• The cleaner must be electrically grounded to a three wire electrical outlet or receptacle. The electri-
cal service provided must be a ground outlet to prevent electrical shock. An electrical outlet or receptacle
with "ground fault" protection is preferred.
• Do not use flammable liquids in the cleaner the cleaner will cause them to vaporize and increase the risk
of fire or explosion.
• Disconnect the power cord before moving, filling or draining the cleaner.
• Do not attempt to service the Ultrasonik cleaner yourself, it contains high voltages and should only be
serviced by a properly trained technician.
• Do not use chlorinated solutions in the tank. They will cause the tank to rust or corrode. Pit holes in the
tank are generally caused by chlorinated solutions (eg. Chlorine bleach).
• Do not use solvents or acids in the cleaner they may cause dangerous or harmful fumes.
• Do not place objects to be cleaned directly on the bottom of the tank. This disrupts the flow of energy
from the ultrasonic transducers and may cause them to overheat and damage the tank.
• Do not leave the Ultrasonik cleaner running when not in use or unattended. The natural action of the
ultrasonic cleaner wears out the tank. The cleaner can also run dry which will damage it.
• Do not place your hands or fingers in the cleaner when it is running.
• Do not fill the tank higher than 20mm (3/4") from the top or lower than 50mm (2") from the top.
• Do not place the cleaner in sinks or tanks where water can run or splash inside and damage the elec-
tronics.
• Do not place cold solutions into a cleaner that has run dry, turn off the cleaner and allow it to cool
before adding any solution. Sudden temperature changes can damage the transducers.
• Do not operate the cleaner with the cover on for long periods (>1 hour) of time, the cover may cause
the cleaner to over heat if operated continuously.
• Protection provided by the equipment may be impaired if the equipment is not used in the manner
specified by manufacturer.

UNPACKING
Carefully unpack and remove the ultrasonic cleaner from its shipping carton. Save the carton and other
packing material for future use in transporting the ultrasonic cleaner.
INSTALLATION
1. Remove all packing material from in and around the cleaner.
2. Locate cleaner on a level secure surface.
3. Partially fill the cleaner with the desired cleaning solution.
4. Check the solution height with the intended load (beakers, pans, baskets, racks, etc.). Do not allow the
solution to overflow when placing the load in the tank.
The solution must not be lower than 50mm (2") from the top of the tank during operation. This
allows the solution to cover the heater which is attached to the side wall of the tank.
5. Plug the cleaner into the appropriate power outlet. The cleaner is now ready to operate.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
• Unplug the cleaner and allow solution to cool.
• Drain, rinse and clean the tank.
• The cleaner's solution should be changed when it becomes saturated with dirt. The tank should be rinsed out
so that sediments or dirt from the cleaning process do not attack or corrode the stainless steel tank.
• Rinse and dry out the cleaner's tank if it is not going to be used for prolonged periods. This will reduce the possibility
of corrosion.
• Wipe tank clean using a mild soap solution. Isopropyl alcohol may be used to break down grease and oily
residues.
• Use a soft damp cloth to clean the control panel. Avoid excess water or solution when cleaning the cleaner.
These solutions can attack the panel or electronics and cause the ultrasonic cleaner to malfunction.
• Inspect for worn/leaky drain hose.
• Check for worn power cord.
• No operator serviceable parts in unit.
Fuses:
• Models 28X, 57X & 104X - F125, 5A
Calibration:
• All Ney Ultrasonik cleaners are calibrated before shipment. No further calibration is required.
MAINTENANCE
TROUBLESHOOTING
• Cleaner does not operate: Check the wall socket for power, verify that the power cord is securely plugged
into the back of the cleaner. Verify that the red power LED is on. If the red led is illuminated
and the cleaner does not make any noise when the "Timer" key or the "Start" key is pressed
check the fuse.
• Cleaner ran dry: Turn the cleaner off and allow it to cool. Do not pour solution into the hot tank; it may
crack the transducer. Allow the cleaner to cool, pour solution into tank and resume cleaning.
If cleaner does not operate check the fuse.
• Water inside cleaner: Unplug and turn off the cleaner. Allow the cleaner to dry out. Test the cleaner the
next day. If cleaner does not operate, the water may have the blown the fuse or damaged the
electronics inside.
• Cleaner smokes or smells: Does the cleaner have the proper water level? If the water level is too low, the
tank heater is getting too hot. Test with heater turned off.
Tank transducers (Ceramic discs on bottom of tank), heater or control board burning or
damaged. Discontinue operation, have the cleaner serviced.
• Heater is not heating: Is heater switch light on? (Switch lights when switch is on.) Put cold water into the
tank and check the back side of the tank for heat. If no heating is detected, the heater or
temperature cutoff may be defective.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS - HOW IT WORKS
An ultrasonic cleaner uses transducer(s) mounted to the bottom of the tank to create high frequency sound waves
in the tank's liquid. In the simplest sense, the sound waves cause tiny vacuum cavities to form in the liquid, a process
called “cavitation”. When these cavities collapse, or “implode”, they release large amounts of energy. The
implosions “scrub” particles of dirt, stains, or other debris from the surfaces immersed in the liquid.
An ultrasonic cleaner performs best when the amount of cavitation is sufficient to clean the surface efficiently and
thoroughly, but not great enough to damage the surface. The ultrasonic energy is so strong that it eventually etches
away the stainless steel tank. Aluminum foils are etched away in just minutes. Care must be used in cleaning soft
metals and stones. The ultrasonic activity can damage their surface finish.
CLEANING SOLUTIONS
The DENTSPLY NeyTech Ultrasonik Cleaner can be used only with water-based solutions such as detergents,
soaps and industrial cleaners.
Cleaning solutions serve two purposes. The first and most important purpose is to act as a surfactant, which
reduces the surface tension of the solution and allows cavitations to occur more easily. The second is to aid in
removing soil from the surface of the part to be cleaned - investment plaster, scale, rust, tarnish, oils, fats, polishing
compounds and other soils.
Excess concentrations of cleaning solutions can actually reduce the ultrasonic activity in the tank. Test your
cleaning solution at low concentrations to determine the most effective level. More is not necessarily better with
ultrasonics. Carefully read the cleaning solution label for instructions on proper dilution. Too much solution will
decrease the cavitation activity thereby, reducing the effectiveness of the cleaning procedure.
If you do not have an ultrasonic cleaning solution readily available then start with a small amount of a simple liquid
detergent (i.e. "Joy", "Simple Green", etc.).
REMEMBER: Chlorinated or Acid based solutions will damage the tank and void the warranty. Only
use these types of solutions in glass beakers.
OPERATION
UNPLUG THE UNIT before filling or draining!
1. Pour a sufficient amount of properly diluted cleaning solution into the tank to bring the liquid level to 1.0" (25mm)
below the top of the tank.
CAUTION Check the water level often. Running the cleaner without an adequate level of solution may cause
damage and void your warranty.
The cleaner should be operated only when needed. The normal operation of the cleaner will cause tank
wear.
2. Plug unit into a GROUNDED AC outlet. Power red light will be illuminated indicating power
3. Turn on the HEATER; indicator light in the switch will be illuminated. The heater will heat solution to
approximately 60°C (140°F). Heating the solution increases chemical activity and increases the ultrasonic
action, providing faster, more thorough cleaning. A thermal switch mounted on the bottom of the tank will turn
off the heater when the solution reaches approximately 60°C (140°F). When the solution cools the switch will
turn on. The heater switch light on the front of the cleaner will remain on whenever heater switch is on.

4. When new water or cleaning solution is poured into the tank it will require degassing for proper operation before
cleaning begins. Degassing generally requires 10 to 20 minutes. Subsequent operation with the same water
or solution will not require degassing. The LED above the timer will be illuminated when the cleaner is operating
under a cleaning cycle.
5. DENTSPLY NeyTech Ultrasonik cleaners come with adjustable power burst and degas period control knobs;
select the settings for your application.
The degas knob controls the off time which allows the fluid to relax and release trapped gases. A long degas
period (MAX) cleans complex items thoroughly by allowing gases to escape from crevices. A short degas
period (MIN) provides quick cleaning of simple shapes with few recesses. When new solutions are placed in
the tank some amount of time is required for "degassing" for before the solution will attain peak performance.
The cleaner will produce full cleaning power within a few seconds with degassed solutions.
The power knob controls the intensity of the cleaning action. A long power burst (MAX) is used for aggressive
cleaning. A short burst (MIN) is for more gentle cleaning. For delicate items, clean a test sample to determine
the best setting.
6. Press "Timer" key to turn on the ultrasonics for a timed cycle. For continuous operation press the "Start" button,
do not press "Timer" button. By pressing the "Start" button, the cleaner will operate continuously even if the
"Timer" key is pressed. Pressing the "Stop" button will
turn off the ultrasonic operation.
7. Place the items to be cleaned in a perforated pan or beaker with holder, and lower the pan or beaker into the
tank. The items to be cleaned may also be supported with wires or racks. Be careful not to allow the tank to
overflow.
NEVER PLACE ITEMS TO BE CLEANED DIRECTLY ON THE BOTTOM OF THE TANK. THIS INCREASES
TANK WEAR AND REDUCES ITS LIFE.
8. At the end of the cleaning cycle, remove trays, rinse and dry parts.
9. Turn off the heater switch at the end of the day before leaving.
LEAVING THE HEATER ON OVERNIGHT WILL CAUSE THE CLEANING SOLUTION TO EVAPORATE AND
POSSIBLY DAMAGE THE HEATER.
