Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 15749-3 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 8, Ships and marine technology, Subcommittee
SC 3, Piping and machinery.
ISO 15749 consists of the following parts, under the general title Ships and marine technology — Drainage
systems on ships and marine structures:
— Part 1: Sanitary drainage-system design
— Part 2: Sanitary drainage, drain piping for gravity systems
— Part 3: Sanitary drainage, drain piping for vacuum systems
— Part 4: Sanitary drainage, sewage disposal pipes
— Part 5: Drainage of decks, cargo spaces and swimming pools

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in ISO 15749-1 apply.
4 Vacuum system
4.1 Functional description
The vacuum drainage system operates as follows:
 wastewater is collected from water closets, urinals, and bidets or from other drainage items in branch
lines or manifolds;
 the wastewater is carried by means of the vacuum to a wastewater collector tank or a sewage treatment
plant.
The wastewater is evacuated in the form of a “plug” (sewage plug) owing to a pressure difference in the pipes
before and behind the plug.
4.2 Description
4.2.1 Drain lines in the vacuum system commence at the drain of a drainage item.
Vacuum-operated water closets have an integrated vacuum mechanism, other drainage items are connected
to a separate vacuum valve via a short non-vacuum line.
Drain lines in the vacuum system terminate at a vacuum-generating unit.
4.2.2 The wastewater is conveyed through pressure pipes from the vacuum generation unit to a collector
tank or sewage treatment plant.
NOTE The vacuum-generating unit may also be integrated into the collector tank or sewage treatment plant.
4.2.3 The sewage disposal pipes downstream of the collector tank or sewage treatment plant are not part of
the vacuum system.
For the design of these and other pressure pipes, ISO 15749-4 is applicable.
Figure 2 of this standard shows an example of a vacuum-operated drainage system with drain lines.
4.2.4 Depending on the ship type, its architecture, arrangement of ship's rooms and number of persons,
one, two or more vacuum sewage systems, which serve separate sections of a ship, can be provided.
4.3 Operating pressure
The operating pressure is between 0,4 bar and 0,7 bar absolute pressure (corresponding to a permissible
negative pressure of between − 0,3 bar and − 0,6 bar).
4.4 Drainage items
4.4.1 Vacuum-operated water closet
A water closet fitted with a mechanism for drain and flush valve control shall be provided.
The water volume for one flushing operation is approximately 1,2 litres.

ISO 15749-3:2004(E)
4.4.2 Urinals and bidets
These sanitary drainage items do not have built-in vacuum mechanisms and shall therefore be connected to a
separate vacuum mechanism (vacuum valve) via connecting lines.
4.4.3 Washbasins and other drainage items
These sanitary drainage items do not have built-in vacuum mechanisms and shall therefore be connected to a
separate vacuum mechanism (vacuum valve) via connecting lines.
5 Pipes
Depending on the location, the following pipes shall be used for vacuum drain lines and vent lines:
 steel pipes in accordance with 5.1;
 steel pipes and CuNiFe pipes with spigot and socket joints, hereinafter referred to as spigot and socket
pipes;
 CuNiFe pipes in accordance with 5.3;
 PVC-U pipes in accordance with 5.4; plastic pipes shall be approved in accordance with IMO-Resolution
A.753 (18);
 pipes with low flame spread and smoke emission properties are at the discretion of the classification
society.
For nominal bores see Table 1.
