Description
Product Overview
The Solmetex NXT Hg5 High Volume Amalgam Separator is the dental industry’s premier centralized wastewater filtration system engineered specifically for large-scale practices, clinics, and multi-dentist facilities. Built to handle heavy-duty fluid dynamics without sacrificing suction, this high-capacity unit is certified under ISO 11143:2008 standards to remove greater than 99% of amalgam and toxic mercury sediment before it can enter the municipal waste stream. Capable of supporting 11 to 20 operatories simultaneously, the NXT Hg5 High Volume ensures total compliance with the EPA Dental Rule while safeguarding heavy-duty clinic vacuum pumps from abrasive metallic wear.
Key Pillars of Value
-
Enterprise-Scale EPA Compliance: Provides a turnkey solution for high-volume clinics to meet all local, state, and federal EPA regulations. Captures more than 99% of heavy metal solids and includes an all-inclusive mail-back recycling system with 24/7 online compliance tracking.
-
Dual-Container High Capacity: Utilizing an expanded architecture that features two parallel collection containers, this system manages the high fluid flow of up to 20 chairs simultaneously while extending the intervals between cartridge replacements.
-
Zero-Downtime Tool-Free Servicing: Engineered with an automatic internal air-water bypass manifold to maintain continuous clinical vacuum pressure. When the containers reach capacity, a simple, tool-free changeout takes under two minutes.
