Placement of cleaning items

Caution! The ultrasonic bath has been designed for the
ultrasonic treatment of items and liquids only.
Do not clean living beings or plants!
Do not reach inside the tank during ultrasonic operation!
Cell walls can be damaged by prolonged exposure to ultrasonic
activity.
For placing and taking out the cleaning items always switch off
the unit.
Do not place the cleaning items directly onto the bottom of the
cleaning tank, as this might lead to damages to the unit.
Place the cleaning items into the stainless steel cleaning basket
(accessory equipment).
For the use of cleaning chemicals which might destroy or
damage the stainless steel tank use a separate container. For
the special plastic cleaner tank for acid chemicals please
contact your supplier.

Degassing of liquid

Freshly mixed cleaning liquids are saturated with air which
lessens the cleaning effect of the ultrasonic activity. By
sonification of the liquid over a period of several minutes before
the cleaning process the tiny air bubbles in the liquid are
eliminated.
Degas the fesh cleaning liquid for approx. 5 - 10 minutes. For
switch-on and switch-off press the degas key.
The Elmasonic S units are equipped with an auto degas option.
When the programmed period has finished, the degas function
is automatically switched off (10 min).
See chart 4.9.
Degas and sweep functions cannot be operated at the same
time.
