Attention is given to an overview of the technique that is used to pre-clean instruments from various kinds of contaminants before their thorough sterilization and disinfection. The main feature of the equipment is the safe processing of any material: glass, plastic, metal. According to buyers, ultrasonic sterilizers made in China have become the best inexpensive models in their business, professional-level installations come from domestic and other foreign companies.
Content
An ultrasonic sink is a stainless steel container (inside), the walls of which are equipped with special transducers / emitters (most often they are piezoelectric).
The technique is used to clean tools of complex configuration. It consists of a frame, bath, ultrasonic generator, control unit. Works on environmentally friendly technology (without the use of strong cleaning agents). Maintaining the device clean (assemblies, parts) is carried out without dismantling.
Before you understand how to choose the right equipment, you need to know how it works and what ultrasonic sterilizers are.
Principle of operation: the generator supplies an alternating current of the desired frequency, which is captured by the emitters and converted into mechanical vibrations.
The operation of the device is based on the effect of cavitation - the formation of millions of small air bubbles in a liquid in a short period of time, and their instantaneous destruction.
The implementation of the process occurs as a result of the alternation of low and high pressure waves under the influence of ultrasound.
Deep cleaning of instruments occurs due to the rupture of bubbles that form on the walls of the container, due to contact with the processed objects, which create a lot of shock microwaves.
Types of ultrasonic sterilizers are conditionally divided into household and professional units. The first category is available to any buyer, is widespread among areas where the processing of small items is required. The second, in most cases, is operated by medical institutions, the price segment for it can be 10 times higher than budget equipment.
On other grounds, equipment is classified according to:
The design features include: the presence of additional functions (heating, accelerated mode), equipment (equipment) and other nuances.
A pre-formulated plan will help not to make mistakes when choosing an ultrasonic bath, which will help the buyer to understand what he needs, and the seller to select the device as accurately as possible according to the criteria put forward. The main purchase requirements include:
According to cosmetologists, small-sized equipment is enough to work in a hairdressing salon, manicure and pedicure salons. This option is also suitable for household activities: sterilize jewelry, glasses, CD / DVD discs, cutlery, small metal parts, food bottles and much more.
Medical facilities need a high-performance machine that can deal with any contamination quickly and efficiently. At the same time, pay attention to the fact that it works on water, a solution in which there are no toxic residues. It is best to buy a heated water sterilizer, but at the same time carefully study the instructions for which items can be processed. In their instruction book, you can learn how to use the unit, its features and other functions.
What is the best device to buy - the choice is up to the buyer.
Speaking of Chinese products, a purchase in the Ali Express online store is immediately associated. This is an option for those who wish to set up a business in the beauty industry (small salon or at home).
You can also order professional equipment online, as a warranty card is required for it. And confidence in the chosen device will be betrayed by customer reviews that describe proven platforms, indicate the advantages and disadvantages of the model.
In household appliances or professional equipment stores, you can also choose the right option, but sometimes it takes more time than buying from a virtual platform.
This category includes compact sterilizers with a minimum set of functions (timer +/- button with an accelerated cleaning function) from a Chinese manufacturer or a joint production with America. Popular models are budget units, designed mainly for cleaning small raw materials from metal, rarely from glass and plastic, as they have a small chamber. In this regard, the main scope of the product is beauty salons, hairdressers, jewelry stores. Top Producers:
