How to use your
Ultrasonic Cleaning System
A. WHAT IS ULTRASONIC CLEANING
Congratulations on your purchase of an Ultrasonic Cleaning
System. Your machine is part of a complete cleaning process
which is thoroughly described in this owner/operator manual
Ultrasonic cleaning is created by sound waves that are transmitted at frequencies beyond the range of human hearing. These
sound waves are carried through the solution in the tank and
create a unique vibrational pattern causing alternating high and
low pressures in the liquid. During the low pressure stage, millions of tiny bubbles form. This process is called CAVITATION,
meaning the formation of cavities. During the high pressure
stage, the bubbles collapse or implode, releasing enormous
amounts of energy. Working in all directions, the bubbles attack
every surface and invade all recesses and crevices, pulling debris off the object being cleaned.
A generator located within your system develops the high frequency power which causes a transducer to radiate and create
cavitation. The Ultrasonic Cleaning System generators feature
unique solid state circuitry designed to ensure maximum cleaning efficiency and optimum reliability.
Equally important to efficient cleaning is selecting the proper
solution for the cleaning task. The use of the wrong solution will
slow down the cleaning process and may cause lessened results.
Factors such as length of cleaning time and the use of a heated
solution may also enhance your cleaning task.

B. START UP
Before operating your machine, make sure the drain assembly is
properly assembly if necessary.
• Plug line cord into the proper AC outlet. If an adapter plug is
use, the grounding wire (green) must be secured to either a water pipe or an adequately grounded electrical outlet.
• Pour in the required amount of Cleaning Solution, properly diluted as specified on the container, to a level one inch from the
top of the tank. Place the part( s) to be cleaned in your Accessory Basket. Insert the accessory basket containing the parts
into your machine. If necessary , add more solution to bring the
level to just above the part( s) being cleaned.
• For machine without a timer… Turn the power rocker switch
located on the front panel to the “On” position. The switch will
not be lit. Cavitation should now be heard and action should be
seen in the tank.
• For machines with a timer… To activate your machine, simply
plug unit in, add solution and set your timer to the number of
minutes desired for ultrasonic cleaning. These self-timing units
will automatically shut themselves off at the end of the pre-set
time.
• For machines with heat.. On machines equipped with heat, a
separate “On-Off” rocker switch is located on the front control
panel. This switch allows pre-heating of cleaning solution before
the ultrasonic operation. The rocker switch is lit when the heater
is in operation and must be switched off when not in use.
The heater element is designed to maintain a temperature of 125° 150° F (52° - 65° C). When you operate both the ultrasonics and
heat simultaneously, with the supplied lid for an extended period of
time, the solution temperature will rise above this level. At this point,
the termostat will be reactivate as required. During this cycle, the
heat indicator light will remain lit. Because of the intense ultrasonic
power dissipated in the form of heat, the temperature of the solution
may once again rise above the 150° F with the ultrasonics operating.
The heat rocker swith must always be manually turned off.
