What Ultrasonic Cleaner Can Do?
ultrasonic cleaners use industrial strength cleaning action to:
-
Clean carbon deposits from carburetors and engine parts
-
Removes stubborn oil, grease, lubricants, paint, rust, and dirt
-
Safely clean any aluminum parts
-
Penetrate and thoroughly clean small holes, small apertures, and crevices
-
Clean sensitive parts including wiring and plastic without damage
Because these parts are cleaned thoroughly, they continue to work effectively and outlast other parts that may not be as clean. This process also decreases the need for and the time spent manually cleaning all of these parts and equipment.

CLEANING SOLUTIONS
Ultrasonic activity (cavitation) helps the solution to do its job; plain water would not normally be effective. The cleaning solution contains ingredients designed to make ultrasonic cleaning more effective. For example, reduction of surface tension increases cavitation levels, so the solution contains a good wetting agent (surfactant). Aqueous cleaning solutions contain detergents, wetting agents and other components, and have a large influence on the cleaning process.
Correct composition of the solution is very dependent upon the item to be cleaned. Solutions are mostly used warm, at about 50-65°C (1 22-149°F), however, in medical applications it is generally accepted that cleaning should be at temperatures below 38°C (10 °F) to prevent protein coagulation. Water-based solutions are more limited in their ability to remove contaminants by chemical action alone than solvent solutions; e.g. for delicate parts covered with thick grease. The effort required to design an effective aqueous-cleaning system for a particular purpose is much greater than for a solvent system.
Some machines (which are not unduly large) are integrated with vapour degreasing machines using hydrocarbon cleaning fluids: Three tanks are used in a cascade. The lower tank containing dirty fluid is heated causing t he fluid to evaporate. At the top of the machine there is a refrigeration coil. Fluid condenses on the coil and falls into the upper tank. The upper tank eventually overflows and clean fluid runs into the work tank where the cleaning takes place. Purchase price is higher than simpler machines, but such machines are economical in the long run. The same fluid can be reused many times, minimising wastage and pollution. Carbon tetrachloride was used in the past, but is now prohibited as a health hazard. Chemicals used in the modern Ultrasonic cleaning units.
