Life cycle of the ultrasonic cleaner
The ultrasonic tank and particularly the ultrasound transmitting surfaces are wear parts. The
changes on the surfaces that occur after a certain operating period are visible first as grey areas
and later on as material abrasions, the so-called cavitational erosion.
In order to slow down the wear and tear as far as possible we make the tanks of a special highly
cavitation-proof stainless steel.
To prolong the service life of your ultrasonic unit even more we recommend to observe the
following instructions:
•
Gently clean the surfaces from any residues of removed contamination, in particular of
polishing pastes, metal particles, and flash rust (wipe, rinse, etc.). Any abrasive particles
from removed contaminations (e.g. polishing pastes) must be cleared away as often and as
thoroughly as possible (replace the cleaning bath).
•
Use suitable cleaning chemicals, with particular caution concerning the kind of removed
contamination (see instructions
Section 6.2
Note on
Risk of damage to the ultrasonic tank!
and information thereon).
•
Abrasive particles from removed contaminations (e.g. polishing pastes) must be drained and
removed from the cleaning tank as frequently as possible (exchange the cleaning bath).
•
Exchange the cleaning liquid regularly.
•
Do not operate the ultrasound unnecessarily; switch off after the cleaning process.
