Step 4:
Insert objects to be treated
Before every sonication it is necessary to check whether the sonication
fl
uid needs to be cleaned
or replaced.
Direct sonication
Hang the insert basket with the goods to be treated, or place the basket
holder in the oscillating tank. Place the inset basket on the basket holder.
Check that the objects to be treated are fully covered with
fl
uid.
With every object inserted, the
fi
ll level is to be controlled.
Indirect sonication
Place the positioning lid atop the oscillating tank and hang the inset
beakers from the positioning lid, or hang the insert tub directly in the
oscillating tank.
Immersion depth for inset beakers is min. 2 cm.
Control
fi
ll level (contact liquid).
For cleaning tasks
Place the objects to be cleaned in the appropriate accessories, in doing so please note:
• Evenly distribute parts, do not stack them.
• An overloading of the basket or inset beaker reduces the ultrasound effect (the ultrasound is
absorbed).
• Place the more heavily soiled side facing downward.
• Parts with joints are to be fully opened before placing inside.
• Delicate parts are not to come into contact with one another - for positioning, use special
accessories such as silicone knob mats if necessary, see chapter 7.
• Due to the design, the ultrasound effect is weaker on the outlet side. Heavily contaminated
objects should not be placed in the basket over the outlet.
For indirect sonication of
fl
uids
Fill sample vessel(s), in doing so please note:
• It is possible to treat multiple sample vessels with different
fl
uids at the same time.
• When treating small quantities of combustible
fl
uids in sample vessels, the country-speci
fi
c
guidelines/regulations that are currently in effect are to be observed.
Step 5:
Ultrasound - Operation
Fundamentally, the sonication time is to be as short as possible in order to protect the objects to
be treated and the oscillating tank.
In the case of disinfection
fl
uids, the length of time will depend on the concentration of the
respectively used preparation.
In the case of stubborn residue, conduct sonication for a longer time if necessary.
Place lid on top.
Set the desired sonication time and switch on ultrasound, see chapter 3.1.1.
