Page 6: About These Operating Instructions
• Should these operating instructions leave any questions unanswered, please contact your specialist dealer or BANDELIN. Notes on service can be found in Chapter 6.4 Repairs. In the event that the translation cannot be understood, the German original version of BANDELIN must be followed. -
Page 7: Safety
Safety Safety Using the device The device is used for cleaning pipettes, burettes and other volumetric glassware up to a maximum length of 755 mm. The device works on the basis of low-frequency ultrasound and allows for very short sonication times. Sonication is usually carried out in combination with a suitable agent, which is added to the bath liquid. -
Page 8: Damage To Health Due To Ultrasonic Noise
Safety Damage to health due to ultrasonic noise The typical ultrasonic noise produced during a procedure can be perceived as very unpleasant. Remaining within a radius of 2 m for a long period of time may cause you to suffer damage to your health. •... -

Safety Danger due to the agents used The agents used in the device can be toxic or corrosive. They can irritate eyes, skin and mucous membranes. The vapours and aerosols can also be dangerous. • Wear gloves and safety glasses when handling hazardous agents. •... -
Page 10: Erosion Of The Oscillating Tank
Safety Erosion of the oscillating tank The surface of the oscillating tank is subject to erosion. How quickly this erosion takes place depends on how the device is used. The erosion leads to leakage points in the oscillating tray. This allows bath liquid to enter the interior of the device. Moisture on electrical components can cause an electric shock or fire. -

Page 22: Avoiding Retardation Of Boiling
Operation Avoiding retardation of boiling To avoid retardation of boiling, the ultrasound is automatically switched on once a minute for 3 seconds, to mix the liquid, when the temperature is above 60 °C. This function cannot be switched off. You can set this function to always be active when the heating is switched on, even at temperatures below 60 °C. -
Page 23: Degassing The Sonication Liquid - Degas
Operation Degassing the sonication liquid – DEGAS Sonication liquid that has been freshly poured in or that has remained in the oscillating tank for a long time must be degassed before use. Degassing the sonication liquid increases the effect of the ultrasound. The DEGAS function allows rapid degassing of the sonication liquid. Press the Start/Stop button for at least 2 seconds. -
Page 24: Removing Objects To Be Sonicated
Operation Removing objects to be sonicated WARNING Risk of scalding The sonication liquid, the objects to be sonicated, the surface of the device and the acces- sories can be very hot. – Do not touch the surface of the device or accessories such as the cover. Do not reach into the sonication liquid. -
