Filling of the unit
Shut the drain duct before you fill the tank (horizontal position of
the turning knob for draining the tank –
see Section 4.6
).
Fill the cleaning tank with a sufficient quantity of a suitable
cleaning liquid before switch-on.
The recommended optimum filling level is approx. 2/3 of the
tank.
Caution!
A filling level below 6 cm may lead to a permanent
loss of heating performance.
The marked maximum filling level indicates the recommended
maximum filling level with immersed cleaning items (
see also
Section 4.4. Fig 4.4
).
Ensure that the chosen cleaning agent is suitable for treatment
in an ultrasonic bath and observe the instructions on dosage
and the compatibility of the material.
We recommend to use the cleaning media listed in
Section 8.3
Flammable cleaning media are generally prohibited for use in
an ultrasonic bath. Please observe the safety warnings in
Section 8.1
(Solvents).
Risk of fire and explosion!
Never use flammable liquids or solvents directly in an ultrasonic
cleaning bath.
Use the cleaning chemicals listed in
Section 8.3.
Ultrasonic activity increases the vaporisation of liquids and
creates a very fine mist which can catch fire on any ignition
source.
Observe the instructions on limitations of use given in
S
ection 8.1.
Risk of damage to the ultrasonic tank!
Do not use any acid cleaning agents (pH value < 7) directly in
the stainless steel tank if the cleaning items or the
contamination of the cleaning items contain halogenides
(fluorides, chlorides or bromides). The same applies to NaCl
solutions.
Use the cleaning chemicals listed in
Section 8.3.
.
The stainless steel tank can be destroyed by crevice corrosion
in a very short time. Substances that cause crevice corrosion
can be contained in household cleaners.
Observe the instructions on limitations of use given in
S
ection 8.2.
