Safety Precautions
Before using your Ultrasonic Bath, please read and thoroughly understand these safety
precautions. Failure to follow them may result in serious personal injury or property
damage.
1.2.1
To avoid electrical shock:
• Do unplug from power source before filling or emptying the tank
• Do plug the unit into an appropriate grounded power socket
• Do connect the unit to a power supply using a properly sized overcurrent protection device. See
label on the back of unit for information on current rating
• Do keep the control panel and the area around the unit clean and dry—wipe up solution which
spills over the tank brim. Water and high voltage can cause electrical shock
• Do not operate the unit without proper grounding
• Do not remove the grounding prong on the line cord plug
• Do not disassemble your unit—high voltage inside the unit is dangerous
• Do not immerse the unit in water
1.2.2
To prevent personal and/or property damage:
• Do use water-based solutions
• Do not ever use alcohol, gasoline or flammable solutions. Doing so could cause a fire or explosion
and will void your warranty. Use only water-based solutions
• Do not ever use mineral acids. These could damage the tank
• Do not touch the stainless steel tank or cleaning solution—they may be hot
• Do not allow fluid temperature to exceed 70° C (158° F)
• Do not place your fingers or hands into the tank while the unit is operating. Doing so may cause
discomfort and possible skin irritation. Avoid contact with solutions and provide adequate
ventilation
• Do not use solutions containing chlorine bleach
1.2.3
To prevent damage to the unit:
• Do change your solution regularly
• Do not cover vents on the cover
• Do not operate the unit dry
• Do not place parts or containers directly on the bottom of the tank; use a tray or wire to suspend
items. Failure to comply may cause transducer damage and will void your warranty
• Do not allow the solution to drop more than 3/8 inch (1 cm) below the operating level line with
heat or ultrasonics on. Failure to comply may cause transducer and/or heater damage and will
void your warranty
• Turn off AC and heater switch before plugging/unplugging the line cord
1.2.4
Sound level and energy savings
• Do not operate the unit without a cover when possible
• The sound pressure released by the unit depends on the size of the bath and the application, but
is less than 80 dBA when used with a cover
• To reduce the sound pressure it is recommended to use a cover while ultrasonics are activated
and to switch the ultrasonics on with the bath loaded when possible
1.2.5
Insulation resistance test
Branson has taken all applicable measures to assure that manufactured units comply with
insulation resistance requirements, as outlined by IEC 61010-1:2010 (Third edition). As
