UNISONICS ULTRASONIC CLEANERS, ST SERIES
Unisonics industrial/commercial ultrasonic cleaners, the ST Series, is a high performance ultrasonic cleaning system. The single chamber device is used to clean surgical instruments and other hardware with sonic energy in a water detergent solution. The process generates a randomised sweep frequency through the ultrasonic bandwidth, which provides the most uniform fields of cavitation available in a 40KHz-process tank. The unit has been designed for use in surgery reprocessing areas, central processing departments and laboratories.

FEATURES
  • Solid 304 grade stainless steel construction
  • 0.9mm external walls, chamber is 1.6mm thick
  • Integral plumbing is SS, drainage valve is welded into chamber
  • Standard sizes ranging from 18 to 54 litres
  • Electronic digital or mechanical timers
  • Thermostat controlled heater (optional)
  • Sweep frequency
  • Polyester coated transducers
  • Circuit breaker and air cooling of power circuits
  • Rounded corner reflex design
  • Stainless steel lid plus basket (standard in all models)
  • Insulation

BRANSON SONIFIER® PRODUCTS


Branson Sonifier ultrasonic cell disruptors are versatile laboratory tools designed to apply high-frequency ultrasonic energy to biological and chemical processing to:
  • Disrupt cellular structures
  • Homogenize samples
  • Emulsify materials
  • Disperse or mix compounds
  • Accelerate reactions

Sonifiers are able to process static samples from 1mL to greater than 500mL or flowing material up to 40L/h. Analog units are available in two power levels. Digitally-operated units are offered in three power levels and are suggested for applications requiring higher levels of process control or parameter measurement.

Analog Units
Sonifier analog cell disruptors and homogenizers are available in 200 watt (Model S-250A) and 400 watt (Model S-450A) models. These capable units are widely-used in laboratories to facilitate a wide range of biological and chemical processes.

Digital Units
The Sonifier S-250D 200 watt and S-450D 400 watt units offer all of the capability of the analog models, plus digital control for precise process control and parameter meaurement. They are particularly suitable for larger or more difficult samples.

The Sonifier S-150D 100 watt digital unit is a full-featured, lower power unit designed to effectively process the smaller samples often associated with genome and other biological research.

ANALOG UNITS - Models S-250A & S-450A


DESCRIPTION
Branson Sonifier ultrasonic cell disruptor / homogenizers are versatile laboratory units suitable for a broad range of liquid processing applications such as:
  • Biological cell disruption / homogenization
  • Emulsification
  • Reaction acceleration
  • Dispersion
  • Fine mixing
  • Degasing

Each model consists of a power supply, a converter, and a mechanical probe or horn. The power supply/converter changes standard electrical power to high frequency mechanical energy, which is then applied to the horn, where it is further amplified for use (often with specialized accessories)
