QuickClean™ Ultrasonic Cleaners Maintenance
Maintaining Your Ultrasonic
It is important to keep your bath clean. Not only will contaminated liquid reduce the performance of the bath, it may also damage it. Change the cleaning liquid regularly. Your cleaning process will determine how often to change the liquid – the more soiled your items, the more often you will need to change the liquid.
Before cleaning the equipment always switch off and disconnect it from the power supply and allow it to cool down to less than 40°C/104°F. Clean by wiping with a damp soapy cloth and rinse.
The base of the bath generates the ultrasonic activity by vibrating at very high speeds. If any contaminants are in contact with the bath, they act as an abrasive, causing wear on the metal surface. In extreme cases, the bath will develop holes and start to leak.
Perform Periodic “Foil” Test
Follow the foil test guidelines in accordance with your local regulations.
Purpose: Used to Determine the Efficiency of an Ultrasonic Cleaner.
•Periodic testing of the ultrasonic cleaner to assure that it is operating properly.
•Testing should also be performed whenever deterioration in the cleaner performance is suspected.
•Foil test are relatively easy to perform and will provide a permanent record for the future comparative evaluation of the ultrasonic cleaners performance.
