DEGASSING / USING THE BEAKER
The water degassing has the purpose of removing the gases dissolved in the
water that impair the cavitation process and must be repeated every time the
water/solution is changed. The procedure consists in leaving the equipment on
for 8 minutes (480s cycle) without any instruments /articles in the vat.
When using the beaker (accessory that must be purchased separately used
to clean very small items (burs, files, etc.) that would certainly go through the
basket orifices falling on the bottom of the vat, remember that the water inside
the beaker must also be degassed Use always a heat resistant glass beaker
.
specific for this purpose. Put the water in the stainless steel vat, the basket, the
beaker on top of the basket and water inside the beaker, seal it with some PVC
film (the same used for food wrapping) and proceed the degassing.
Always use the lid when the equipment is operating with the basket, when
using the beaker, remove it, unless the beaker being used has a compatible
size for the basket depth and allow the use of the lid.
The Cristófoli Ultrasonic Cleaner may also be used to clean dental prosthesis
like dentures, bridges or orthodontic devices like braces, etc., as shown by the
drawing (Fig. 6).

OVERHEATING PROTECTION SENSOR
It protects the cleaner against overheating. If the
lig
(On) key is pressed, the
-
display shows the remaining time and there’s no cavitation (production of ultrasonic waves), that means that the
equipment needs to cool down for about 15 minutes. After that, press
lig
again and the equipment will resume
operation.

For a deeper cleaning, with the presence of fat, optionally,
the water heating function can be used. Just press the
AQ
key to
start the water heating (Fig. 7) that will take approximately 40
minutes to achieve the ideal temperature for cleaning, which
is 65 ºC.
Once the right temperature is reached, heating will turn off
automatically The red LED on the left side of the display will be
.
on when the heating is in use If it’s needed to reduce the
.
heating time, water already warm
may be used by the
operator. Do not use water too hot (above 65ºC), this will hinder
the cleaning of the instruments/articles.
