Flojet 18555 Portable RV Waste Macerator Pump Exploded Parts Diagram

The Flojet 18555 portable macerator fits a standard three-inch RV waste outlet and empties through a garden-hose discharge connection. Its pump end contains a stainless chopper, wearplates, flexible impeller and shaft seal. Use Xylem’s 17-number exploded illustration to identify the wet-end service parts and distinguish them from the motor and external fittings.

Choosing the right pump repair

Jabsco/Flojet 18598-2000 supplies the wet-end service pieces for a compatible 18555-series portable macerator. Lip-seal kit 1040-0000 is also sold separately. Neither one supplies a complete electric motor or stainless chopper. The 18550 fixed-mount pump uses different hose connections and should not be confused with the removable 18555.

Before choosing a replacement

Check the nameplate and the shaft-cover version before choosing a motor or cover: some earlier 18555 pumps have a rubber boot, while the newer Xylem illustration has a metal cover. Xylem specifies 12V DC power with a 20-amp fused circuit, limits dry running to 30 seconds and instructs that the portable pump not be permanently mounted to the waste outlet.
