    E Safe Light
    F Water
    G Tray of water

    1. How often should the chemicals be changed?


    Following manufacturer’s instructions.

    2. What is the purpose of ‘E’?


    Red/orange safe light - Films are sensitive to blue light therefore a special red/orange safety light
    is used to allow the staff member who is processing the film to see what they are doing without
    ruining the film.

    3. What is the correct temperature and time of immersion for radiographs in tank ‘B’?
    20C - 5 minutes.
    21C - 41⁄2 minutes.
    22C - 4 minutes. Strongly to follow manufacturer’s guidance
    4. What checks need to be carried out at the beginning of the day?
     Check fluid levels are sufficient.
     Check temperature.
     Run test film - ensure solutions are not spent.
     Check safe light/no natural light entering dark room.

    5. How do you dispose of the chemicals safely?


    The dental practice has a legal obligation to comply with the following legislation:
    • EU Waste Framework Directive 2011.
    • The Environmental Protection Act 1990.
    • The Controlled Waste Regulations 2012.
    • Duty of Care Regulations.
    • The Carriage of Dangerous Goods Regulations
    Consignment notes are issued by specially licensed waste disposal companies to any premises
    where they are contracted to collect and dispose of hazardous or special waste. Both the
    developer and fixer solutions are considered as SPECIAL WASTE.
    Both the developer and fixer solutions are considered as SPECIAL WASTE,
    as they give off powerful fumes that can be inhaled and which irritate the
    respiratory system. They require separate storage as waste products, and
    must be disposed of in an environmentally friendly manner by specialist
    waste contractors.
    ‘Special’ and hazardous waste is kept in special containers and collected by an authorised
    contractor and relevant records kept. Chemicals cannot be disposed of via the sewers without
    written permission from the appropriate water company.

    6. Tutor feedback
