Page 7: About This Operating Manual
• If you pass this device on to others, please enclose these instructions for use. • Contact your specialist dealer or BANDELIN if any of your questions are not answered in these instructions for use. Information on service can be found in chapter 6.3 Repair. -
Page 8: Safety
Safety Safety Use of the device The device is intended to be used in laboratories, clinics and in industrial research. It performs diverse tasks during sample preparation in Quality Assurance, scientific experiments, analyses, and in pilot or short-series manufacture. Only use the GM 5000 ultrasonic generators with the ultrasonic transducers from chapter 8 Device information. -
Page 9: Hazards Due To High Temperature
Safety Hazards due to high temperature Ultrasound heats up the sonicating medium. The device, the sonicating medium and the sonication vessel can become very hot during prolonged ultrasound operation. Contact with these products may cause burns. • Do not leave the ultrasound switched on for longer than necessary. •... -
Page 10: Danger Due To Ultrasound
Safety Danger due to ultrasound Strong ultrasound destroys cell structures. Exposing a body part to ultrasound can lead not just to skin damage, but also to internal tissue damage. On fingers, the periosteum can become damaged. • Do not touch the probe, the booster horn or the standard horn during operation. Do not touch the sonication fluid during operation. -
Page 11: Damage To The Probe And Sonication Vessel
Safety Damage to the probe and sonication vessel Probes are sensitive to shock. Handle the probes with care. Make sure that the probe does not touch the sonication vessel. This can damage the probe and the vessel. Foreign bodies on the contact surface between the probe and standard horn or booster horn can destroy both parts. -

Page 14: Preparation For Operation
• Prevent liquid from entering the unit. Screw the probe onto the ultrasonic converter; see 4.2 Mounting/removing the probe. Clamp the ultrasonic converter on the black housing in a suitable holder. BANDELIN recommends the HG 40 stand; see 9 Accessories. - Page 15 Preparation for operation Procedure Clean the mounting surfaces of the ultrasonic converter and the probe. Screw the probe on hand-tight. Place the ultrasonic converter on a firm tabletop. In the case of probes, support the probe tip with a thick underlay if necessary. Place the sickle spanner on the ultrasonic converter.

Page 16: Switching The Device On And Off
Preparation for operation Switching the device on and off Switching on the ultrasonic homogeniser for the first time Allow the device to stand for 2 hours at its operating location before switching it on so that it can adapt to the climatic conditions. Switch on the device using the mains switch on the rear of the ultrasonic generator. -
Page 17: Operation
Operation Operation Immersion depth notes The recommended immersion depth for probes is 10 ... 20 mm, to prevent the aspiration and mixing-in of air. If mixed-in air is desired, the probe may be immersed just a few millimetres. When producing emulsions, the probe should be immersed to the height of the surface separating the liquids to be mixed. -
Page 18: Enter Sonication Time
Confirm your entry with the “Confirm/Save” button. 5.2.4 Setting temperature monitoring With the BANDELIN temperature sensor TM 5000 you can monitor the temperature of the sample during sonication. You can set whether the ultrasound is switched off or only a warning tone is emitted when a limit value between 0 °C and 100 °C is reached. -
Page 19: Start Sonication
Operation Start sonication Requirement • The probe tip is immersed in the sonicating medium; see 5.1 Immersion depth notes. On the startup screen, tap the “Start” button. » The “Sonication” screen appears. » The preselected sonication parameters are displayed; see chapter 5.2 Preselect parameters for sonication. -
