11. TANK HEATING
FXP12M heated ultrasonic cleaner models use silicon rubber
contact heaters on the outside face of the tank and are
thermostatically controlled. The liquid level in all cleaners
should not drop below 80mm from the tank bottom and the
thermostat setting should not exceed 60°C. Hot water should
never be poured directly into tank bottom but instead
be brought to temperature gradually.
Once the cleaner has been turned on according to the
Operations above, the thermostat can be set to your desired
temperature. (Note: Heaters come standard wired through
the timer control to ensure the heater is not accidently left on
for extended periods of time.)
The aluminium foil test is an economical and consistent
test for units under 60 Litres to gauge performance.
FXP8 cleaners over 60 Litres should use a cavitation
meter for more accurate testing.

13. PERFORMANCE TEST:
Please find as follows the testing process for efficiency
levels in the ultrasonic cleaner.
TESTING PROCEDURE:
Always degas the solution prior to the performance test to allow for the elimination of
air found in fresh solution. This is achieved by turning the ultrasonics on for 5 minutes.
Testing should always be carried out in a solution only chamber
(basket and cleaning items removed).
The foil must be suspended in the solution for a duration of 30 seconds.
A consistent pattern of perforation should result with hole sizes varying from one
to four mm in diameter.
Tested fluid should be disposed of, as aluminium residue will remain and deposit
as a contaminant.
PLEASE NOTE:
Inconsistency in foil thickness and manual holding can create
a degree of error that will vary the results of the foil test.
