2. Operating Instructions
2.1. General
The following instructions are intended to guide the user when: (1) instructing operators
in techniques designed to ensure optimum equipment performance; and (2) verifying
the validity of operator complaints. See Section 4 - Troubleshooting, if the console is
not operating properly.
2.2. Before Operating this Equipment
1. Ensure that the liquid level is at an appropriate height as to not to damage the
heaters. Minimum level is 8 inches.
2. Check for leaks in the plumbing for a precautionary measure before adding
chemicals.
3. Plug the power cable into the appropriate voltage outlet. Using incorrect voltage will
not allow the cleaner to operate properly and may damage the system.
2.3. Operating the Equipment
1. Getting Started - Locate the unit on a solid and level surface. If you are filling the
unit with a hose be sure the customer provided disconnect switch is in the off
position prior to filling the machine to avoid splashing the internal electrical
components.
2. Filling the Unit - Check to be sure the drain valve is tightly closed. Fill the tank up
to the recommended working level with high quality water. If tap water is not of good
quality, it is recommended that filtered water is used to allow the detergent to
perform at its highest level. Optimum water temperature will vary as some
chemicals will require higher temperatures for proper cleaning.
3. Set Heater temperature –For most industrial applications, 140F is the
recommended fluid temperature. Some applications or detergents will require other
temperatures and may be as low as 90F. Consult your sales representative if you
do not know what temperature to set the unit to.
4. Adding Chemicals –Use the mixture rate recommended by the detergent
manufacturer. After cleaning one or two items, you may choose to increase the
chemical ratio. The amount of chemical will be based on the condition of the water
being used and how much contamination is to be removed. Detergents that are
used in this ultrasonic cleaning system must be compatible with 304 and 316L
stainless steel. You will void the warranty if chemical attack to the stainless
steel occurs.
