Best Built 1/2 Gallon Pro Ultrasonic 220V - Money Saving Kit

The Best Built SD-180HT is a professional-grade, 1/2 gallon ultrasonic cleaner engineered for the demands of busy jewelry shops. After rigorous side-by-side testing using the aluminum foil method, the Best Built line proved to be the most powerful ultrasonic Otto Frei has ever tested — outperforming comparable units with noticeably greater cavitation force. That means faster, more complete removal of greasy polishing compounds from even the hardest-to-reach recesses of finished jewelry. This is the 220V export version, designed for countries where 220V is standard or for shops equipped with 220V service. It ships as a money-saving kit that includes four popular accessories.

Specifications

What's Included

• Best Built SD-180HT 1/2 Gallon Ultrasonic Cleaner (220V) with heater, timer, and stainless steel lid
• 123.609 – Stainless Steel Basket
• 123.627 – Stainless Steel Single Rack

Notes

• Do not operate in continuous mode. Ninety-five percent of cleaning occurs within the first 30 seconds; extended exposure can damage items.
• Do not place items directly on the tank bottom — always use a basket. Items placed on the tank bottom can damage the transducer and will void the warranty.
• Always keep the solution at least 3/4 full; ultrasonics perform best at approximately 7/8 capacity.
• Use only non-ammoniated, non-flammable ultrasonic cleaning solution. Pre-mix concentrates before adding to the tank. Warm solution provides best results.
• Allow the unit to run (degas) for a few minutes before placing items in the tank for optimal cleaning performance.
• Gold, silver, platinum, diamonds, rubies, sapphires, amethyst, and citrine are generally safe for ultrasonic cleaning.
• Soft, porous, or heavily included stones — including emeralds, opals, turquoise, pearls, amber, and ivory — may be damaged by ultrasonic cleaning.
• Ultrasonics do not remove tarnish.
• Do not submerge watches. If cleaning a metal watchband, use a holder to keep the watch head above the waterline and never clean non-waterproofed watches.
