HelloI had already filled in the original form. I have re-attached it; you may change the name to 

American Dental Accessories.

I have done my best to provide what I could. We do not carry the brand Avprox.

HelloI noticed that your spreadsheet is titled American Dental Association - we are not the American 

Dental Association. We are American Dental Accessories. Are you aware of this?

Subject: Request for Amalgam Separator Information 

Dear Sir/Madam, 

I am a contractor providing technical support to EPA's Engineering and Analysis Division 

(EAD) in developing Effluent Limitations Guidelines for amalgam discharges from dental 

offices. As part of this effort, I am collecting information about amalgam separator treatment 

effectiveness and costs. I have listed the information that I currently have about your models in 

the attached spreadsheet. The highlighted cells display the information I am missing. 

Specifically, I am interested in the following information about your Rasch AD-1500, Asdex-9 

and Asdex AS-20 models:
Certification/Testing Standard (ISO, EPA/ETV, Other)

Unit Capacity (# of chairs)

Flow Capacity (L/min)

Dimensions (HxWxD)

Unit Cost

Installation Cost

Replacement Parts Necessary (Cannister, Filter, etc.)

Replacement Frequency

Recycling Charge if Separate

First Year Costs

Other Year Costs

We appreciate your assistance in gathering the correct amalgam separator information. If you 

have any questions regarding this request or if you would prefer to discuss this information over 

the phone, please call me at (703) 633-1119. 

Thank you,

Kim
