7. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
7.1 CAUTION
 Do not operate the power supply unless it is connected to the converter.
 Never allow liquid to spill into the converter.
 Do not allow a Microtip to vibrate in air.
 Do not allow the vibrating Microtip to contact anything but the sample.
 Never place a washer between the converter, probe or horn.
 Never apply grease to the mating surfaces or threads of any component.
 Should it become necessary to remove a probe, use the wrenches supplied. Never attempt to
remove the probe by twisting the converter housing or holding it in a vice, as this may
damage the electrical connections within the housing.

Overheating will damage the converter. If continuous operation for more than 15 minutes is
required, see addendum for converter cooling instructions.
 The converter should remain near room temperature at all times. The sample liquid
temperature should not exceed 60

reached, shut the system off and allow to cool.
 Replaceable tip probes (1/2” – 1” diameter) are made for use with water based samples only.
If the liquid being processed is an organic solvent or any liquid with a lower surface tension
than water – always use a Solid tip probe. Solid tips can be used with any type of liquid.
