m-03, m-08 & m-20 Overview

Ultrasonic cleaning machines apply high frequency sound energy to liquid at levels that create 'cavitation' in that liquid. The sound waves (made up of moving high & low pressure zones) causes millions of microscopic bubbles to form and implode, according to the power and frequency of the ultrasonic energy.

The bubbles form when the drop in pressure in the liquid causes it to vapourise. They quickly implode when the pressure rises during the cycle of the wave pattern and, although the bubbles are tiny the forces they exert are high. It is this that gives the 'scrubbing' action on the components.

An ultrasonic 'generator' provides the appropriate electrical output to the transducers. The latter are positioned on the tank walls or in submersible boxes and they impart the ultrasonic energy to the liquid.

Benefits

Ultrasonic appliances for precision cleaning in laboratories, optics, dental and health care, printing industry, watchmaking, jewellery and all kinds of precision mechanics

Specifications

The tank and lid are made from stainless steel. The temperature and treatment time are easily adjusted with the electronic control panel.

Typical cleaning times vary from 30 seconds to 5 minutes. The treatment time can be stored in the control panel and restarted by the ultrasonic button.

Use of a detergent:

• reduces surface tension and intensifies ultrasonic cavitation.
• dissolves and binds the dirt which has been loosened by the ultrasonics.

Component Cleaning Trials

Turbex regularly undertakes component cleaning trials to help our customers decide what would be their best cleaning option. If you would like to carry out some of these trials with your components, please or alternatively, you may like to send the components to us for trials. We will in turn, clean them and then return them to you with a report.
