Parts Washers: Ultrasonic Components

Single Frequency Ultrasonic Generators

Blackstone-NEY Ultrasonics is a recognized leader in ultrasonic generator technology. Starting with the introduction of sweeping frequency in 1988, there has been a continuous stream of development and patents covering new ultrasonic generator and transducer technology from Blackstone-NEY Ultrasonics. Entire families of generators meeting the specific needs of a growing list of ultrasonics and parts washing applications are now available.

Neptune ®C Generators

Available in 25 kHz and 40 kHz single frequency generator models

Neptune ®C Ultrasonic Generators deliver the most compact, energy efficient and cost-effective ultrasonic performance in the industry. Highly reliable and designed for continuous operation, 24 hours a day if needed, each Neptune Generator features:

Uniform Cavitation with Rapid Degas- Neptune generators from Blackstone-NEY Ultrasonics cavitate challenging cleaning chemistries, even difficult hydrocarbon and semi-aqueous solvents, with ease. Digital technology produces a unique waveform for uniform cavitation throughout the tank and the fastest degassing in the industry. This allows rapid return to normal process operation reducing cleaning time and improving productivity.

High Performance, High Reliability Cleaning- Neptune ®C is designed for high performance over a long service life. In fact, its two-year guarantee is one of the best in the industry. All Neptune ®C models are equipped with low line-voltage and over-temperature safety cut-outs.

Original Equipment Manufacturer Capabilities- OEM versions are available for electrical box integration. Blackstone-NEY Ultrasonics provides single generator power output up to 1000 watts.

For larger tanks and high power applications, multiple generators used in a single tank are synchronized to allow them to work together in unison and to prevent the formation of beat frequencies, which can damage delicate parts.

Specifications
Line Modulated Sine Wave Output Signal The sine wave output frequency is centered on the best frequency for your process, allowing for changes in liquid depth, temperature, surface tension, load variation and other factors. Ensures cleaning consistency and repeatability.
High Sweep Frequency Rate continually changes the output frequency to eliminate standing waves in the tank, enhancing cavitation intensity and cleaning uniformity.
Sweeping Bandwidth for better cleaning efficiency, enhanced cavitation uniformity and faster recovery.

sweepSONIK2D

Available in 40, 72, or 104 kHz single frequency generator models.

Blackstone~NEY Ultrasonics first introduced sweeping frequency digital waveforms to eliminate part damage resulting from resonance at the ultrasonic frequency. The future wave of precision cleaning hardware includes our patented dualSWEEP™ technology, which varies the sweep rate to eliminate the possibility of resonance at the lower sweep frequency. A choice of 40, 72 or 104 kHz center frequency allows optimization of the energy in each cavitation implosion for specific processes and chemistries. The sweepSONIK2D provides the safest, most efficient ultrasonic cleaning today and is available only from Blackstone~NEY Ultrasonics.

Risk Free Cleaning Why take a chance? With dualSWEEPT technology, the sweep rate is constantly changing between optimum values. This eliminates the possibility of damaging a part by resonating it at a single sweep frequency.

Uniform Cavitation with Rapid Degas sweepSONIK™2D generators from Blackstone~NEY Ultrasonics cavitate challenging cleaning chemistries, even difficult hydrocarbon and semi-aqueous solvents, with ease. Digital sweepSONIK technology produces a unique waveform for uniform cavitation throughout the tank and the fastest degassing in the industry. This rapid return to normal operation reduces cleaning time and improves productivity.

High Performance, High Reliability Cleaning sweepSONIK™2D is designed for high performance over a long service life. In fact, its three-year guarantee is one of the best in the industry. All sweepSONIKT2D models are equipped with a variable power control as well as line-voltage and over-temperature indicator lights.

Original Equipment Manufacturers can take advantage of Blackstone-NEY's advanced ultrasonic technology. Provide significantly improved particle removal rates to the sub-micron level for your customers' production process tools. Precision ultrasonic cleaning tanks with electropolished surfaces and coved corners are available. Multiple generators used in a single tank are synchronized to allow them to work together in unison and to prevent the formation of beat frequencies, which can damage delicate parts.
