5. 

Insert Timer plug into the footswitch socket on rear panel of generator. 

6. 

Adjust the power setting to the appropriate intensity level for your sample. 

7. 

Set the desired time on the timer.  Once timer is set the probe will be activated.  
Unit will shut off at end of timed cycle.  Repeat as necessary to process all 
samples.

 

 

Operation with optional Plug-in Footswitch

   

 

The footswitch allows the user to manually activate the probe.  The user may switch the 
probe on or off at their own discretion by depressing the footswitch. The footswitch is 

FRPPRQO\XVHGIRU³SXOVHGVRQLFDWLRQRUIRUKDQGV

-free" operation, allowing the operator to 

manipulate the sample with their hands.  

 

For footswitch operation 

1. 

Turn the power control knob to zero. 

2. 

Turn the power switch on. 

3. 

Allow digital reading to stabilize at ~ 0.0. 

4. 

Place the probe into your sample at mid-depth. 

5. 

Insert Footswitch plug into the footswitch jack on rear panel of generator. 

6. 

Adjust the power setting to the appropriate intensity level for your sample. 

7. 

Depress footswitch to activate output. 

8. 

Hold footswitch down for desired period of operation. 

9.  

Release footswitch to de-activate output.  Repeat as necessary to process all 

  samples. 
 

CAUTION: 

If Footswitch or Timer plug is removed from jack at rear of unit, then the unit will 

remain on indefinitely.  In this event turn main power switch off to disengage unit.

Care of MICROPROBE Tips

 

 
Proper care of MICROPROBE tips is essential for good performance and long service life.  
Tightness of the probe, cleanliness of the mating surfaces and condition of the probe tip are 
all very important to overall performance.  The probe tip is continuously subjected to intense 
shock waves, which cause cavitational erosion of the probe's tip.  Keeping the tip face 
smooth and polished will significantly improve sonication efficiency and increase the useful 
life of the probe.  The following maintenance procedures should be performed weekly: 
 

x

  Check the tightness of the probe periodically with the open-end wrenches provided. 

x

  Keep the stud threads and the mating surfaces between the probe and the (black) front  

driver clean and dry. 

x

  Check the probe tip for signs of cavitational erosion and pitting. 

x

  Polish the probe tip with a very fine emery cloth or sandpaper (#600) to remove any 

surface scratches or pitting. 

x

  Do not file or grind the probe tips as this could bend or break them. 

x

  Replace probes periodically, especially if they no longer tune properly, are badly pitted or 

eroded, or if they are bent or cracked.
