Ultrasonic Cleaning

Ultrasonic cleaning is usually done at a single frequency and is often a time based process rather than a number of vibrations.

The process is basically immerse the parts into the cleaning fluid (which could be Isopropyl alcohol, water, methylated spirits or a water/detergent mixture) and then activate the ultrasonic equipment.

The ultrasonic excitation causes micrscopic cavitation within the fluid and these small gas bubbles then separate the parent material from the contaminant which then hopefully falls to the bottom of the tank.

You will need to talk to a specialist who can advise you on matching your specific materials to the necessary liquid and excitation power.

I do have contact with an international equipment supplier/installer who I could put you in contact with if you need further detail (like quotations and equipment options).

How many vibrations are sent at

25KHZ, = 25,000

30KHZ, = 30,000

and so on

12o watts = power, not frequency
