Ultrasonic Bath Testing

A widely accepted means to establish an ultrasonic cleaner performance benchmark is called the foil test it is simple very effective and should be initiated as soon as you place your new unit in service.

Ultrasonic bath testing.

Firstly you want to fill your tank with clean mains water with no chemical in. Once the foil is in place the bath should be run on a standard cycle or a time determined by the manufacturer. Cleaning pans act as a second cleaning tank when placed. It is really easy to do and all you need is a piece of aluminium kitchen foil and your ultrasonic tank.

Ultrasonic activity test this test determines that every possible area of the ultrasonic bath has cavitation happening within it and is carried out quarterly. This provides you with a baseline that allows you to monitor performance on an ongoing basis. These ultrasonic cleaners use sound waves moving through the solution to create a scrubbing action that removes dirt from crevices and between tightly spaced parts. When a customer asks us how they can check the performance of their ultrasonic tank the easiest way to do it is through a foil test.

The frequency of testing is the responsibility of the user. The foil test is a simple procedure for demonstrating the intensity and distribution of cavitation in an ultrasonic bath. Strips of foil are suspended in the solution. Heavy duty baskets have solid sides with a perforated mesh bottom.

Heat cleaning solutions to increase their effectiveness. A foil test1is recommended for testing ultrasonic baths. Ultrasonic baths are a great way to clean items or to dissolve solids into solvents fast.
