Maintenance and cleaning
To achieve an optimum lifespan for the ultrasonic bath, cleaning and maintenance are
to be conducted regularly.
CAUTION!
Disconnect the bath from the mains before each cleaning / maintenance.
Do not rinse or immerse the ultrasonic bath in water and do not expose it to splash
water.
No guarantee is provided for damage caused by the use of unsuitable disinfection
agents or detergents.
5.1
Cleaning and care
Oscillating tank
The oscillating tank of an ultrasonic bath is a wearing part.
It is continuously exposed to cavitation during ultrasound operation. Dirt particles
remaining in the tank abrade and damage the tank surface due to the movement of the
fl
uid, therefore
• Thoroughly and frequently rinse the oscillating tank with water and wipe dry using a
soft cloth.
• Regularly remove residue from the edges of the oscillating tank using a commercial
stainless steel cleaning product without any abrasive additives.
• Do not use steel wool, scrapers or graters for cleaning / maintenance.
• Metal particles that remain on the stainless steel surface as well as rust particles
from the water pipe system penetrate the passive protective layer of the stainless
steel. The stainless steel is "activated" in this process and begins to rust. The
extraneous rust produces localised corrosion of the stainless steel. For this reason,
remove metal parts such as screws,
fi
lings, etc. from the oscillating tank, and
immediately remove rust stains using a soft cloth and a commercial stainless steel
cleaning product without abrasive additives.
• W 300:
The free movement and function of the
fl
oat used for
fi
ll level control – on the front,
left – must be checked from time to time.
Housing
• Do not use any abrasive cleaners, only commercial care products without abrasive
additives.
• Wipe down only the exterior of the housing with a damp cloth and leave to dry or
wipe dry.
