Operation

/5

– The switch lights up when the heating is on, even if the target 

temperature has been reached.

– The temperature control is permanently set at 65 °C. 

Heating on single-light models

Turn on the heating by turning the knob to the desired tempera-

ture.

– The indicator light will light up.

– When the target temperature is reached, the indicator light goes 

out.

Heating on dual-light models

Turn on the heating by turning the knob to the desired tempera-

ture.

– The yellow and white indicator lights will light up.

– When the target temperature is reached, the yellow indicator 

light goes out.

5.7 Degassing sonication fluid

Sonication fluid that has been freshly filled or left in the ultrasonic 

oscillating tank must be degassed before use. Degassing the soni-

cation fluid increases the effect of the ultrasound. 

• Cover the ultrasonic oscillating tank with the lid if available.

• Switch the ultrasound on for degassing. The degassing time is:

– Volume of sonication fluid up to 10 litres: 

10 minutes

– Volume of sonication fluid over 10 litres: 

30 minutes

Information

The ultrasound noise becomes quieter during degassing. This 

means that the ultrasonic effect is increasing.
