Safety precautions regarding the operation and handling of high voltage equipment is 
prominently indicated in the instruction manual.  This letter serves as a safety reminder to the 
operator to visually and physically inspect the unit to insure optimum and safe performance. 
 
This inspection should be scheduled as a routine maintenance procedure, and done with the 
Ultrasonic Liquid Processor in the OFF position with the unit unplugged from the AC power 
source. 
 
Long exposure to acids or caustics results in corroding metal parts or components.  Check the 
rear of the generator, convertor, and cables for any signs of rust or discoloration.  If discoloration 
is found, move the Ultrasonic Liquid Processor away from the source of the contaminant. 
 
Examine the condition of the high voltage cable, which attaches the convertor to the power 
supply.  Inspect the wire insulation for damage, such as burning from hot plate contact, or wear 
or breakage from extended use or rough handling. 
 
Inspect the cable connectors by gently pulling on the wire while holding the body of the 
connector.  The cable connector and rubber boot protector at the end of the cable should be 
tight to the wire, with no movement possible and no cracks or frayed ends visible.  Do not 
subject the cable ends to severe bending loads while performing these tests.  Return the 
convertor assembly immediately if your cable does not pass the above inspection. 
 
Should the convertor/cable assembly be subjected to misuse, such as dropping or a severe 
pulling force on the wire itself, the cable must be inspected as above. 
 
Should the Ultrasonic Liquid Processor stop functioning, shut the unit off and inspect cable as 
above BEFORE any other action is taken. 
 

DO NOT USE A CABLE WITH BROKEN END CONNECTIONS, EXPOSED WIRES OR FRAYED 
INSULATION.  HIGH VOLTAGE IS PRESENT IN CABLE AND MAY POSE A SHOCK HAZARD.  DO 
NOT TOUCH CONVERTOR ASSEMBLY UNTIL POWER SWITCH OF GENERATOR IS IN OFF 
POSITION AND UNIT IS UNPLUGGED. 

 
If the operator is in doubt as to the condition of the unit, call 800-694-9612 to speak with a 
customer representative for prompt attention. 
 
In general use, the cable assembly should not be used to carry the convertor or pull it toward the 
user.  Make certain the cable always has slack and is never tensioned.  Move the generator or 
convertor assembly closer to one another to accomplish this.  If this is not possible, contact 
Qsonica to obtain a longer assembly.
