T&T: Vacuflush Cycling

An important part was left out of the original post. Is this a VacuFlush  
Vacuum Generator (pump on top of tank)  or a VacuFlush system with a  remotely 
mounted pump?
 
If it is a vacuum generator it is very important to not disturb the  uniseal 
during changing of the duckbills or the problem will get worse than it  was. I 
speak from experience. Every time I would address the duckbills, I would  
move the entire unit slightly which caused the 90 degree elbow in the uniseal to  
move, thus creating a vacuum leak.

I agree  that it should not cycle.  I installed mine and can hear the
vacuum  pump in the salon when the head is flushed but have only once
heard it  cycle on it's own.  I found that it was sucking the water out
of the  bowl because of some debris on the seal at the flush valve.

My new vacuflush system's vacuum pump recycles every  90 minutes,
service gut
says this meets factory specs. Seams  unreasonable.  Any opinions  on
this?
