7. Common cleaning methods

Notes on using the basket:
1. Basket can reduce the friction between the items and the tank. But stainless steel basket absorbs
approximately 8 % of ultrasonic energy, plastic basket absorbs about 35 % of ultrasonic eneregy.
This significantly reduces the cleaning effectiveness.
2. During cleaning, dirt will come off like smoke and the water will become murky over time. When
"smoke" stops coming, the cleaning is basically done.
Avoid acetone from contacting the plastic housing to prevent corrosion. Use Indirect Cleaning and a glass
or metal container for acetone.
REGULAR CLEANING
Only tap water is needed.
Suitable Locations: Jewelry makers, optical labs,
biology / chemical labs, homes, speech therapy
clinics, kindergartens.
Cleaning method
1. Put the items to be cleaned inside the basket
and put the basket inside the tank.
2. Add water to the cleaning tank to a level
between "MIN" and "MAX" lines and above the
area to be cleaned.
3. Turn the power switch on. Press Time button
to set the timer to 5 -10 minutes. Press On/Off
button to start cleaning.
INDIRECT CLEANING
Put the items in a separate container. Use ultrasonic
waves to penetrate the container to do the cleaning.
Suitable Locations: medical instrument sterilization
rooms, precision electrical parts manufacturers,
watch and precision parts manufacturers, mobile
phone and electronics service shops, large printing
shops.
Different industries use different fluids to be used
inside the container:
1. Watch service shops - Watch oil (to prevent
rust)
2. Medical instrument sterilization – Enzymatic
solution (cleaning prior to sterilization)
3. Precision electrical parts – Hexane (to dissolve
grease, to evaporate quickly)
4. Mobile phone and electronic service shops -
Pure alcohol (to evaporate quickly)
5. Printing shops – Acetone are often used(to
dissolve ink)
6. Homes - Rubbing alcohol (to remove odor, to
clean and to disinfect at the same time)
