SOLVENT CLEANING SYSTEMS


Microsolve ultrasonic precision cleaning systems attain the highest cleaning standards yet keep running costs surprisingly low.

Users have a choice of processes: in broad terms MONO-SOLVENT for general precision cleaning, CO-SOLVENT where contamination is particularly heavy or for some applications in electronics, and
3-SUMP for certain special applications.

Options
Options include dual frequency ultrasonics, solvent monitoring with auto top-up, and a choice of Autotrans robotic work handling systems.
LOW SOLVENT USAGE

Solvent retention features unique to Microsolve systems - triple coil reflux cooling, vapour break, 150% freeboard, optional solvent monitoring and auto top-up - ensure that our systems are safe to use and fully compliant with environmental and safety legislation including the Solvent Emissions Directive (SED). These design features also mean that Microsolve systems operate with low, predictable solvent usage and customers enjoy
low, predictable running costs.

Our solvent monitoring device allows users to check consumption: 3 litres of HFE per 40-hour week is typical in a Co-solvent 350 system.

Microsolve Mono-Solvent two-stage systems provide ultrasonic cleaning using HFE (hydrofluoroether) or HFC (hydrofluoro-carbon) solvents, followed by vapour rinsing and freeboard dry.

Typical applications include bearings, gyro components and precision medical components; maintenance cleaning of pneumatic and hydraulic components; and, in electronics, flux removal from PCBs or from soldering jigs and fixtures.

Microsolve 250 mono-solvent system reduces solvent consumption by 85% for medical device manufacturer



Microsolve Co-Solvent systems provide two ultrasonic cleaning stages, followed by vapour rinsing and freeboard dry. In the first cleaning stage a mixture of HFE and a hydrocarbon solvating agent removes gross contamination from
the components. Large quantities
of dirt and oils can be taken up by
the solvating agent, making the process particularly suitable for heavy duty ultrasonic cleaning applications.

The Co-solvent process handles with ease applications such as removal of polishing compounds, maintenance cleaning of power generation system components, and flux removal from PCBs, including no-clean and lead-free solder flux residues.

Microsolve 3-sump systems are available for certain special applications. In the system shown left, stage 1 provides ultrasonic cleaning and stage 2 an immersion rinse. This is followed by vapour rinsing (provided by sump 3) and freeboard dry.
