FAQ

How can the device be cleaned and maintained?

It is usually sufficient to wipe the transducer thoroughly after each use and remove sample residue with a mild cleaning agent. Thanks to the IP65 standard, it is resistant to splashing water. Nevertheless, care should be taken during cleaning to ensure that no liquid enters the electronic components.

Is the model also suitable for temperature-sensitive samples?

Yes, thanks to the effective control of the ultrasonic amplitude, even sensitive materials can be homogenised or emulsified at moderate temperatures. This minimises unwanted heating of the samples.

Which accessories are recommended?

Various sonotrodes (e.g. with different diameters), glass flow cells and soundproof boxes are available for special requirements. The manufacturer also offers suitable stands and other sample accessories.

Can this ultrasonic device be used for multiple layers (e.g. multiphase samples)?

Absolutely. Especially with multiphase samples, a powerful but evenly distributed ultrasonic pulse is required to produce a homogeneous end result. The system can be flexibly adapted to various sample setups.
