An ultrasonic converter is used to convert the electrical energy supplied by the ultrasonic generator into mechanical vibrations.
Ultrasonic operation can be started and stopped by operating the 'Start', 'Pause' and 'Stop' buttons on the touch display or via the button on the ultrasonic converter.
With the exception of the UW 5020, which operates at 30 kHz, all other SONOPULS ultrasonic converters in the 5000 series operate at an ultrasonic frequency of 20 kHz.
There is a button on the ultrasonic converter. This can be used to switch ultrasonic operation ON/OFF and to control hand guided pulsation. There is also a connection socket on the ultrasonic converter for using a temperature sensor to monitor the sample temperature.
For temperature monitoring, the temperature sensor is connected to the socket provided for this purpose, which is otherwise covered with a dust cap. A temperature display appears on the generator, allowing the user to record the temperature at any time. If the limit temperature is exceeded, a warning signal sounds and/or the process is automatically stopped.
