This document is an installation manual for the Belmont D-Series Dental Cabinetry System, specifically detailing the D-96 model. The manual provides comprehensive instructions for handling, assembly, and maintenance of the dental cabinetry, designed for sterilization centers.
Function Description:
The Belmont D-96 Dental Cabinetry System is a modular sterilization center designed for dental practices. It integrates various components including upper and lower cabinets, a sink, faucet, trash chute, soap dispenser, towel dispenser, cup dispenser, and shelving to create an organized and efficient workspace for sterilization procedures. The system is designed to be wall-mounted and floor-supported, offering both storage and functional areas for dental instruments and supplies. The cabinetry includes provisions for electrical and plumbing connections, ensuring a fully functional sterilization area.
Important Technical Specifications:
- Dimensions: The base cabinets are approximately 32.5 inches deep and 16 inches high (from the floor to the bottom of the upper cabinets). The overall height of the wall-mounted hang rail is 82 inches from the floor.
- Cabinetry Components:
- Base Cabinets: TB1234-24, USB1734-24, SB2634-24, B4D1634-24. These form the lower section of the cabinetry, providing storage and supporting the countertop and sink.
- Sterilization Cabinet: ST2684-26. This is a dedicated cabinet, likely for housing sterilization equipment, with provisions for electrical outlets.
- Wall Cabinets: W2824, WD1324, WT2924. These are upper cabinets for additional storage, some of which include lighting.
- Sink and Plumbing: The system includes a sink (C1), faucet (C2), strainer assembly (C3), and tailpiece assembly (C4). Access cutouts are provided for plumbing connections at the rear of the cabinet.
- Electrical Connections: Electrical connections are located at the rear of the sterilization cabinet and within the upper wall cabinets (WT2924 and TT1684-24). Sterilization lights in these upper cabinets are controlled by a customer-supplied light switch.
- Mounting System: The wall cabinets are mounted using a hang rail system (J1) that is secured to wall studs using appropriate fasteners (J2), such as #10 x 1-3/4" pan head screws for studs, #8 x 3/4" pan head screws for zip-it screws in drywall, or molly wall anchors for drywall.
- Leveling: Leg levelers (D3) are used with leveler bases (D4) to ensure the cabinet base is level, allowing for a minimum of 6 inches for the kickplate.
- Materials: The manual references various surface materials for cleaning instructions, including Laminate, Solid Surface, Cambria Quartz, and Stainless Steel. This suggests the cabinetry components are constructed from or finished with these materials.
Usage Features:
- Modular Design: The D-96 system is designed with modular components, allowing for flexible configurations to suit different dental office layouts.
- Integrated Storage: The system provides ample storage with various base and wall cabinets, including drawers and hinged doors.
- Dedicated Sterilization Area: The ST2684-26 sterilization cabinet is specifically designed to accommodate sterilization equipment, with integrated electrical outlets.
- Waste Management: A trash chute (B1) and slide-out trash basket holder (B2) are integrated into the countertop and a base cabinet, facilitating convenient waste disposal.
- Dispensers: The system includes provisions for a soap dispenser (C6), towel dispenser (K3), and cup dispenser (K4), promoting hygiene and efficiency.
- Adjustable Shelving: Glass shelves (J3, L2) in the wall cabinets are supported by adjustable shelf supports (J2, L1), allowing users to customize storage space.
- Lighting: Upper wall cabinets include sterilization lights, which are controlled by a customer-supplied light switch, providing illumination for the workspace.
- Concealed Hinges and Drawers: The cabinetry features concealed hinges and drawers with adjustment mechanisms for height, side, and depth, ensuring proper alignment and smooth operation.
Maintenance Features:
- Surface Cleaning Guidelines: The manual provides detailed cleaning instructions for various surface materials:
- Laminate/Melamine Surfaces: Clean with a damp cloth or sponge and mild soap. For tough stains, a paste of baking soda and water with a soft brush can be used, but excessive scrubbing should be avoided. Abrasive cleaners, strong chemicals (e.g., toilet bowl cleaners, hydrogen peroxide, oven cleaners, drain cleaners, chlorine bleach, coffee pot cleaners, hard water stain removers, fruit/berry juice, tub/tile cleaners) are explicitly prohibited.
- LG HI-MACS® Solid Surface Tops: Clean with a damp cloth or sponge and mild soap. Domestic all-purpose cleaner can be used for stains, or a bleaching agent for tough stains (not to be left on for more than five minutes). Acids, methyl chloride, or acetone should be avoided.
- Cambria® Quartz Work Surfaces: Clean with a damp cloth or sponge and mild soap. Abrasive, strong alkaline, acid, free radical, or oxidized cleaners (including bleach, oven cleaners, Comet®, Soft Scrub®, SOS®, pumice, batteries, paint removers, furniture strippers, tarnish/silver cleaners) are prohibited. Abrasive or harsh scrub pads should not be used, and sealers or topical treatments are not recommended as they can dull the gloss.
- Hinge and Drawer Adjustment: Instructions are provided for adjusting concealed hinges (for height) and drawers (for height and side adjustment) to maintain proper alignment and functionality over time. This involves loosening specific screws (B) and adjusting others (A) before re-tightening.
- Component Replacement: While not explicitly detailed as a maintenance feature, the modular nature of the system implies that individual components could be replaced if damaged, extending the life of the cabinetry system.
- Plumbing and Electrical Access: Access cutouts at the rear of the cabinet facilitate maintenance and repair of plumbing and electrical connections.
