Use TICKOPUR, TICKOMED, STAMMOPUR, STAMMOSEPT or ask results for advice. - Overloaded with items to be Reduce amount to be cleaned. cleaned? - Fill-height of cleaning liquid Make sure it is 2/3rds full, goods to be in oscillating tub or inserted cleaned must be completely covered beaker too low?
Repair advices Repairs must only be carried out by authorised personnel. Replace defective parts with SONOREX original parts only. It is recommended to limit the repair of the units to the exchange of fuses, transistors, generator PCB with base plate, the heater, transducers (without new bonding), as well as the timer. The parts mentioned are supplied as replacement parts.
Repairs Check of transistors Check the transistors before exchanging, in order to save unnecessary costs. The transistors can be checked in the inserted condition: Check of the bipolar transistors (generators without ICs): 1) Diode behaviour of the paths B-E, B-C and E-C: in forward direction approx.
4. 2. 2 Transistors with plastic case (TO-220) and synthetic material press-on plate Exchange the transistor as follows: Loosen the self locking nuts and the countersunk screws M3 and remove the transistor holder. Cut off the transistor connections just below the transistor using side cutting pliers. The transistors are attached to the mica disc with heat conducting paste.
4.2.4 Transistor in plastic case and metal clip(s) Before changing the transistors verify the shunt of the current measurement. shunt for current measurement The value (imprinted) should be between 0,5 and 10 Ω. If this resistor has blown, further damages are probable and the equipment must be returned to the supplier for repair.
4. 3 Exchanging the generator PCB including the base plate Return ultrasonic cleaners RK 1028 C and RK 1050 /CH for repair to the supplier. The following repair instructions are not applicable for this type of units. 4. 3. 1 With original generator of older type and supply of a replacement generator without ICs The generator PCB with base plate is preadjusted.

4. 4 Repairing the heating 4. 4. 1 Checking the heating elements and data Check the heater fuses for conductivity in accordance with wiring diagram in appendix 3. Check the dry-run protector for conductivity. Check the heating for conductivity. Check the heating for faulty insulation against tub. Check the heater resistance.
4.4.2 Separating the oscillating tub from the housing 4.4.2.1 Disassembly of screwed drain Remove the base plate, see item 3. Disassemble the drain: Cut the silicon rubber seal between the edge of the tub and the housing with a sharp knife and push out the tub. Pull the thermostatic sensor out of the push-in link or remove the regulating thermostat completely, see item 4.
4. 4. 3 Exchanging a defective heating Separate the connections of the defective heater and if necessary from the dry-run protector thermostat or the flat plugs on the PCB. Remove defective heating element(s). It may be necessary to remove the perforated attachment plate for the dry-run protector thermostat.
4. 4. 6 Exchanging the regulating thermostat Remove knob. Older units are equipped with housing silicone rubber turning knobs incl. threaded bolt. Loosen it before exchanging. attachment screws push-in link Unscrew the attachment screws from the regulator thermostat. turning knob Mark the pin connections of the thermostat in accordance with the pin number and then disconnect.
Welded drain - Screw on the locking nut 3. Wind the white PTFE tape clockwise around the screw neck (approx. 10 turns). Screw the ball cock 4 onto the screw neck approx. 5 turns. Attention: Hold the screw neck with the spanner and locking nut 3, to take stress off the tub. Do not over-tighten the ball cock, do not unscrew it, the sealing will be damaged.
4. 5 Repair of oscillating systems Return ultrasonic cleaners TK 100 and TK 100 H for repair to the supplier. The following repair instructions are not applicable for flat oscillating systems. The oscillating systems are located under the bottom of the tub. Depending on the type of unit, oscillating systems with one or two PZT-rings are used.
4. 5. 2. 1 Oscillating systems with two PZT-rings Replacement parts: 2 PZT-rings, diam. 38mm, SW 004 2 Cu-Be disc with soldered squarehead screw, TS-0152-LM (Cu-Be = copper- beryllium) 2 angles, RK 539 2 spring washers, DIN 127 B 4, NU 101 2 nuts, DIN 934 M 4, NM 303 1 hexagon socket head screw, DIN 912-M 10 ×...
4. 5. 2. 3 Oscillating systems with one PZT-ring Replacement parts: 1 PZT-ring, diam. 38mm, SW 004 1 insulating disc* IS 013 white ring 2 Cu-Be disc with soldered squarehead screw, TS-0152-LM (Cu-Be = copper- beryllium) 2 angles, RK 539 2 spring washers, DIN 127 B 4, NU 101 2 nuts, DIN 934 M 4, NM 303 2 insulating bushes, 11 ×...
4. 6 Exchanging the timer - Pull the mains plug! - Remove the screws from the base plate (see point 3). - Lift the base plate carefully. - Remove knob. Older units are equipped with turning knobs incl. threaded bolt. Loosen it before exchanging.
4. 8 Exchanging the pilot lamps Pull the mains plug! Remove the screws from the base plate along the case’s rim and if necessary slotted head screws in the feet. Lift the base plate carefully. Pull out the defective lamp. Remove the clamping plugs with silicone hose from the contacts of the defective lamp.
