Technical information
The need to degas:
gases are present in tap water. In order to allow optimum
ultrasonic activity, these gases need to be driven out of the cleaning solution.
The time needed to degas the liquid varies depending on the amount of gas present in
the liquid. Ultrawave recommends a degas period of 5 minutes.
Increased “cold
-
boiling” at the liquid surface indicates that the liquid is degassed. Once
the liquid is degassed, the bath is immediately useable.
Cleaning fluids:
Ultrasonic baths require the presence of a cleaning detergent to work
effectively. Ultrawave have several cleaning fluids which have been specifically
formulated for ultrasonic cleaning of industrial items.
Consult Ultrawave before using any detergents, solutions or chemicals not approved by
them
The effect of heat:
Heating the liquid in the bath will aid the cleaning process.
Normally a temperature of 20-50°C is sufficient to accelerate the process.
Ultrasonic activity itself will heat up the liquid at a rate of approximately 5-10°C per
hour. If the
unit
is operated continuously, it may eventually reach the
‘over temp’ state
and set off the audible alarm because the liquid is too hot.
Cleaning time:
The time required to clean components will vary depending on the
nature and level of contamination to be removed.
