The case history of Narcodont clinic in Milan
 

Narcodont is a structure that includes services of Narcodontostomatology and is situated in the city centre of Milan. The structure consist of operating theatres equipped with anaesthesiologic, surgical and high level dental material and of recovery rooms at odontologists' disposal in case of odontostomatologic operation in general anaesthetic, in local anaesthetic or in anesthesiologic assistance. Silla cavaliere, hospital assistant of Narcodont's nursing staff, gave us her personal evidence on the use of  the ultrasonic cleaner SONICA® and its accessories for the ultrasonic decontamination  and cleaning of all the surgical instruments, before the sterilization in autoclave, used in Narcodont's operating rooms.

The flush-mountable versions of SONICA^® ultrasonic cleaning units have been specially designed to be built into an already-existing work surface (for example a laboratory bench or sterilisation room). For the correct usage please read carefully the instruction manual of this special version of ultrasonic cleaner included with the product (warnings and advice, electrical connection, installation, operating instructions, etc.).

SONICA 4300 S3 benchtop ultrasonic cleaner

SONICA 4300 S3 is a benchtop ultrasonic cleaner designed for a lot of applictions.

The typical applications are:

SONICA 3200L S3 ultrasonic pipettes and glassware cleaner.

Benchtop SONICA 3200L S3 ultrasonic cleaner is designed for cleaning pipettes and other tubular glassware.

With the cavitation process and the proper cleaning agent, lipids, blood and proteins are easily removed from the capillary bore of the pippette.

This type of  ultrasonic cleaner, is particulary useful for medical, surgical, scientific and chemical laboratories.

Auxiliary tank and beakers

What is the difference between the ultrasonic "direct" cleaning and ultrasonic "indirect cleaning"?
Direct cleaning occours when the parts are cleaned directly in the ultrasonic cleaner filled with the cleaning solution.
Generally the parts to be cleaned with ultrasounds are inserted in a stainless steel mesh basket. The limitation of direct ultrasonic cleaning is the selection of the appropriate cleaning solution that will not damage the ultrasonic cleaner.

SONICA® 90L model is an ultrasonic bath that allows to clean great dimensions instruments or tools. The cleaning tank dimensions are: 600 x 500 x 300 mm and is fully made of Aisi 304 stainless steel with 15/10 thickness.

Ultrasonic cleaning of inkjet printer parts has become a common pratice. It is now one of the faster and more effective technique to recycle inkjet cartridges.

Ultrasonic cleaning reduce:

• use of solvents lowering damages to the environment
• cost of remanufacturing inkjet heads
• time required for the process

As a Team, we are now fully prepared.
