INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLATION AND USE
Thank you for choosing the new Separett Weekend 5200.
This waterless toilet with separate urinal section is designed on the
latest environmental principles. Made from recyclable materials, it
is built to provide excellent performance over many years.
HOW THE TOILET WORKS
This type of toilet can only be used when sitting down. All urine
must be directed by the user into the front urinal section, from
where it is piped to a suitable disposal point. Depending on the
local regulations in your country, the urine may be piped directly
into the domestic wastewater system, into a suitably constructed
soakaway outdoors, or into a urine tank. The faeces go into the
solid waste container for drying out, which means they quickly
become odourless.
Advantages:
-Because the urine and faeces are always kept separate, there will
be no unpleasant 'privy' odours outdoors.
-Because the urine never comes into contact with faeces, it remains
sterile.
-Depending on local regulations the urine can be piped into the
domestic wastewater system, to a soakaway or be used as a
fertiliser for lawns or shrubs.
-Because it is designed to operate 24 hours a day, the fan will keep
the room where the toilet is both dry and free of odours.
Faeces have a moisture content of about 70%. The rate at which
they dry will depend upon the degree of ventilation and the
ambient temperature. The surface of faeces will usually have
become dry and odourless 15 to 30 minutes after the toilet is used.
The two 27-litre solid waste containers supplied will normally have
adequate capacity for about four people using a holiday house
intermittently. If more than four use the house, or if the house is
used as a permanent dwelling, the capacity of the toilet can easily
be extended by using additional solid waste containers, composting
the solid waste elsewhere or using special bags to line the solid
waste container.
When a container is full it must be lifted out of the toilet and
placed outdoors for further composting and neutralisation of
bacteria. A small amount of soil and water are added at this stage,
then the container and its contents must be left to stand for six
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 your ordinary
garden soil. At this stage the compost will look very much the
same as it did when removed from the toilet, but it will now be
free of harmful bacteria. It makes an excellent garden soil
improver. Use the second solid waste container in the toilet while
the first filled container is composting outdoors. If you use special
bags to line the solid waste container, composting can be done in
these, but they should be placed inside another suitable container to
prevent any seepage into the soil.

TECHNICAL DATA
Materials:
Upper and lower main sections: impact-resistant, high-gloss
polystyrene
Seat: polypropylene
Inner container and cover: polyethylene
All materials are recyclable.
Weight: 13 kg
Venting pipe diameter: 75 mm
Urine waste system: urine waste hose, OD 32 mm
Electrical equipment: fan, 230 V, 11 W
Electrical connection: 2 metre lead with earthed plug
Energy consumption: 0.264 kWh/24 hours (96.36 kWh/year)
Capacity using the two solid waste containers supplied, in rotation:
approx. four people using a holiday house intermittently. No
capacity restrictions if the solid waste is composted separately or
more containers are used.
Please note: 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.
IF THE TOILET IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY
The Separett Weekend 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 you contact the stockist who supplied it.
If there are flies inside the toilet
Either: Cover the solid waste inside the container with soil and use
a fly spray.
Or: Lift out the solid waste container and compost its contents.
Spray inside the toilet and the room with fly spray. Put an empty
container inside the toilet.
If there is an unpleasant odour in the room
1.
Is the fan running?
2.
Are all joints in the venting pipe and urine waste pipe
completely airtight/watertight?
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 an odour from the toilet is apparent outdoors
If urine has got into the solid waste container and mixed with
1.
faeces, the combination will start to 'ferment', causing a
'privy' smell. Change over to an empty solid waste container.
If the urine is being piped into the domestic wastewater
2.
system, this can be the source of stray odours. If this is the
case, install a U-bend in the urine domestic wastewater system
to act as a trap.
If the fan is noisy or causing vibration
1.
Is the toilet fixed securely onto the wall?
2.
Are there any flies inside the fan housing? If so, they can be
removed using a vacuum cleaner. First isolate the fan from
the power supply, then disconnect the venting connector to
gain access to the fan from above.
