Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is the benefit of the "Degas" function on Bandelin Sonorex baths?
The Degas function quickly removes dissolved air from the cleaning liquid or HPLC solvents, which significantly increases the efficiency of the ultrasonic cleaning process and ensures accurate analytical results.
2. Can I use flammable liquids in a Bandelin ultrasonic bath?
No, flammable liquids should never be placed directly in the stainless steel tank. However, small amounts can be processed inside insert beakers placed in a water-filled bath, provided safety precautions are followed.
3. What makes Sonopuls homogenizers different from ultrasonic baths?
While baths use indirect ultrasound for cleaning, Sonopuls homogenizers deliver high-intensity ultrasound directly into the sample via a probe (sonotrode), making them ideal for cell disruption and homogenization.
4. How often should the cleaning liquid in the bath be changed?
The liquid should be changed as soon as it becomes visibly dirty or when cleaning performance diminishes. For optimal results, it is recommended to refresh the solution at least once a day in high-use environments.
