Setup, Maintenance/ Daily Operation Checklist

Introduction

This user manual is for use with RS Components Industrial ultrasonic cleaning tanks.
All cleaning tanks should be handled with care to ensure long-lasting performance.
Please read and understand this user manual before using your ultrasonic cleaner.
Initial setup and Fluid selection
Ensure the tank is positioned on a level stable surface with lockable wheels secured to prevent
movement.
Ultrasonic generators should be positioned out of areas where there is a risk of splashing or high
humidity.
We strongly recommend that RCD Residual current detectors are used on the supplies to the
heating circuit and generator/s supplies, this may provide additional protection to the Operator and
the unit, should a fault condition occur or the generator or leads suffer water ingress.
Do not use any fluids which could potentially damage the stainless steel bath e.g acids.
Aqueous solvent/detergent solutions should be made up with deionised, demineralised or distilled
water unless it is known the solvent contains a water softener. Calcium carbonate and other
impurities in tap water can affect/ reduce the cleaning properties of the solutions and produce
undesirable side effects such as deposits and staining.
Volatile solvents with low boiling temperatures should not be used. The ultrasonic action can
cause them to heat rapidly and the vapour is a fire risk and may be detrimental to the health of the
operator.

Routine maintenance

•
Ultrasonic Generator/s should be monitored to ensure the cooling fan in the rear of the unit
doesn't become clogged with dust, any significant build-up of dust should be removed by a
competent person.
•
The finish of the Stainless steel bath can be maintained through regular cleaning with a dry
cloth, this can be improved if dampened with light oil.

Daily Maintenance / Operation

•
Ensure power is disconnected before attempting to add or remove the fluid.
•
The fluid level within the bath should be maintained to at least ¾ of the bath depth to ensure
no damage is done to the bath and heating circuit.
•
Do not let items rest on the base of the bath, always use a basket or suspend items.
•
When submerging parts ensure the fluid is not displaced out of the bath.
