ATTENTION a ventilated area and must not be immersed in water! The Elma activated carbon unit can also be connected to the exhaust air tubes if there is no on site access to the outside or if a permitted extraction unit was not installed.
ATTENTION and cleaning machine. Only use the original Elma basket holder. The maximum load weight of the basket holder is 100 grams. Do not clean parts or clean off dirt particles whose diameter is smaller than 0.355 mm!
Media (cleaning / rinsing solutions) Recommended media Elma provides suitable solvent-based cleaning ("elma wf pro"), rinsing ("elma suprol pro") and relubrication media ("elma unimix") from its own development and manufacture. Ask your dealer about these. The cleaning machine is always suitable for cleaning and...
"elma wf pro" is classified as environmentally hazardous according to R51 and R53 and therefore has an environmental hazard pictogram while "elma suprol pro" and "elma unimix" are only classified with R52 and R53 and therefore do not have any environmental hazard pictogram.
Therefore the seal replacement does not necessarily have to be performed by a service point; this can be done by the user. Service Kit Elma order number 108 3896 Procedure A service manual for the procedure is enclosed with the service kit.
There is a total of 6 PE filters in the activated carbon unit. The filters are available as a set and all four must be changed. Order number Elma order number 105 3821 Interval Annually or depending on the operating conditions: If the required cleaning time gradually becomes longer and/or if an appropriate warning message is shown on the display.

If dry parts are obtained in this way, then reduce the number of cycles gradually without further reduced pressure. This procedure is usually correct for rinsing media with high boiling points such as elma suprol pro or others with flashpoint >23 °C. The first procedure shown in the example requires that the...

Expert Mode Fig. 16.7: Comparison of the vapour pressure dependencies on the temperature for IPA (isopropanol, 2-propanol) and the elma suprol pro hydrocarbon mixture. The latter should be considered between the vapour pressure curves of its two components with the lowest and highest vapour pressure.

This results in only a slower evaporation process than the boiling makes possible – the vaporisation of the rinsing medium – when using elma suprol pro as last rinsing medium with the available vacuum down to 25-30 mbar in the elma solvex VA.
Elmasolvex VA Expert Mode In addition to its standard mode for creating and modifying cleaning programs, the Elmasolvex VA also provides an expert mode. This mode offers advanced configuration options and allows the user to adapt the cleaning steps more accurately to suit individual requirements.
