage, the system will automatically flush after the exit. Exit from the unit is completely manual.

An automatic floor cleaning mechanism is also provided through which, the floor will be cleaned automatically. The floor cleaning can be activated either through a push switch or it can be programmed to function after a specified usage.

The e-Toilet, though it has integrated several electronic technologies for its smooth operations, does not provide any complex electronic interface for the common man. The electronic systems are purely utilised for effective management of the e-Toilets.
