Référence: H11056
Mestra 14 L Sedimentation Tank — Under-sink Ø40
The Mestra 14 L sedimentation tank is installed under a Ø40 mm sink to retain heavy residues (plaster, dust, metal particles, ceramics) before wastewater discharge. It protects laboratory drainage systems and helps prevent pipe blockages in wet workstations.
- 14 L capacity
- Transparent lid
- Collector bag included
- Ø40 mm installation
Why install an under-sink sedimentation tank Ø40 in a laboratory?
At wash stations, dental plaster and finishing material residues accumulate quickly. A 14-litre sedimentation tank captures these particles upstream of the drainage network, reducing maintenance operations and extending the lifespan of wastewater pipes.
Key advantages of the Mestra 14 L sedimentation tank
- Efficient sedimentation of heavy waste: plaster, resin, ceramics, metal particles.
- Visual inspection via the transparent lid.
- Easy maintenance: replace the collector bag at ~70% capacity.
- Durable technical plastic resistant to cleaning agents.
- Ø40 mm compatibility for standard under-sink installation.
Dental applications and instructions for use
Applications
- Rinsing / washing stations in dental laboratories.
- Retention of plaster, investment, resin, ceramic residues.
- Drainage protection in wet finishing areas.
For intensive use (ceramics/clay), installing two tanks in series can improve filtration efficiency.

Yes, sedimentation also retains heavy clay and ceramic residues. For intensive use, additional filtration may be recommended (e.g. two tanks in series) to increase retention capacity.
How is the tank installed under the sink?
It is installed on the Ø40 mm drain pipe between the trap and the main outlet. Installation is simple and usually requires no specific tools (depending on configuration).
Is the lid easy to handle?
Yes, it can be easily removed for visual inspection and collector bag replacement. Closure is secured with a quick-locking metal clamp.
