2 / Safety
6/36 51846-000 en/2022-07
2Safety
2.1 Use of the device
The device is used in laboratories, clinics and in industrial research. It performs
diverse tasks during sample preparation in Quality Assurance, scientific experi-
ments, analyses, and in pilot or short-series manufacture.
Examples of applications are:
• Disruption of cells, bacteria, viruses, tissue
• Production of the finest emulsions
• Homogenising of substances
• Degassing of liquids
• Sample preparation for the grain size analysis
• Acceleration of chemical reactions
• Sample preparation for sewerage analysis
2.2 Explosion hazard
Do not use the device with combustible liquids as a sonicating medium.
Combustible vapours may be generated when flammable liquids are sonicated.
Vapours may ignite, e.g. on electrical components, resulting in an explosion.
Do not use combustible solvents in open sonication vessels, as the operational
safety of the device could be compromised. Safe extraction of combustible
vapours must be guaranteed.
2.3 Hazards due to high temperature
Ultrasound heats up the sonicating medium. The device, the sonicating medium
and the sonication vessel can become very hot during prolonged ultrasound oper-
ation. Contact with these products may cause burns.
• Do not leave the ultrasound switched on for longer than necessary.
• Allow the probe and sonication vessel to cool down before touching them.
Non-aqueous liquids can heat up many times faster than water. A possible flash-
point can be reached or exceeded after a very short sonication time. In the case of
high-boiling liquids, the temperature can rise to over 120 °C due to the energy
input of the ultrasound. This can lead to fires and severe burns.

51846-000 en/2022-07 7/36
Safety/2
2.4 Danger of electric shock
The device is an electrical device. Failure to follow safety rules can result in a life-
threatening electric shock.
• Protect the device from moisture and wetness. Keep the surfaces and the
touchscreen clean and dry.
• Do not spray or expose the device to splash water.
• Do not cover the device.
• Position the device so that it is easy to unplug the mains connection at any
time and without difficulty.
• Only connect the device to a power outlet with a grounded socket.
• If you notice a defect in the device, disconnect the mains plug immediately. Do
not connect a defective device to the mains.
• Repairs should only be carried out by the manufacturer.
2.5 Danger due to ultrasound
Strong ultrasound destroys cell structures. Exposing a body part to ultrasound
can lead not just to skin damage, but also to internal tissue damage. On fingers,
the periosteum can become damaged.
• Do not touch the probe, the booster horn or the standard horn during opera-
tion. Do not touch the sonication fluid during operation.
• Never sonicate living beings.
2.6 Danger due to the sonicating medium
The sonicating media treated with the device can be toxic, corrosive or otherwise
harmful to health. Vapours and aerosols can also be dangerous.
• Wear gloves and safety goggles when handling hazardous preparations.
• Make sure that the sonicating medium does not splash. This can particularly
occur with small quantities of sonicating medium. Only switch on the device
once the probe has been immersed in the sonicating medium. Start sonication
with a low amplitude.
• Do not lean over the ultrasound bath, in order to avoid vapours from coming
into contact with the eyes or from being inhaled.
• In case of dangerous vapours, use a suction device.

2 / Safety
8/36 51846-000 en/2022-07
2.7 Harmful to health due to ultrasound noise
The ultrasound noise typical of the process can be perceived as very unpleasant.
Remaining within a radius of 2 m for an extended period of time may cause dam-
age to health.
• Use a sound proof box; see 9Accessories. The sound proof box significantly
reduces the noise level.
• When operating without a sound proof box, wear hearing protection.
2.8 Keep out of reach of children
Children cannot identify hazards posed by the ultrasound bath. Therefore, keep
the ultrasound bath out of the reach of children.
2.9 Damage to the probe and sonication vessel
Probes are sensitive to shock. Handle the probes with care.
Make sure that the probe does not touch the sonication vessel. This can damage
the probe and the vessel.
Foreign bodies on the contact surface between the probe and standard horn or
booster horn can destroy both parts. Therefore, always clean the contact surfaces
thoroughly before mounting the probe.
The sound-emitting surface of the probe is subject to erosion. Erosion reduces
the efficiency of the sonication process. The sonication of corrosive liquids leads
to increased wear.
The sound-emitting surface can be reconditioned up to a certain point of erosion.
See 6.2Refurbish probe.
2.10 Disturbance of wireless communication
The device may interfere with other wireless communication ultrasound baths in
the immediate vicinity.
If interference occurs with the operation of a wireless device, move it further
away from the ultrasound bath.

3.2 Symbols and buttons on the touch screen
3.3 Function
The device transforms the absorbed grid energy into high-frequency energy. The
ultrasonic converter converts the high-frequency energy into ultrasound. At the
tip of the probe, mechanical deflections are created that are transferred into the
sonicating medium as ultrasonic waves with a high power density. The standard
horn or booster horn allows multiple amplification of the mechanical amplitude at
the probe tip.
For sonication, the power or amplitude can be selected as the reference variable.
If the amplitude is selected as the reference variable, it is kept constant by the
ultrasonic converter regardless of the load, provided that the permissible maxi-
mum power is not exceeded. An optional temperature sensor enables the tem-
perature of the sonicating medium to be monitored.
The device saves documentation of its function. Documentation can be backed up
via a USB port or LAN port for evaluation and archiving.
The device is operated with a touchscreen. In addition, the ultrasound can be
switched on and off with a button on the ultrasonic converter.

5.1 Immersion depth notes
The recommended immersion depth for probes is 10 ... 20 mm, to prevent the
aspiration and mixing-in of air. If mixed-in air is desired, the probe may be
immersed just a few millimetres.
When producing emulsions, the probe should be immersed to the height of the
surface separating the liquids to be mixed.
5.2 Preselect parameters for sonication
5.2.1 Set amplitude or power
Information
In the case of greater immersion depths or the sonication of liquids with high vis-
cosities, the probe is more heavily damped. As a result, the preset amplitude may
not be reached.
The device can regulate the emitted ultrasonic power so that either a set ampli-
tude is kept constant or a set power is kept constant. The amplitude is given in %.
The absolute value of the amplitude depends on the combination of standard
horn or booster horn and probe. The power is specified in watts and depends on
the respective ultrasonic converter.
1. On the startup screen, tap "Parameters".
2. Tap "Ampl./Power".
3. Tap "Amplitude" if sonication is to be carried out with a constant amplitude, or
"Power" if sonication is to be carried out with a constant power.
4. Select the desired value for amplitude or power. You can move the bar of the
selected setting parameter or enter a numerical value.
5. Confirm your entry with the "Confirm/Save" button.
With amplitude regulation, the amplitude is kept constant. The power can vary
depending on the condition of the medium. When the respective maximum power
is reached, the amplitude is reduced.
Power control keeps the power constant. The power can vary depending on the
condition of the medium. When the respective maximum amplitude is reached,
the power is reduced.
