Single Tank Ultrasonic Cleaners

These Single tank ultrasonic cleaners are most often used when only a small number of parts are cleaned. It is important to remember that you should use an industrial grade ultrasonic cleaning system, not one of the standard table top types. Most table top systems are very lightly constructed and have small transducers, with the generator, tank and heater in the same shell. These single tank aqueous ultrasonic cleaners are used primarily for cleaning small parts, once or twice a day. They are not designed to provide high throughput or a high end clean part. Industrial Table Top Tanks always have the generator as a separate unit, this prevents damage by the heat generated in the ultrasonic tank and allows more room for larger transducers on the tank bottom.

Single industrial table top tanks can be set up to clean parts as well as a multiple tank system at far less cost. Of course there is no free lunch. A single tank system requires a manual cleaning procedure with full operator attendance. Another restriction is that you are limited by the size of a table top to smaller loads, especially if you are using a multiple beaker cleaning system where 3 or 4 beakers are placed in a holder and filled with cleaning and rinsing solutions. The parts are manually transferred from one beaker to another. Single tank ultrasonic cleaners are ideal for low volume, lab type or prototype cleaning lines.
