5.5.6 Change the amalgam rotor
Amalgam residues and other solid particles are trapped in the amalgam
rotor according to the centrifugal principle.
When the
Amalg display appears on the EasyPad display or the status
column of the touchscreen, the amalgam rotor is almost full and must be
replaced as soon as possible. An acoustic signal sounds when the rotor
is completely filled. In this case, a safety shutoff function ensures that the
rotor is exchanged before the treatment center can be used again.
Regardless of whether or not the
Amalg display lights up, the amalgam
rotor must be replaced at least once a year.

Cleaning the suction system
The amalgam rotor is exposed to secretions, saliva and blood that contain
bacteria. It is therefore important to clean the suction system before
changing the amalgam rotor.
If the treatment center is equipped with the chemical suction hose
cleaning option, see "Cleaning the suction hoses" [ → 235]. If this option
is not available, see "Cleaning vacuum system using cleaning adapter in
the cuspidor or via external container" [ → 242].

CAUTION
Amalgam residues must not enter the public sewage system.
Amalgam is a mercury compound that is hazardous to water.
➢ Do not dispose of amalgam residues in a sink.
➢ Collect amalgam residues, e.g. from the gold trap of the cuspidor
bowl, in a closed container with water. Dispose of amalgam
residues when replacing the amalgam rotor by filling the amalgam
residues into the amalgam rotor.
CAUTION
Disposal of the amalgam rotor
When a replacement rotor is supplied, a package for the return shipment
of the filled amalgam rotor is attached.
Authorize only certified waste management companies to dispose of
rotors.
