Ultrasonic cleaners remove contaminants even from the finest holes and crevices. Cleaning is quick, gentle, and reproducible, without any manual scrubbing. This collection includes compact benchtop units for jewelry, eyeglasses, and laboratory equipment, as well as large-volume tanks for engine, transmission, and die-cast parts in workshops and industry. Functions such as heating, timer, and degas/sweep support stable process control; depending on the model, power levels and multi-frequency are available for particularly sensitive or particularly robust applications.
Choose the right size based on your actual needs: Small parts and individual instruments work efficiently in small tanks, multiple parts or medium-sized assemblies benefit from a larger usable volume, and large-format components require tanks with the appropriate capacity. Always allow for volume reserves for the basket, contents, and liquid. The parts should be completely submerged without touching the tank walls to ensure the sound energy is distributed evenly.
Water with a suitable, material-compatible cleaner is recommended as the cleaning medium. Neutral, alkaline, or slightly acidic – the choice depends on the material and type of contamination. Flammable solvents should not be used in ultrasonic baths. Very sensitive, porous, or coated materials should only be treated after prior suitability testing. Change the bath if the solution becomes visibly contaminated, develops an unpleasant odor, or if the cleaning performance decreases. Filtration and oil separators can extend the service life.
