POTABLE WATER SYSTEM
Purpose
Purpose of the water system is to supply water to the galleys and lavatories for
use by the passengers and crew.
General Subsystem Features
The water system consists of:

 a filling system for the tank through an external service panel,
 a water tank with a quantity indicating system, for storing the water,
 an air pressure system to force the water from the tank,
 and distribution lines to deliver the water to the galleys and lavatories.
Tank and Distribution
The tank is filled from a ground cart through an external service panel, and
pressurized from the pneumatic manifold. When pressurized, water is forced
from the tank through distribution lines to the galleys and lavatories. In the
lavatories, some water is diverted through an electric water heater to the hot
water faucet. The rest of the water goes to the cold water faucet. A filter on the
cold water line is optional.
A tank quantity transmitter signals the quantity to the indicator located in the
aft galley area. An external indicator, on the service panel, is optional. The
tank and distribution lines can be drained through valves located adjacent to
the tank and in the lavatories.

WATER SYSTEM LOCATION

Boeing 737-300/400/500 ATA 38
WATER SERVICE PANEL
Filling the Tank
Water is supplied to the system from a service cart. A water service panel on
the left side of the airplane is used for filling the tank.
The service panel contains a fill connection and an overflow outlet. These
units are connected with tubing to the fill and overflow valve, which has a
control rod and handle that protrudes through the service panel. An air line,
connected to the top of the tank, terminates in the service panel at a valve that
may be used to pressurize the system. The tank drain valve control handle is
accessible from the service panel.
To fill the tank use the following procedure:
 Attach the supply hose to the fill connector.

 Place the fill and overflow valve control handle in OPEN position.
 Turn on the water supply. While water is filling, the tank will vent
through the overflow outlet.
 When the tank is full, water is forced out the overflow.
 Turn off water supply, disconnect the supply hose.
 Place the fill and overflow control handle in CLOSED position. The
water service panel door cannot be closed if the fill and overflow
handle is in the OPEN position.

WATER SYSTEM SCHEMATIC (CONFIG. 1)
Operation
The water supply line is routed from the tank to the aft passenger cabin ceiling
area. From there, it is routed above the ceiling panels to the forward end of the
passenger cabin through flexible Teflon tubing enclosed in an aluminum
shroud. The shroud prevents water from dripping onto the ceiling panels if a
leak should occur. The shroud will conduct leaking water to the lower fuselage
area where it can drain overboard through the fuselage drain. From the main
distribution line supply lines are connected to the lavatories and the galleys.
Galley supply is through connecting fittings located in the ceiling above each
galley. Lavatory supply is routed inside the lavatory walls to the area under the
wash basin counter.
Tank Filling
The water supply is from a service cart. A supply hose is attached to the fill
connector and the fill and overflow valve handle is placed to the OPEN
position. During filling, the tank vents through the overflow outlet. A full tank is
indicated by water flow from the overflow outlet. Placing the valve handle to
the CLOSED position stops the water supply and closes the overflow lines.
Tank Draining
Placing the drain valve handle to the OPEN position, water from the tank and
the main distribution line drains overboard through an outlet in the fuselage
skin

WATER SYSTEM SCHEMATIC (CONFIG. 2)
Distribution to Galleys and Lavatories
The water supply line is routed from the tank to the aft passenger cabin ceiling
area. From there, it is routed above the ceiling panels to the forward end of the
passenger cabin through flexible tubing enclosed in an aluminum shroud. The
shroud prevents water from dripping onto the ceiling panel if a leak should
occur. The shroud will conduct leaking water to the lower fuselage area where
it can drain out the fuselage drains. Supply lines go from the main distribution
line to the lavatories and the galleys.
Galley supply is through disconnect fittings located in the ceiling above each
galley.
Lavatory supply is routed inside the lavatory walls to the area under the wash
basin counter. It divides to supply:
 Cold water faucet

 Hot water faucet -water passes through a water heater and then to the
hot water faucet.
Note: Cold and hot water can be mixed by a mixing valve and will come to a
single faucet. That is optional (see schematic below).
A drain valve is installed in the lines under the counter.

Waste water from the wash basin drains either into the toilet tank or overboard
through an optional drain mast.
Monitoring water Quantity in Tank an indicator in the aft galley area provide
means for checking tank quantity.

WATER HEATER
Location
A water heater is installed under each lavatory counter in the supply line to the
hot water faucet.
Access
The heater is accessible through the door under the sink.
The heater capacity is one and one-half quarts. Water is heated by a 400-watt
heater consisting of heater elements in the heater tank. A control switch, an
indicator light and an overheat switch are mounted on the outside wall of the
heater tank. Normally, the control switch should be ON and the light
illuminated. A pressure relief valve in the side of the water heater tank relieves
at approximately 140 psi.
Operation
A cycling thermal switch in the heater tank regulates water temperature to

52°C (125°F). The overheat switch on top of the water heater limits the case
temperature to approximately 88°C (190°F). If overheat occurs, the switch
interrupts power to the heater and the light. The light will not illuminate if the
control switch is OFF or the overheat switch is open.
Maintenance Practices
If an overheat occurs, the switch must be manually reset. Remove the cover at
the top of the water heater and reset by pressing the center of the rubber
cover over the overheat switch. Reset is indicated by illumination of the light.

WATER TANK DRAIN COMPONENTS
Draining Tank and Distribution System
A two-position drain valve, CLOSED or OPEN, is located below the tank. The
control handle for the valve is in the water service panel. In the OPEN
position, water in the tank and main distribution line will drain through an
opening in the lower fuselage.
The lavatory distribution lines are drained through the three-position Potable
Water Supply & Drain Shutoff Valve in the lavatories. These valves function as
follows:
 ON (Supply). Normal. Water from the main distribution line passes

through to the heater and the cold water faucet.
 DRAIN. Drains water from the lavatory lines and main distribution line
in the cabin ceiling area overboard.
 OFF. Shuts off water supply from the main distribution line to the
lavatory. The lavatory faucets are self-venting.
Secondary Drain Valve (Fwd Lavatory only)
A second valve is added to the drain line installation in the forward lavatory. If
the Potable Water Supply & Drain Shutoff Valve is accidentlally set to the
drain position, the Secondary Drain Valve will not let the water drain. It must
be placed to the open position for the Water System Draining Procedure. For
Draining Procedure see AMM.

Operation
When the flush control is activated, the motor operates a pump inside the tank
and pumps water into the bowl flush ring. The motor drives a filter drive pinion
shaft which rotates a filter basket. The basket surrounds the pump inlet to
prevent objects entering the pump inlet. A fixed wiper blade on the outer
surface of the impeller housing keeps the surface of the basket open. On
aircrafts without drain mast fluid in excess of the 17 U.S. gallon capacity will
overflow through the drain tube into the 15 U.S. gallon auxiliary toilet tank.
Toilet Flushing Circuit
The toilet flush motor is powered by 115 volts ac, 3-phase. The C phase is
used to power the timer and relays.
Control
When the flushing switch is pushed, a circuit is completed to energize a relay

and provide power to the flush motor for the timed interval. Reversing of the
flush motor is accomplished by a change over relay to reverse phases A and
B. The flush motor runs for 10 seconds during each flush cycle.

FORWARD LAVATORY BALL VALVE

Boeing 737-300/400/500 ATA 38
TOILET DRAIN- AND DRAIN MAST HEATERS
Toilet Drain Heaters
The aft toilet drain has a heater to stop ice formation. The heater is in the drain
gasket. The heater operates with 115V AC.
On some airplanes, the forward toilet drain has a heater in the drain gasket.
The heater operates with 115V AC. The DRAIN HEATER circuit breaker is
located on the P18-3 panel.
Drain Mast Heaters
The forward and aft water drain masts are electrically heated to prevent ice
from forming and blocking the drain. The heating elements operate on either
28 Volts AC for low heat ground operation or 115 Volts AC for high heat during
airborne operation. Low heat power is supplied from the 28 Volt AC Main Bus
No. 2 through the DRAIN MAST HEATER-GND circuit breaker, and high heat
power is supplied from the 115 Volt AC Main Bus No. 1 through the DRAIN
MAST HEATER-AIR circuit breaker. Both circuit breakers are located on the
P18-3 panel.
A ribbon heater tape is wrapped around the forward drain mast line. It
prevents freezing of the line.
For low heat ground operation of the drain masts, 28 Volt AC power is
provided by two relays, a landing gear air sensing relay and an external power
sensing relay. When the airplane is in the air, 115 Volt AC power is used for
heating the drain masts; but, upon landing, the landing gear air sensing relay
is de-energized, thereby switching to the 28 Volt AC power supply for low heat
ground operation to prevent the heater from overheating and possibly burning
out the heating element. Additional protection against overheating of the drain
masts is provided by the external power sensing relay which prevents
inadvertent application of 115 Volts AC to the heater during maintenance in
the event the airplane is raised on jacks. The external power sensing relay is
energized when external power supplies the airplane.
