For cleaning larger parts with volatile solvents you’ll need a SOL XP explosion-proof ultrasonic cleaner available from Tovatech. Fully nitrogen inerted for fire protection. ETL approved as sold, no additional approvals required.
Flammable solvent ready beaker kits.
Elmasolvex VA certified explosion-proof automated solvent cleaning for delicate parts.
We offer several types of equipment to handle flammable solvents safely.
Cleaning with volatile solvent leaves no residue. Three paths depending on part size, throughput, and EHS requirements.
Explosion-proof units with NRTL certification for use with flammable solvents.
Use covered beakers inside a water bath to minimize vapor release.
Explosion-proof wash, rinse, vacuum-dry small parts in a single chamber.
Match the approach to part size, throughput, and EHS requirements.
Beaker kits are used to treat samples or clean small parts in 1-liter or 600 mL beakers.
SOL XP tanks provide classified-area controls and rugged uptime for daily shifts.
Elmasolvex VA automates agitation and filtration, removing lubricants, greases, oils, oxidation, and graphites from micro mechanical precision parts.
No. Open tanks with non-rated controls can ignite solvent vapors. Use explosion-proof systems with proper ventilation. Alternatively, use a beaker kit.
Any time you use flammable or combustible solvents, or when your EHS, NFPA, or insurance requirements specify ignition control and vapor management.
Solvent is placed inside covered beakers while ultrasonic energy couples through a water bath. Vapor release is minimized and proper ventilation keeps vapor away from the ultrasonic generator. Note that beaker kits do not have explosion proof certification.
SOL XP tanks comply with ETL/Intertek safety certification using the following methods: Remote location of the electrical panel and generator outside the hazardous duty area, intrinsically safe circuits on tanks, nitrogen-purged transducer enclosure, and self-closing lid for fire protection. These features enable you to process large solvent volumes while maintaining compliance.
Elmasolvex VA systems include filtration. SOL XP offers an optional solvent purification system which includes activated carbon, deionization media, desiccant, and particulate filtration. Filter media can be customized for your application. For other setups, plan for safe solvent change-out, storage, and disposal per your safety program.
Yes. These are not closed loop systems. Use local exhaust or a hood to remove solvent vapors and protect operators. Elmasolvex VA offers an optional activated carbon-based absorber unit to extract solvent vapors instead of discharging them to an exhaust or open air. Follow your facility safety officer's guidance for airflow, monitoring, and classification.
