Description
Product Overview
The Solmetex NXT Hg5 Mini Amalgam Separator delivers the exact same market-leading wastewater filtration efficiency as the standard NXT Hg5, but inside a space-saving, ultra-compact footprint. Explicitly engineered for smaller practices, tight utility spaces, or under-counter/under-sink applications, the NXT Hg5 Mini is certified under ISO 11143:2008 standards to capture greater than 99% of amalgam solids. Accommodating 1 to 4 operatories, this turnkey solution ensures total EPA Dental Rule compliance while delivering completely tool-free maintenance and seamless integration with existing wet or dry dental vacuum lines.
Key Pillars of Value
-
Space-Optimized Compliance: Saves valuable clinic real estate with a housing footprint that is 7.5 inches shorter than the standard model, allowing it to easily slip underneath cabinetry while still maintaining a full 99% amalgam separation efficiency.
-
Turnkey Maintenance & Disposal: Requires zero complicated service contracts. Changing out the spent collection container takes under two minutes with zero tools required, and includes a pre-paid mail-back recycling infrastructure with 24/7 digital access to certificates of compliance.
-
Pneumatic Equipment Protection: Isolates and stops dense, metallic sediments from accumulating inside vacuum piping. This keeps line friction low and preserves the operational integrity of downstream vacuum pumps.
Complete Feature & Specification Matrix
| Component Module | Features & Technical Specifications |
| Separation & Performance |
• Certification Standards: ISO 11143:2008 certified to capture greater than 99% of heavy metal solids. • Flow Dynamics: Maximum managed flow rate threshold of 1000 mL/min. • Operational Logic: Features an automatic internal bypass channel to guarantee constant vacuum suction even when the lower cartridge is full. |
| Physical Footprint & Plumbing |
• Capacity Profile: Specially scaled to service 1 to 4 operatories (chairs) simultaneously. • Piping Layout: Compact 3/4″ (0.75 inch) inlet and outlet connections equipped with premium Fernco® flexible couplers. • Mounting Flexibility: Includes versatile bracketry for secure under-counter floor placements or direct wall-mount configurations. • Physical Dimensions: Compact 11″ W x 22.5″ H x 8″ D (7.5 inches shorter than the standard NXT Hg5). |
| Environmental Parameters |
• Maximum Temperature: Safe thermal operating limits up to 120°F (52°C). • Maximum Vacuum Load: Rated up to 15″ Hg (51 kPa). • System Compatibility: Universally compatible with both single/dual wet ring pumps and modern dry vacuum systems. |
| Recycling & Cartridge Swap |
• Container Inspections: Crystal-clear upper and lower chamber walls for quick visual assessment of sediment fill levels. • Replacement Cycle: Containers must be hot-swapped every 12 months or when sediment lines reach the fill threshold (whichever occurs first). • Cartridge Universality: Uses the standard NXT-HG5-002CR replacement container for unified inventory management. |
| Warranty Protections |
• Air-Water Separator (Top): Standard 2-Year Manufacturer Warranty against assembly defects. • Collection Container (Bottom): Standard 1-Year Manufacturer Warranty. • Extended Warranty Program: The standard system protection is automatically upgraded to a 5-Year Warranty when utilizing Solmetex PowerScrub Vacuum Line Cleaner to maintain an EPA-compliant neutral pH between 6 and 8. |
