Hot sonication fluid and oscillating tank
There is a risk of burns when lifting the ultrasound bath to empty it.

Contamination on the bottom of the oscillating tank reduces the
ultrasonic output. Empty and clean the oscillating tank if the soni-
cation fluid is visibly contaminated.
Also, observe the specifications of the manufacturer of the prepa-
ration regarding the service life of the sonication fluid.
Replace used sonication fluid completely. Do not freshen the fluid
by topping it up.

tank contents over the corner.
