Product Details
The Powersonic model P1200HT-45 from Crest Ultrasonics is a 2.5-gallon ultrasonic heated cleaner designed for robust cleaning applications. It features a digital display, a timer adjustable from 0 to 99 minutes, and a thermostat range of 20-80 degrees Celsius (175 degrees Fahrenheit), providing 600 watts of heating power. The unit has an ultrasonic power output averaging 200 watts and operates at a frequency of 45 kHz, with a sweep of +/- 1.5 kHz. This model incorporates an exclusive feature that sweeps the ultrasonic frequency by 3 kHz, ensuring uniform cleaning throughout the tank and eliminating hot spots that can result from conventional ultrasonic power supplies. Cavitation, the core mechanism of ultrasonic cleaning, occurs when ultrasonic energy creates alternating low and high-pressure phases that cause bubbles to form and implode, resulting in an intense scrubbing action. This process allows the cleaner to effectively reach microscopic crevices, offering superior cleaning speed and consistency. The unit is backed by a 2-year parts and labor warranty and is designed with industrial-strength performance suited for benchtop use, making it a valuable investment for a variety of cleaning needs.
