4 Use
The shaking device is used together with the SONOREX DIGITEC DT 1028 F flat
ultrasonic bath. Depending on the application, the shaking usually occurs indirectly in
laboratory flasks or other vessels, which are positioned in the
roller carriage.
Direct sonication of objects in the bath fluid is not permitted in
the DT...F ultrasonic baths and the shaking device.
Notes on the use with the ultrasonic coupling
If inset beakers are used in the ultrasonic bath, a contact fluid
must always be used as otherwise the ultrasound cannot pass
through the air (between the ultrasonic oscillating tank and the inset beaker). This
contact fluid must be able to transfer the ultrasound to the fluid in the inset beaker
without loss if possible.
For more detailed information and instructions on correct ultrasound applications,
please refer to the user instructions for the ultrasonic bath.
4.1 Preparing the roller carriage for the application
To avoid the flasks' moving around or tipping over during operation of the shaking
device, BANDELIN recommends the use of special "EK" holding clamps, see Section 7.
The device must always be switched offbefore the roller carriage is equipped with the
holding clamps. The ultrasonic bath should also be switched offduring the procedure.
Release the coupling on the roller carriage: Grasp the lever 1 behind the bearing cup
2 and pull it upwards. Leave or place the clip bearing 3 back on the ball stud. The
roller carriage can now be taken offthe ultrasonic bath.
Equip the roller carriage with the holding clamps or replace the clamps if already
mounted.
Position the roller carriage back on the rim of the bath and check it for free
movement.
Press/click the bearing cup 2 onto the lever 1 on the ball stud (with clip bearing 3).

4.2 Shaking
It is possible to treat multiple sample vessels with different fluids at the same time.
Caution
When treating small quantities of combustible fluids in sample vessels, the
country-specific guidelines/regulations that are currently in effect are to be
observed!
Remove any air bubbles below the vessels.
Caution
There is a risk of being crushed between the tank edge and roller carriage after
switched on!
Step 1: Fill the ultrasonic bath and degas it
Check that the oscillating tank is filled with water and a suitable preparation to reduce
the surface tension (contact liquid), please refer to the user instructions of the ultrasonic
bath.
Step 2: Insert objects to be treated
Before every sonication it is necessary to check whether the
contact fluid needs to be cleaned or replaced.
The laboratory flasks can be secured in the roller carriage with
EK holding clamps, see chapter 7.1.
Equip the roller carriage with laboratory flasks.
The laboratory flasks must be immersed at least 2 cm deep in
the contact fluid. Ensure the oscillating tank is 2/3 full.
The fill level of the oscillating tank must always be at or slightly
above the filling level mark following equipment. A low fill level will damage the
ultrasonic bath!
Step 3: Power setting
Set the knob for power setting to the lowest setting, see Section 3.2.
Check that the movement does not make any sample fluid come out of the
laboratory flasks. Only then should you start the ultrasonic bath in accordance with
the user instructions.
Caution:
When working with aggressive preparations/sample, if splashes fall in the contact
fluid or on the stainless steel surface: change the contact fluid immediately if
necessary, clean the surfaces and wipe dry.
Step 4: Time setting
Set the required shaking period, see Section 3.1.
Set the required sonication period at the ultrasonic bath and start the ultrasound, see
separate user instructions.

1electronic GmbH & Co. KG • Heinrichstraße 3-4 • 12207 Berlin • Deutschland • [email protected]
Step 5: Switch off
If necessary switch offthe shaking device and ultrasonic bath.
Step 6: Removing the laboratory flasks
Then remove the laboratory flasks from the roller carriage
CAUTION:
Depending on the length of the sonication, the flasks/samples may be hot.
Before the next sonication, verify the service life of the contact liquid. Heed the
specifications of the preparation manufacturer. If the solution becomes heavily
contaminated, it should be replaced earlier as it can reduce the efficacy of the
ultrasound. For more detailed information, please refer to the user instructions of the
ultrasonic bath.
