Indirect clearing
Place objects in a separate container. Use ultrasonic
waves to penetrate the container and to clean.
Appropriate places: Print shops, technical assistance
of mobile phones and electronics.
Cleaning methods:
1. Place the object inside a container. Add the proper fluid to submerge the object.
2. Place the container inside the basket, then put them in the tank. Add water to a level between
MIN and MAX, without covering the container.
3. Press the SET button to set the clock to 10 minutes. Press the On/Off button once to start cleaning.
The ultrasonic waves will penetrate the container and clean the object.
Different industries use different fluids to be used inside
the containers:
1. Print shops - Acetone is often used (for dissolving
the paint).
2. Technical assistance for mobile phones and electronics
- pure alcohol (to evaporate quickly).
Do not allow contact between acetone and the plastic
parts of the equipment to avoid corrosion.
Use indirect clean and a glass or metal container for
acetone.
Choose the container:
1. Plastic packaging - plastics are soft, and absorb about 30% of ultrasonic energy reducing the
effect of ultrasonic cleaning.
2. Aluminum containers - absorb about 20% of ultrasonic energy.
3. Stainless steel containers - absorb about 8% of ultrasonic energy.
