1.1
Mode of operation
SONOREX ultrasonic baths use the e
ff
ect of cavitation. Under the bottom of the
oscillating tank they contain piezoelectric transducers, the energy of which is
transferred to the bath liquid with ultrasound frequency as mechanical oscillations.
As a result, microscopically small bubbles are continuously formed in the bath liquid,
releasing energy upon imploding and generating local microcurrents. This process is
called cavitation. During the cleaning process, contamination is "blasted" from the hard
surfaces of the objects being treated. At the same time, dirt particles are dispersed and
fresh bath liquid
fl
ows in.
During sonochemical processes, cavitation may have a catalytic e
ff
ect, e.g., with the
production of stable emulsions or the rapid degasi
fi
cation of
fl
uids with a high gas
content.
1.2
Intended purpose
SONOREX TECHNIK ultrasonic baths are intended for the sonication of aqueous
liquids. They work on the basis of low-frequency ultrasound and can be used in
versatile ways. Their main application is the gentle and intensive cleaning of objects of
diverse shapes, types and sizes.
Sonication is always carried out together with a suitable preparation that is added to
the bath liquid. In order to use the device as intended, a basket or other inset beaker
is required, into which objects are placed during sonication. Only in this manner is the
optimum di
ff
usion of the ultrasound guaranteed.
The ultrasonic bath is operated from the front. The operation is usually carried out
on a table.
1.3
CE conformity
The devices ful
fi
l the CE marking criteria of the following European Directives:
- 2014 / 35 / EU - Low Voltage Directive
- 2014 / 30 / EU - EMC Guideline
- 2011 / 65 / EU - RoHS Directive
in their currently valid versions.
A declaration of conformity can be requested from the manufacturer by providing the
serial number.
