The word sonic quite often brings with it the idea of vibration. If you have never used an ultrasonic cleaner, you might assume that the way it works is by using vibration to shake off dirt and debris from the part being cleaned. This could not be further from the truth. Let’s take a look […]
Will Ultrasonic Cleaning Damage Electronics?
“Never put electronics in water” is a message that has been drilled into us from the time we were small children. Electricity and water do not mix. Since there is no way an ultrasonic cleaner will work without a solution then you cannot use ultrasonics to clean electronics, right? Nope! That’s not the case. Myth […]
Degassing Your Ultrasonic Cleaner Solution
Next to the tank, the most important thing in ultrasonic cleaning is the solution. Over time, your ultrasonic cleaner solution can have a build up small gas bubbles in the liquid. These bubbles can cause problems with the operation of your ultrasonic cleaner. Bubbles and Dissolved Gasses Make for Unwanted Partners Ultrasonic cleaners work by […]
Cleaning and Sterilizing Medical PPE with an Ultrasonic Cleaner
One visit into a room with a patient infected with a virus such as Ebola generates an enormous amount of contaminated Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). Cleaning PPE with normal cleaning methods is not enough. So what can be done to prevent the continual replacement of expensive PPE? A good bit of the PPE is disposable and […]
Is My Ultrasonic Cleaner Working Correctly?
There are several methods available to you which can test the day to day functions of your ultrasonic cleaner. You will want to keep in mind that temperature and solution concentration can have a huge effect on the operation of your unit. If you are going to use these methods, you must perform several tests […]
Ultrasonic Transducer Types: A Comparison of Magnetostrictive vs Piezoelectric Transducers
Which Ultrasonic Transducer Type is Best for my Application? Since the creation of ultrasonic cleaning technology, only two types of transducers have been used to generate the sound waves necessary for the cleaning process: piezoelectric and magnetostrictive. While they both function well enough to have their place in the market, each ultrasonic transducer type has […]
Ultrasonic Cleaning Systems – You Get What You Pay For
Everyone has heard the old saying, “You get what you pay for.” This adage has never gone out of style, and never stopped being true.

Degreasers are chemicals used to remove dirt, grease and other organic lubricants. An ultrasonic degreaser has quite a number of advantages that are environmentally friendly, less harmful to humans and most are non-corrosive and completely remove insoluble substances. Factors to consider before buying decreasing equipment include the pH level, ingredients/chemical composition, proper temperature ranges, and the […]
Know Your Ultrasonic Cleaner Solution
At Omegasonics, we know that there are many different types of ultrasonic cleaner solution. Not all contaminants are removed by all detergents. The type of part you are cleaning also affects your choice of ultrasonic cleaner solution. You would not want to damage what you are cleaning by choosing the wrong solvent. There is an important […]
Ultrasonic Transducers: Piezoelectric vs. Magnetostrictive
Since the development of ultrasonic cleaning systems, only two types of ultrasonic transducers have ever been used to generate the sound waves required for cavitation—piezoelectric and magnetostrictive. Both work effectively, however each has some pluses and minuses; as a result, designers over the years have debated which type is preferable for use in an ultrasonic […]
