Ultrasonic cleaning with digital controls

Pulsatron M300 ultrasonic generator features digital controls

Kerry Ultrasonics has launched two new pieces of ultrasonic cleaning equipment.

The KS Mk2 cleaning tank and the UCR Mk2 wash and rinse system feature the company's powerful new Pulsatron M300 ultrasonic generator, along with digital controls for precise process management.

The tanks operate at 38kHz, but an optional Neptune dual-frequency generator control is available for both models in all sizes.

The device enables sensitive or intricately shaped parts to be effectively cleaned at a safe frequency of 70kHz.

Both types of system can also be supplied with KPF60 pumped filtration units to maintain the purity of cleaning solutions.

The tanks are very easy to operate, automatically reverting to last-used settings at switch on.

An LCD display shows set and run times and temperatures, while a four-keypad control panel allows the setting of ultrasonic time and solution temperature, the former in 6s increments to a maximum of 99.9 minutes, the latter in one degree increments up to 80C.

Ultrasonic transducers bonded to the tank base provide high levels of performance and reliability together with uniform distribution of ultrasonic energy.

The ultrasonic frequency is tuned to each tank and transducer combination and then optimised under normal usage conditions through the use of a frequency sweep of up to 2kHz.
