7.1
Heating up of the cleaning liquid
(units with heating)
Depending of the degree and kind of contamination and on the
cleaning medium used it might be required to heat up the
cleaning liquid. For a quick heating-up process and in order to
prevent unnecessary energy losses we recommend to use a
cover (optional accessory equipment).
The ultrasonic energy is transformed physically into heat. Low
set temperatures can be exceeded during ultrasonic operation.
The cleaning effect through ultrasonic cavitation is reduced
when cleaning with high temperatures. We recommend not to
exceed a temperature of 80°C inside the tank.
For the recommended cleaning temperature please observe the
product information of the used elma clean cleaner.
High temperatures! Risk of burning and scalding!
Cleaning liquid, cleaning tank, casing, cover, basket and
cleaning items can heat up considerably.
Do not reach inside the bath.
If necessary wear protective gloves when touching unit and
basket!
Cleaning temperature recommendations in the medical sector:
Please observe that the temperature of the cleaning media
remains below 42 °C when cleaning parts contaminated with
fresh protein or blood.
Please observe the temperature even when using low or no
heating.
Press the on/off key to start the unit.
Set the desired cleaning temperature at the temperature
selector switch for the temperature preselection.
The heater is active until the preselected temperature is
reached.
The LED indicator lights while the heater is active.
The LED extinguishes as soon as the preselected temperature
is reached.
