Ultrasonic cleaning process
Please observe the following instructions before starting the ultrasonic cleaning process.
It is the user’s responsibility to check the cleaning results.
CAUTION
Risk of scalding by hot surfaces and cleaning liquid!
Ultrasonic energy is physically transformed into heat.
The unit and the cleaning liquid in the tank heat up during ultrasonic operation even with
the heating switched off.
During permanent operation (
∞) with cover temperatures exceeding 60°C can be reached.
During permanent operation with cover and heating temperatures exceeding 80°C can be
reached.
Do not reach inside the bath.
If necessary touch unit and basket with protecting gloves!
CAUTION
Ultrasonic units can produce annoying sounds.
Wear personal ear protection devices when working close to an ultrasonic unit which is
operated without cover.
ATTENTION
Sensitive surfaces can be damaged when exposed to ultrasound over prolonged periods,
particularly at low cleaning frequencies.
Ensure that sensitive surfaces are exposed to ultrasonic acitivity for a suitable period only.
If in doubt check the cleaning progress regularly and observe the state of the surface
material.
ATTENTION
Ultrasonic energy is physically transformed into heat.
The unit and the cleaning liquid in the tank heat up during ultrasonic operation even with
the heating switched off.
During permanent operation with cover temperatures exceeding 60°C can be reached.
For the cleaning of temperature-sensitive items please take into consideration the heating-
up of the cleaning liquid.
Please observe that the temperature of the cleaning media remains below 42°C when
cleaning parts contaminated with fresh protein or blood.
