Ultrasonic cleaning detergents 

 

Detergents  are  a  vital  component  in  the  ultrasonic  cleaning  process,  aiding  in  the 
removal and loosening of debris from the surfaces of items placed in the tank while also 
intensifying the power of the ultrasonic activity.  
 
Ultrawave  offer  a  range  of  specially  formulated  ultrasonic  detergents  for  use  in 
applications including medical and heavier industrial cleaning requirements. 
 
Ultrawave recommend using 2-5% of detergent by volume (if unsure, start with 2%). The 
required  dosage  will  depend  on  your  cleaning  application  and  the  level  of 
contamination.  Items  should  be  rinsed  with  water  and  dried  immediately  after 
processing.
