Ultrasonic cleaning of a mobile phone

Ultrasonic cleaning is a process that uses ultrasound (usually from 20–40 kHz) to agitate a fluid. The ultrasound can be used with just water, but use of a solvent appropriate for the object to be cleaned and the type of soiling present enhances the effect. Cleaning normally lasts between three and six minutes, but can also exceed 20 minutes, depending on which object has to be cleaned.[1]

Ultrasonic cleaners are used to clean many different types of objects, including jewelry, scientific samples, lenses and other optical parts, watches, dental and surgical instruments, tools, coins, fountain pens, golf clubs, fishing reels, window blinds, firearm components, car fuel injectors, musical instruments, gramophone records, industrial machine parts and electronic equipment. They are used in many jewelry workshops, watchmakers' establishments, electronic repair workshops[2] and scientific labs.

History[edit]

The surface mechanisms of ultrasonic cleaning are well understood, with many works dedicated to this science since the first commercial ultrasonic cleaning equipment appeared in the 1950s, and came into use as relatively inexpensive home appliances in about 1970.[3] Ultrasonic cleaning has been used industrially for decades, particularly to clean small intricate parts, and to accelerate surface treatment processes.[4]

Process characteristics[edit]

Ultrasonic cleaning uses cavitation bubbles induced by high frequency pressure (sound) waves to agitate a liquid. The agitation produces high forces on contaminants adhering to substrates like metals, plastics, glass, rubber, and ceramics. This action also penetrates blind holes, cracks, and recesses. The intention is to thoroughly remove all traces of contamination tightly adhering or embedded onto solid surfaces. Water or solvents can be used, depending on the type of contamination and the workpiece. Contaminants can include dust, dirt, oil, pigments, rust, grease, algae, fungus, bacteria, lime scale, polishing compounds, flux agents, fingerprints, soot wax and mold release agents, biological soil like blood, and so on. Ultrasonic cleaning can be used for a wide range of workpiece shapes, sizes and materials, and may not require the part to be disassembled prior to cleaning.[5]

Objects must not be allowed to rest on the bottom of the device during the cleaning process, because that will prevent cavitation from taking place on the part of the object not in contact with solvent.[2]

Design and operating principle[edit]

In an ultrasonic cleaner, the object to be cleaned is placed in a chamber containing a suitable solution (in an aqueous or organic solvent, depending on the application). In aqueous cleaners, surfactants (e.g., laundry detergent) are often added to permit dissolution of non-polar compounds such as oils and greases. An ultrasound generating transducer built into the chamber, or lowered into the fluid, produces ultrasonic waves in the fluid by changing size in concert with an electrical signal oscillating at ultrasonic frequency. This creates compression waves in the liquid of the tank which 'tear' the liquid apart, leaving behind many millions of microscopic 'voids'/'partial vacuum bubbles' (cavitation). These bubbles collapse with enormous energy; temperatures and pressures on the order of 5,000 K and 135 MPa are achieved;[6][7] however, they are so small that they do no more than clean and remove surface dirt and contaminants. The higher the frequency, the smaller the nodes between the cavitation points, which allows for cleaning of more intricate detail.

Transducers are usually piezoelectric (e.g. made with lead zirconate titanate (PZT), barium titanate, etc.), but are sometimes magnetostrictive. The often harsh chemicals used as cleaners in many industries are not needed, or used in much lower concentrations, with ultrasonic agitation. Ultrasonics are used for industrial cleaning, and also used in many medical and dental techniques and industrial processes.

Cleaning solution[edit]

Ultrasonic activity (cavitation) helps the solution to do its job; plain water would not normally be effective. The cleaning solution contains ingredients designed to make ultrasonic cleaning more effective. For example, reduction of surface tension increases cavitation levels, so the solution contains a good wetting agent (surfactant). Aqueous cleaning solutions contain detergents, wetting agents and other components, and have a large influence on the cleaning process. Correct composition of the solution is very dependent upon the item cleaned. Solutions are mostly used warm, at about 50–65 °C (122–149 °F), however, in medical applications it is generally accepted that cleaning should be at temperatures below 45 °C (113 °F) to prevent protein coagulation.

Water-based solutions are more limited in their ability to remove contaminants by chemical action alone than solvent solutions; e.g. for delicate parts covered with thick grease. The effort required to design an effective aqueous-cleaning system for a particular purpose is much greater than for a solvent system.

Some machines (which are not unduly large) are integrated with vapour degreasing machines using hydrocarbon cleaning fluids: Three tanks are used in a cascade. The lower tank containing dirty fluid is heated causing the fluid to evaporate. At the top of the machine there is a refrigeration coil. Fluid condenses on the coil and falls into the upper tank. The upper tank eventually overflows and clean fluid runs into the work tank where the cleaning takes place. Purchase price is higher than simpler machines, but such machines are economical in the long run. The same fluid can be reused many times, minimising wastage and pollution.

Uses[edit]

Most hard, non-absorbent materials (metals, plastics, etc.) not chemically attacked by the cleaning fluid are suitable for ultrasonic cleaning. Ideal materials for ultrasonic cleaning include small electronic parts, cables, rods, wires and detailed items, as well as objects made of glass, plastic, aluminium or ceramic.[8]

Ultrasonic cleaning does not sterilize the objects being cleaned, because spores and viruses will remain on the objects after cleaning. In medical applications, sterilization normally follows ultrasonic cleaning as a separate step.[9]

Industrial ultrasonic cleaners are used in the automotive, sporting, printing, marine, medical, pharmaceutical, electroplating, disk drive components, engineering and weapons industries.

Ultrasonic cleaning is used to remove contamination from industrial process equipment such as pipes and heat exchangers. Iar for 8051 keygen free.

Limitations[edit]

Ultrasonic cleaning is used widely to remove flux residue from soldered circuit boards. However, some electronic components, notably MEMS devices such as gyroscopes, accelerometers and microphones can become damaged or destroyed by the high intensity vibrations they are subjected to during cleaning. Piezoelectric buzzers can work in reverse and produce voltage, which may pose a danger to their drive circuits.

Safety[edit]

It is recommended to avoid using flammable cleaning solutions because ultrasonic cleaners increase temperature even when not equipped with a heater. When the unit is running, inserting your hand into the solution could cause burning due to the temperature; discomfort and skin irritation can also occur.[10]

Why pay $2 – $12 for jewelry cleaner solution when you don't have to?
Most people already have the needed ingredients at home. :)

All you have to do is put them together.

The big secret:

International Silver Company Sonic Jewelry Cleaner Manual Pdf

Here's a secret that many don't know… This is what the pros use. They don't use the cleaning solution that they sell over the counter, oh no. They make their own simple formulas that anyone can do. Plus, it works better anyway. :)

Jewelry cleaner is nothing more than a strong cleaning solution and a little suds.

So why spend the money?

Just walk over to your kitchen cupboards and pull out these common cleaners:

  • Mr. Clean (or Ammonia)
  • Dawn Dish Soap (or any Dish Soap)

There you have it.

Easy at that. Now run some hot tap water, grab a bowl and mix in 7 parts hot water, 1 part Mr. Clean and a tiny squirt of Dawn Dish soap… Like so…

Stir it up and you're ready to clean.

You're in hot water:

Sonic Jewelry Cleaner Machine

You see, the hot water (not boiling) is the trick. It does wonders to cleaning your jewelry, diamonds and gemstones (ever try doing dishes in cold water? It doesn't work so well).

Just be careful not to put fragile gems like emeralds, tanzanite, opal or pearls in the hot liquid (see full list here). The hot water could dry out the gems and crack them. But for harder gemstones like sapphire, ruby, diamond, topaz and quartz; no problem. It works like a charm.

Let your jewelry soak in the solution for a few minutes, or put this solution into your ultrasonic cleaner and turn it on. It usually takes about 3 minutes to soak and agitate to remove most dirt and debris. When you see dirt particles breaking off and dissolving away from your jewelry, you'll know it's working.

Where's the toothbrush?

Now take an old soft toothbrush and gently dab at your jewelry to remove any remaining dirt or debris.

Make sure you get underneath the diamonds, prongs and crevices where crud will build up.

Rinse off your items with warm tap water (don't let them go down the drain), and your rings will sparkle like the day you bought them.

It's quick, it's easy, and this is what the jewelry stores use.

So unless the stores actually give you a bottle of solution for free… MAKE YOUR OWN!

Clean your diamonds and gemstones once a week to keep them clean, and this will also prolong the life of your jewelry. The dirt won't erode them.

It's a simple cleaning solution that works just as well as the pros.

And you did it all for free.

Cheers! :)
