Metal Parts
·
In the ultrasonic bath, preheat 1 part OmegaSupreme with 10 parts clean water to a
temperature of 150
˚F.
·
Place the metal parts into the basket with the cavity containing heaviest residue
facing the bottom of the basket.
·
Submerge the basket into the bath and rotate the housings (if applicable) keeping
them underneath the surface to allow air bubbles to be removed from the part.
·
Clean the part for 5 minutes.
·
Once completed, rotate the part 180
˚ if the part facing opposite the ultrasonic
transducers is heavily soiled.
·
If necessary, clean the part for an additional 5 minutes.
·
Once the part is cleaned, remove from the bath and rinse using water that is 150
˚F.
·
Blow off the excess water using compressed air.
·
Due to the heat of the metal, after being removed from the bath, it will dry quickly, on
its own (
“flash dry”).
Saw Blades
·
In the ultrasonic bath, preheat 1 part OmegaChem with 10 parts clean water to a
temperature of 160
˚F.
·
Arrange the saw blades into the basket vertically and space them so they don
’t
“nest” together.
·
Submerge the basket and clean for 5
– 10 minutes, depending on contamination and
number of blades in basket.
·
Once clean, remove from the bath and rinse with hot water that is 160
˚F.
·
Blow off excess moisture with compressed air.
·
Due to the heat of the metal, after being removed from the bath, it will dry quickly, on
its own (
“flash dry”).
·
Blades must then be immediately placed into a rust protectant solution: WD40,
machining oil or a silicon protectant such as OmegaRust Protectant to prevent
immediate rusting.
