Technical Data - Separett VILLA 9000 Mode D'emploi

Thank you for choosing the new Separett Villa, which is designed on the latest
environmental technology and is built to provide excellent performance over many years.
The Separett Villa 9000 is supplied with:
Venting pipe (40 cm), 90° pipe joint, vent (Ø75 mm), cowl, 3 solid waste
containers and 2 lids, 10 solid waste bags, 2 m white hose for urine waste
(Ø32 mm) with connectors, silicone sealant compound for joints in venting
pipe, brackets and screws for mounting to wall or floor.
Urine separation
• No unpleasant 'privy' odours.
• Clean (sterile) urine that can be piped straight into the domestic
wastewater system, to a soakaway or be used as a fertiliser for lawns or
shrubs. You should contact the local authorities to find out which
environmental regulations apply in your region.
• Unlimited capacity: When the container is full, it is lifted out and the
contents composted. It is then replaced by an empty container. 3 containers
supplied. Built-in fan keeps the room dry and free of odours.
Composting/neutralisation of bacteria
Mix some soil into the container and cover the contents with a layer of soil.
Place the lid on the container but leave it open slightly to allow the air to
circulate in the compost. The container and its contents must be left to
stand for six (6) months (this is the period currently required under health
and safety regulations in Sweden). Once the composting period has ended,
the contents of the container can be dug into the garden or compost. Traces
of toilet paper, etc. quickly decompose and the compost makes an excellent
garden soil improver.

Installation
The toilet will function in both warm and cold locations. It must be possible
to route the urine waste pipe to a suitable outlet and to install the venting
pipe. A 230V power supply is needed.
Place the toilet where it is to be installed. Mark out and make holes for the
urine waste pipe and venting pipe. Note that the urine waste pipe can be
moved to the right-hand side of the toilet. Do this by unscrewing 2 nuts at
the front, remove the condensation hose, attach the urine waste pipe on the
right-hand side and fix the condensation hose securely back into place. Seal
with silicone. Attach the toilet to the floor using 3 screws through holes in
the rotor disc or to the wall using angle brackets or directly into the wall
beam. (Figures 1, 2, 3)
Urine waste pipe: You should contact the local authorities to find out which
health and environmental regulations apply in your region. If the urine is to
flow into the domestic wastewater system (e.g. beneath a washbasin or
shower) (Figure 4), the waste pipe must have an adequate drop through its
entire length, so that the normal flow will prevent the build-up of salt
deposits inside this drain. If the hose/pipe is joined to the waste pipe below
a washbasin, make sure that the water from the basin flows out properly
and does not block the urine waste pipe. A water seal will only need to be
fitted if an unpleasant odour is apparent from the domestic waste pipe up
through the toilet or from the venting pipe outside the house. As this very
seldom happens, it is best to wait until the problem occurs before adding a
water seal. If a water seal is installed, it is important to rinse the toilet every
time it has been used in order to prevent the build-up of salt deposits in the
trap.
Disposal via a sand bed soakaway: (Figure 5) The soakaway should have a
layer of stone or suitable gravel at the bottom where the urine pipe ends,
and the urine pipe should have a steady drop from the toilet to its end to
ensure adequate flow. If the toilet is to be used during the colder winter
months, the hose will need to be insulated. In harsh winter climates, some
form of heating device for the pipe will be needed to prevent ice forming
and blocking the pipe. Otherwise, it will be adequate to use Ø50-75 mm
piping.
Disposal via a urine tank: (e.g. the 'Separett Ejectortank') (Figure 6) A
suitable tank can be positioned outdoors. It must be at a lower level than the
toilet to ensure an adequate flow throughout the length of the hose.

NB! If the urine pipe needs to be routed close to radiators or through
insulated floors or walls, we recommend using standard plastic pipes
(Ø32 mm) instead of the hose supplied.
Ventilation:
Venting through either an outer wall or the roof. The
venting kit supplied with the toilet is for Figure 7. If Figures 8-9 are to
be followed, additional piping and sleeve couplings can be purchased as
optional accessories. If there already is a venting pipe from a previously
installed toilet, the Separett can be connected to it, whatever the pipe
diameter. Sealant rings for Ø55 mm and Ø110 mm piping are available
as optional accessories. All joints in the venting pipe must be sealed
with silicone or equivalent, but the pipe does not need to be insulated.
The condensing baffle by the toilet pipe connection will intercept any
condensation and route it via the condensation hose to the urine waste
pipe. If the ventilation pipe is installed in a horizontal position, make
sure that it slopes sufficiently to allow any condensation to run back to
the toilet.
NB! Only use venting pipes made of plastic.
NB! The fan should be allowed to run constantly. This increases the
fan's service life (by reducing build-up of deposits on rotor shaft and
other moving parts) and also helps to divert moisture outdoors.
The switch on the panel regulates the fan speed and should normally be
in position "I". Position "II" is used when several people have used the
toilet or to expel damp air quickly after the shower has been used, etc.
Connect the plug to the wall socket. Check that the fan is operating and
that the venting system is fully functional. Press down on the seat to
ensure that the view guard slides open and that the container rotates as
intended. Your new toilet is now ready for use.
If the toilet is not working properly
The Separett Villa is manufactured and quality-controlled to ensure the
best possible performance and reliability. If, in spite of this, it appears to
be malfunctioning, please check the points in the list below before
contacting your dealer or Separett AB. NB! First turn off the power
supply!
If there are flies inside the toilet
1 Lift out the solid waste container and put a new one in. Spray inside
the toilet and the room with a fly spray. Turn the fan off while the spray
is taking effect. Repeat this procedure for a few days.
2 Remove and clean the insect mesh on the fan intake.
3 If the fan is turned off, the urine container will need to be lifted out.
Otherwise it will attract flies .
If there is an unpleasant odour in the room
1 Is the fan running?
2 Is the insect mesh on the fan intake clean?
3 Are all the joints in the venting pipe and urine waste pipe completely
tight?
If there is a floor drain, check that it has a correct water seal.
If the container is filling up too fast
1 Use toilet paper more frugally.
2 If urine finds its way into the solid waste container too often, this will
significantly increase the volume of waste there.
If urine gets into the container
1 Attach the urinal section extension that is supplied with the toilet. (See
Figure 13)
2 Or loosen the nuts underneath the seat and move it forwards.
(See Figure 14)
If an odour from the toilet is apparent outdoors
1 Latrine-type odour. If urine gets into the container it will cause a
latrine-type odour. Change to a new container and treat as described
above.
2 Waste water odour. If the urine is being piped into the domestic
wastewater system, this can be the source of unpleasant smells. If this is
the case, install a water seal in the urine waste pipe to act as a trap.
If the fan is noisy or causing vibration
1 Is the toilet fixed securely into place?
2 Clean the insect mesh on the fan intake.
If the wastewater system is blocked
1 Clear the blockage using proper cleaning rods.
