With the Separett Ejectortank Urine Garden Sprayer from Nomadic Supply Company®, urine is automatically diluted to the correct mixture of eight parts water to one part urine, allowing plants to absorb the nutrients without harm. This way, the urine, which contains most of our beneficial waste, can be easily spread in flower beds, gardens, lawns, or shrubs.
The 13.2 gallon volume is sufficient for vacation homes with spreading every other week or every third week. A float indicates when the tank is full. The Separett Ejectortank is easy to install and has no moving parts.
Separett Ejectortank Urine Garden Sprayer Function
For optimal operation, the Ejector tank requires access to water with a pressure of at least 2.5 bar (36 psi). With access to higher water pressure, it can handle greater height differences between the spreader nozzle and the tank.
Separett Ejectortank Urine Garden Sprayer Use
To empty the Ejector Tank, connect a standard garden hose with a 1/2” quick coupling (“Gardena coupling”) to the corresponding coupling on the tank. Pull out the included 3/4” hose and remove any kinks. Open the water tap; the water flows through the 1/2” hose into the ejector, sucking the urine along and pushing the mixture into the 3/4” hose. Regardless of water pressure (minimum 2.5 bar / 36 psi), the mixing ratio will always be approximately 1:8. When the tank is empty, a slurping sound will be heard.
Separett Ejectortank Urine Garden Sprayer Maintenance
After emptying the Ejector Tank, the ejector nozzle and suction hose should be cleaned by stopping the water flow in the discharge hose for a minute. The easiest way to do this is by pressing the spray nozzle into the lawn or folding the hose. The amount of water that then flows back through the suction hose into the tank will clean the nozzle and suction hose of any salt deposits from the urine. The tank can then be emptied again by reopening the flow in the discharge hose.

Separett Ejectortank Urine Garden Sprayer Instructions:
The Ejector Tank should be positioned so that the urine hose has a downward slope all the way from the toilet to the tank. If you are using a Separett Villa, the urine hose does not need to be sealed where it inserts into the Ejector Tank’s lid because the vacuum from the toilet fan will draw in any odors coming from the urine.
Since the Ejector Tank does not need to be moved for emptying and cleaning, it can be buried so that only the lid is above ground. The only thing to keep in mind is that the discharge height should not be higher than approximately 5 feet above the tank, as this would reduce the ejector function (suction of urine).

Frequently asked questions about the Separett Ejector tank
Separett Ejector tank is a unique way of gathering the urine from a urine diverting compost toilet and using it as fertiliser for grass. We have gathered the most frequently asked questions about the Ejector tank here.
How do I use the Separett Ejector tank?
The Separett Ejector tank has an inbuilt ejector part which with the difference in water pressure sucks urine from the container and blends it with water in a 1:8 ratio making the mixture safe for grass. For the Ejector Tank to function optimally, access to water with a pressure of at least 35 psi / 2.5 bar / 250 kPa is required. This pressure is sufficient to spray out mixture on the same level or lower as the container. Lower pressure will lead to the container filling with water instead. Going uphill requires higher pressure for the incoming water.
How do I store the Separett Ejector tank?
Urine freezes at about 23° F. In freezing conditions it’s important to empty the container of urine and water. Also remember to empty the ejector part in the lid of the Ejector tank to prevent it from cracking. The container itself can be washed like any other plastic container.
Can I dig down the Separett Ejector tank to the ground?
Yes. The Separett Ejector tank can be dug down to the ground to a depth no deeper than where the wider upper part starts.
How do I know when to empty the Ejector tank?
The Ejector tank has a floating gauge which rises with the level of the liquid in the container. It’s time to empty the container when the red marker in the pin of the gauge becomes visible.
How long of a hose can I use to spray the mixture from the Ejector tank?
The Ejector tank is delivered with a 33 feet hose. This hose may be extended to a total of 66 feet but bear in mid that any extensions to the original hosewill need to be done with an external sealing. Using quick connectors will create variations in the internal diameter of the hose causing wrong water pressure at the system won’t work. Also the original nozzle should not be replaced meaning that any extension to the pipe must be done in the middle of the original outlet hose.
