5.5.8 Empty the sediment container
In addition to other solid particles, a large proportion of the amalgam
residues are trapped in the sediment container by gravitational force.
Empty the sediment container in cycles that are appropriate for your work
method, but at least every 4 weeks.
The sediment container is present only if neither an amalgam separator,
a standard wet suction, or an air jet pump is installed.
Cleaning the suction system
The sediment container is exposed to secretions, saliva and blood that
contain bacteria. It is therefore important to clean the suction system
before removing the sediment container.
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].
