1.1
Mode of operation
The ultrasound generator transforms the mains energy input (mains frequency 50 or 60 Hz)
into high-frequency energy with a frequency of 20 kHz. The ultrasonic converter connected
to the ultrasound generator converts the high-frequency energy into ultrasound. The emitted
ultrasound has a high mechanical energy that is used for a wide range of applications.
Thus, mechanical de
fl
ections with the same frequency of 20 kHz are generated on the tip of
the probe and transferred into the sonication medium as ultrasonic waves with a high power
intensity. The amplitude is held constant via a signal feedback by the ultrasonic converter
(AMPLICHRON
®
circuitry), independently from the applied load, as long as the maximum power
allowed is not exceeded. Thanks to these measures, the reproducibility of the process parameters
is guaranteed and validation of the process is supported.
Di
ff
erent sieves can be screwed onto the coupling piece mounted on the ultrasonic converter.
The coupling piece works in a similar manner to a booster horn, in that it acts as a mechanical
transformer and allows manifold mechanical ampli
fi
cation of the incoming ultrasonic amplitude.
1.2
Intended use
SONOPULS ultrasonic homogenisers generate high-intensity, high-amplitude ultrasound
for coupling to work tools.
1.3
CE conformity
SONOPULS ultrasonic homogenisers satisfy the CE-marking criteria in the European Union:
- Low-voltage Directive
- Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive
- RoHS Directive
in their currently valid versions.
A declaration of conformity can be requested from the manufacturer by providing
the serial number.
