One of the purchasing decisions to be made when considering an ultrasonic cleaner is the frequency at which it operates. Ultrasonic frequency is the term applied to the ultrasonic energy provided by ultrasonic generators and delivered to the transducers affixed to the cleaning tank. It is expressed in kilohertz (kHz).
Ultrasonic cleaners such as those manufactured by Elma and available from Tovatech are available in several frequencies, ranging 25 kHz to 130 kHz. Several units offer a choice between two different frequencies, examples being the Flex and TI-H lines that operate at either 25/45 kHz or 35/130 kHz, and the P line at 37/80 kHz.
