This ultrasonic cleaning system has been designed for the ultrasonic treatment of items and
liquids only.
It is not intended for the use in areas with potentially explosive atmosphere.
Operation of the unit by authorized and instructed staff only. Observe the instructions given in
the manual.
Check the unit and its mains cable for transport damages. Do not operate the unit in case of
visible damages!
For safety reasons, the present unit must be connected to a correctly grounded socket only.
The technical details indicated on the nameplate must correspond with the available mains
connection details, in particular those of the mains voltage and current connected value.
Place the unit on a dry surface. The work area must be sufficiently ventilated to allow any
vapours arising from the cleaning liquid to be carried off. Keep work surface, housing and
operating elements dry.
For purposes of filling, maintenance and care of the unit, in case of suspected humidity inside
the unit or in case of malfunctions and after operation pull the mains plug.
The unit must be opened by authorised specialised personnel only.
The unit must be operated with aqueous cleaning liquids only. Risk of fire and explosion! Do not
treat any flammable liquids with ultrasound or high temperature directly in the cleaning or rinsing
tank.
Risk of burning and scalding! Depending on the operational period of the unit, unit surfaces,
cleaning or rinsing liquid, basket and cleaning items can heat up considerably.
During operation with high temperatures inside the cleaning, rinsing or drying tanks, open the
unit with care: hot steam can emerge when the cover is lifted.
Ultrasonic units can produce annoying sounds.
Wear personal ear protection devices when working close to an ultrasonic unit which is
operated without cover.
The use of personal ear protection devices is particularly recommended for operating the unit at
28 kHz without cover.
Do not reach inside the cleaning liquid or touch sound-carrying parts (tank, basket, cleaning
items, etc.) during operation.
