Thoroughly read and understand instructions prior to installing, operating and

The waste stream treated by the Solmetex Hg5® is generated by a dental vacuum
system and as such may contain concentrations of solid and soluble mercury and
silver. Because of this, any spills should be considered hazardous and should be
handled in accordance with standard hazardous materials (HAZMAT) handling
procedures.
Full Collection Containers are a HAZMAT and should be handled, stored and
disposed of according to regulations applying to hazardous waste containing
mercury. Always wear protective gear when handling full Solmetex Hg5® collection
containers (latex gloves, safety glasses or face shield) and dispose of per local
