GipEx Tabs flocculant for sedimentation tank Dental settling tank 14 L Jeb – stainless steel lid (under-sink)
Référence: H92171
Economical 14 L sedimentation tank with stainless steel lid
This 14-litre sedimentation tank helps the dental laboratory better manage wastewater loaded with plaster, ceramic and other heavy particles.
It promotes simple gravity sedimentation before discharge into the drainage system.
Its design with removable partitions makes routine maintenance of the wet workstation easier.
Quick summary
Why choose this sedimentation tank for a dental laboratory?
In a dental laboratory, wastewater can quickly carry residues of plaster, investment material, filings or fine mineral matter.
This economical sedimentation tank provides a simple technical solution to slow the passage of these particles and improve separation before discharge.
Its compact size is well suited to an under-sink installation, while the stainless steel lid offers a cleaner and more durable finish in the laboratory environment.
For facilities looking for an accessible, functional and easy-to-maintain solution, this model represents a very good balance between space requirement, sedimentation efficiency and ease of use.

This type of sedimentation tank is particularly recommended for laboratories using a plaster trimmer intensively or carrying out operations that generate large amounts of mineral sludge.
This Jeb under-sink sedimentation tank is an economical alternative to Mestra-type sedimentation tanks.
Laboratory applications
This sedimentation tank is particularly useful at workstations where water carries solid residues likely to clog pipework.
- Work with dental plaster and model bases.
- Cleaning equipment after modelling or investment procedures.
- Rinsing stations linked to polishing or materials such as plaster.
- Daily wastewater management under a technical laboratory sink.
Instructions for use
Install the tank under the sink between the outlet and the drainage system.
Connect the inlet and outlet to the specified Ø 40 mm diameter.
Check the tightness of the whole assembly before use.
Allow the particles to settle naturally in the internal compartments.
Open the tank at regular intervals to remove deposits and rinse the partitions.
Compatibility and integration
This model is designed for installation on a standard Ø 40 mm drainage system.
It is suitable for laboratories that want to add a pre-sedimentation step without setting up a complex system.
Its format makes it easier to integrate under a technical sink, provided there is sufficient clearance in width, depth and height.
Installation advice
Before ordering, it is advisable to check the space available under the cabinet or sink.
You should also allow practical access to the lid for inspection and cleaning operations.
A clean, stable and easily accessible installation improves service life and simplifies routine maintenance.
Care and maintenance
The tank should be checked regularly to avoid excessive accumulation of sludge and compact deposits.
The three removable partitions make internal dismantling easier for more thorough rinsing.
Periodic maintenance reduces the risk of odours, blockages and loss of sedimentation efficiency.
Lab tip
To further improve the separation of fine matter, the use of a flocculant for sedimentation tanks may be useful depending on the laboratory’s workload.
This approach helps bring suspended particles together and can make tank cleaning and sludge management easier.

How to choose a sedimentation tank?
The choice mainly depends on the volume of loaded wastewater treated each day, the space available under the sink, and the acceptable cleaning frequency within the laboratory organisation.
A 14-litre model is often relevant for regular use with a good balance between footprint and capacity.
For heavier requirements or more intensively used workstations, a larger volume may be more comfortable in order to reduce the frequency of maintenance operations.

FAQ — sedimentation tank for dental laboratory
Where should this sedimentation tank be installed?
This model is generally installed under the laboratory sink, between the water outlet and the drainage system.
You should check the available space, usable height and connection diameter before installation.
What is the purpose of a sedimentation tank in a dental laboratory?
It is used to retain part of the solid residues present in wastewater, especially heavy particles from plaster, heavy filings or other mineral materials.
This pre-sedimentation helps limit clogging in the pipework and improves wet workstation management.
How often should it be cleaned?
The frequency depends on how intensively the laboratory uses it and on the amount of deposits generated each week.
Regular visual inspection is recommended so action can be taken before excessive accumulation builds up in the compartments.
Is a flocculant mandatory?
A flocculant is not systematically mandatory.
However, it can be very useful for accelerating the agglomeration of fine particles and improving sedimentation in certain working conditions.
Is this tank suitable for all dental laboratories?
It is suitable for many laboratories looking for a simple and compact solution for managing loaded wastewater.
However, it remains important to validate compatibility with the under-sink space, the operating flow and local requirements regarding equipment and drainage.
Does this tank replace verification of local regulations?
No.
This product is a suitable technical solution for improving pre-sedimentation of effluents, but final compliance must always be assessed according to the local rules applicable to the laboratory.
