• Check the filling level. The goods to be treated must be completely submerged
in the fluid. Inset beakers for indirect sonication need to be submerged at
least 2 cm in the sonication fluid.
• Remove air bubbles from cavities. Rotate the objects accordingly. Remove air
bubbles under inset beakers. The ultrasound only works where the fluid is in
contact with the goods to be treated or the inset beaker.
• Position the side with greater soiling so it is facing downwards. Insert objects
with joints (e.g. scissors or tongs) in open condition so that the whole surface
is optimally reached by the sonication fluid.
5.9 Removing goods to be treated
WARNING
Risk of burns
The sonication fluid, goods to be treated, the surface of the ultrasonic bath as
well as accessories can be very hot.
– Do not touch the surface of the ultrasonic bath or accessories like the lid. Do
not reach into the sonication fluid.
– Allow the goods to be treated to cool down before you touch them.
Switch the ultrasound off before you remove the goods to be treated.
Do not remove the goods to be treated with your hands. For example, carefully
lift out the insert basket with the goods to be treated and place it on a flat sur-
face.
Rinse goods to be treated with clear water.
Do not leave the goods to be treated in the sonication fluid for too long. This can
damage the goods.
5.10 Emptying the ultrasonic oscillating tank
Soiling on the bottom of the ultrasonic oscillating tank reduces the ultrasonic
nominal power. If there is visible contamination in the sonication fluid, drain and
clean the ultrasonic oscillating tank.
Also note the agent manufacturer's information on the life of the sonication fluid.
Replace used sonication fluid completely. Do not freshen it up by adding fluid.
Procedure
1. Switch off the ultrasound.
2. Open the drain.
3. Rinse the ultrasonic oscillating tank thoroughly.
4. Wipe the ultrasonic bath dry with a soft cloth.
5. If necessary, disinfect the ultrasonic bath with a suitable surface disinfectant.
