Filtration System
In many applications the use of a pump and filtration system will extend the useful
life of the cleaning chemistry.
The spray bar pushes the water surface over the weir, skimming off floating oil and
debris that is loosened by the ultrasonic cleaning.
The filtration system will then remove water from the weir tank, pass it through the
dual filters and spray the filtered water back into the wash tank through the spray
bar.
The pump and heat circuits can be operated simultaneously.
However the pump will not operate while the ultrasound is in use. Doing so would
decrease the cavitation cleaning effects of the ultrasound.
How often you use the pump is dependent on what is being cleaned and the state of
the water (i.e. if the items are oily, then the pump should be run after each cleaning
cycle).
To activate the filtration system, turn the selector switch marked
PUMP
to the
ON
position for each of the tanks.
