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.
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.
NOTE
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.
NOTE
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.
