The Contamination Problem

What we remove in electronics & telecoms

Flux residues

Rosin and no-clean residues that trap moisture and create leakage paths.

Dust & particulate films

Conductive contamination across boards and RF hardware.

Corrosion products

On connectors and contacts in humid and coastal service.

Conformal coating prep

Residues that undermine coating adhesion.

Oxides on contacts

Rising resistance in connector systems.

Dust, oxide and film gone from every backplane pin and edge connector, no ESD-risk abrasion, no re-work. *— click to enlarge*

The endpoint is a defined, repeatable process condition — cycle time, chemistry, concentration, frequency and temperature are recorded parameters, not operator judgement.

Components We Clean

Real parts, real materials

PCB assemblies

Post-solder flux removal and pre-coating cleanliness — at frequencies and powers proven safe for the assembly.

Post-reflowPre-coatRework

Connectors & RF

Connector bodies, waveguide components, antenna hardware — restored contact and RF performance.

ConnectorsWaveguidesFilters

Field-return refurbishment

Radio units, enclosures hardware and site-recovered equipment brought back to service standard.

Why Ultrasonics — And Why These Machines

Cavitation cleans geometry it cannot see

Bubble collapse at the liquid–metal boundary lifts contamination from passages, galleries and cavities without anything touching the surface. Nothing abrades, nothing embeds, no metal is removed.

GeneratorResonance held all shift

The VarioSonic G5 tracks the transducer array as temperature and load shift — conversion efficiency up to 95%.

Sound fieldSweep modulation

Eliminates standing-wave hot and cold zones across a loaded basket.

Process controlLogged, recipe-driven cycles

Stored recipes and logged cycles — audit evidence produced as a by-product of running.

Bath conditionFiltration & oil separation

Multi-stage filtration and weir oil capture hold results steady as the bath loads.

SupportOver-the-air diagnostics

Most faults identified — many resolved — without a site visit.

ConstructionBuilt to work hard

Heavy 316 stainless tanks, tested before despatch, every wearing part replaceable.

Equipment Fit

The machine follows the process

From manually loaded single-tank units to automated lines — and engineered systems where the catalogue ends.

Powersonic

Bench units for board-level work.

MSX

Higher-frequency platforms for assemblies and RF hardware.

Chemistry

Matched to the soil and the substrate

Electronics cleaning runs higher frequencies, controlled power and low-residue chemistry with clean rinsing and drying — the parameter set is proven on sacrificial assemblies first.

Prove it on your parts

Where an application needs validation, we clean sample components in our laboratory, document the result, and specify the machine around the verified process. If ultrasonics is the wrong answer, the trial shows that too, and we will tell you.

FAQ

What electronics engineers ask us

Is ultrasonic cleaning safe for populated boards?

With appropriate frequency, power and fixturing, yes — proven on sacrificial assemblies before production. Some components require exclusion; the trial identifies them.

Does it remove no-clean flux?

Yes with matched chemistry — 'no-clean' means low-residue, not no-residue, and coating adhesion often demands its removal.

What about ESD?

Process and handling are specified ESD-safe end to end.

Can field-return radio units be refurbished?

Enclosure and hardware cleaning restores far more units than replacement assumes — the trial tells you the recovery rate.
