Maintenance
It is important to keep your bath clean. Not only will contaminated liquid
reduce the performance of the bath, it may also damage it. Change the
cleaning liquid regularly. Your cleaning process will determine how often to
change the liquid – the more soiled your items, the more often you will
need to change the liquid. Change the cleaning liquid at least daily.
Before cleaning the equipment always switch off and disconnect it from the
power supply and allow it to cool down to less than 40
°C. Clean by wiping
with a damp soapy cloth.
The base of the bath generates the ultrasonic activity by vibrating at very
high speeds. If any contaminants are in contact with the bath, they act as
an abrasive, causing wear on the metal surface. In extreme cases, the
bath will develop holes and start to leak.
Portable Appliance Testing should be conducted with water in the bath.
Service

More regular periodic testing can be done by the operator to ensure that
your ultrasonic bath is operating at optimum efficiency.
There are no user serviceable parts inside the unit. All service and repair
must be conducted by suitably trained and qualified engineers approved by
