Common Cleaning Methods
Regular Cleaning
Only warm tap water is needed. You may add an instrument
cleaner. We recommend Resurge Instrument Cleaner. Follow the
manufacturer’s instructions for use.
Suitable Locations:
Dental, medical offices and labs.
Cleaning Method:
1. Put the items to be cleaned inside the basket or cassette
and place into the rack.
Do not stack the instruments as
this can reduce the effectiveness of the ultrasonic cleaner.
2. Lower the rack inside the tank.
3. Add warm water to the cleaning tank to a level between
“MIN” and “MAX” lines and above the area to be cleaned.
4. Turn on the power switch, found on the back of the unit.
Touch the Time button to set the timer to 5-15 minutes. Consult
your cleaner and/or instrument Directions for Use, for proper
time. Touch Start/Stop button twice to start cleaning.
Notes on using the basket:
1. A tray or cassette can reduce the friction between the items and the tank. Stainless steel
basket absorbs approximately 8% of ultrasonic energy, plastic basket absorbs about 35% of
ultrasonic energy. This significantly reduces the cleaning effectiveness.
2. During cleaning, dirt will come off like a cloud and the water will become murky over time.
This is debris being removed from the instruments and indicates the instruments are being cleaned.

Indirect Cleaning
Put the items in a separate container such as a glass
beaker or metal tub both offered as available accessories.
See page 3 for more information. Use ultrasonic waves to
penetrate the container to do the cleaning.
Suitable Locations:
Medical and dental instrument sterilization rooms. Different
applications use different fluids to be used inside the
container.
1. Small instruments - Keep them separate from the main
instrument cleaning.
2. Multiple patients' dentures or impressions. Disinfect the
container after each patient.
3. Instruments using corrosive solutions, such as cement
remover.
