SONICA® Ultrasonic Cleaners cleaning tips

The SONICA® ultrasonic cleaners units allow various types of objects to be cleaned safely and easily. The small size of these units means that they can be placed directly on the work surface and fulfil various requirements.

Heating function precaution

When the heating function is enabled with temperature higher than 50°C., do not place your hands in the washing liquid. Risk of scolding and burns. Use gloves and adequate means of protection.

The principles of ultrasonic cleaning

Ultrasonic cavitation

Ultrasonic cavitation is the phenomenon whereby the principle of ultrasonic cleaning can be understood. In a liquid medium the ultrasonic waves, generated by an apposite electronic ultrasounds generator and a special transducer suitably mounted under the bottom of a stainless steel tank, produce compression and vacuum waves at a very high speed, the speed depending on the working frequency of the ultrasounds generator. They normally work at a frequency between 28 and 50 kHz. The pressure and vacuum waves in the liquid cause the phenomenon known as "ultrasonic cavitation".
