How to Choose a Settling Tank

How to choose the right settling tank for a dental laboratory or pottery workshop?

|

Why use a settling tank?

In a dental laboratory , as in a pottery workshop , the rinsing water is loaded with solid residues (plaster, heavy dust, earth, filings, etc.).

  • These particles can clog pipes and harm the environment.
  • The settling tank is an essential piece of equipment for separating suspended matter from the water before it is discharged.
  • This device protects networks, reduces plumbing work and complies with environmental regulations.

The criteria for choosing a settling tank:

  • Treatment capacity: Choose a tank that is suitable for the amount of water used daily. A small laboratory does not have the same needs as a high-production craft workshop.
  • Number of compartments: A multi-stage tank (3 to 4 chambers) improves the efficiency of progressive decantation .
  • Ease of maintenance: Choose a model with easy access to the drain hatches, with a removable filtration system.
  • Manufacturing material: High-density polyethylene is strong, lightweight and resistant to corrosion.
  • Compatibility with your equipment: Check that the sink can be connected to existing sinks or workstations.
  • Compliance: Ensure it meets local wastewater discharge standards.

Choose according to the activity: dental or pottery:

In the dental laboratory:

The tank must be able to effectively filter residues of dental plaster , resins, composites or alginate.

  • Some models include a built-in plaster separator for double protection.

In the pottery workshop:

The workshops must manage the decantation of clay, earth, enamel and fine dust particles.

  • A large capacity tank with slow settling is recommended.

Our recommendations at Massilia Dental:

We offer compact, high-performance, easy-to-install models, adapted to the constraints of professionals.

💡 Tip: Don't wait until your drains are clogged. Install a settling tank when designing your workspace.
