The main purpose of ultrasound cleaning is to introduce high-energy sound waves into a transportable basin filled with water and cleaning agent. In this basin, the filter elements are completely submerged.
By imploding bubbles, the adhering to the filter elements dirt particles are blasted. This achieves a cleaning otherwise difficult to access places. Compared with other cleaning methods, ultrasonic cleaning achieves a high-quality protection of the filter elements.
The environment is also spared, as water consumption is reduced many times over. If one cleans a filter element by means of a high-pressure cleaner, one needs per filter element, depending on the degree of soiling, 40-50 liters of water, which must be disposed of as hazardous waste. In a cleaning bath (about 200 liters) you can clean up to 20 collector cells and other filter elements in a row. The cost savings are enormous here.
