Parts and contaminants · 3 min readUltrasonic cleaning of stainless steel food contact partsValves, pump rotors, fittings, nozzles, sieves and change parts in AISI 304 and 316 stay hygienic only if their surface stays clean and passive. How ultrasonic cleaning fits between dismantling and disinfection, the chemistry that protects stainless, the mistakes that make it rust, and how the result is verified.
Parts and contaminants · 4 min readUltrasonic cleaning of heat exchangers in industryScale, oil, biofilm and deposits on plate packs, tube bundles and coolers cost heat transfer and pumping energy. Which heat exchangers can go into an ultrasonic tank and which cannot, the two-step chemistry for scale and oil, tank sizes for plates and bundles, and the checks before the exchanger goes back into service.
Parts and contaminants · 3 min readUltrasonic cleaning of bottling equipment partsFilling valves, vent tubes, capping and crowning heads, change parts and labeller parts collect sugar, fruit pulp, yeast, beer stone, tartrate and glue. How to clean them at an overhaul or a product change, the chemistry for each beverage soil, and how to keep valve sets and seals in order.
Parts and contaminants · 3 min readCleaning dairy equipment with ultrasonic systemsSeparator discs, homogeniser valves, pasteuriser plates, filling nozzles and cheese moulds carry milk fat, protein and milk stone that cleaning in place does not always remove. The two-step alkaline and acid wash, the temperatures for raw and heat-treated milk soil, and the dairy parts worth taking out for an ultrasonic tank.
Parts and contaminants · 3 min readUltrasonic cleaning of cylinder heads for automotive repairCarbon in the chambers and ports, oil sludge under the cam covers, scale in the water jacket, gasket remains on the deck. How a head is stripped, which bath suits aluminium and which suits cast iron, and where cleaning sits between crack testing and valve-seat work.
Parts and contaminants · 3 min readRemoving rust, scale and oxideUltrasound alone does not remove rust; the chemistry does, and the ultrasound makes it fast and complete. Which chemistries work on steel, aluminium, brass and copper, why they do not go in a standard tank, and how to protect the bare metal you have just exposed.
Industries · 3 min readUltrasonic cleaning in heavy industry: energy, oil and gas, mining, railHeat exchangers, valves, pump and compressor parts, turbine components, hydraulic blocks and filters from plants where a stopped machine costs more per hour than the cleaning tank costs to buy. Large tanks, heavy baskets, scale and heavy oil, and the maintenance schedules they fit into.
