The RK 1028: a powerful ultrasonic bath for optimal, professional cleaning
The Bandelin RK 1028 ultrasonic bath is a high-end cleaning solution for demanding environments such as research laboratories, medical facilities and industrial maintenance workshops. This model is part of Bandelin's SONOREX SUPER series, renowned for its robustness and exceptional performance. With its large 19-litre tank volume and 300 watts of ultrasonic power in nominal operation (reaching 1200 W in peak power), the RK 1028 guarantees unrivalled cleaning efficiency, even for complex shapes or stubborn impurities.
This device is based on the principle of ultrasonic cavitation, produced by piezoelectric transducers fixed under the vibrating tank. The emission of low-frequency ultrasound causes microbubbles to form in the sonication liquid, which then implode to generate powerful microcurrents that detach dirt particles from the immersed surfaces. This process is enhanced by the exclusive SweepTec® technology, which allows the ultrasonic frequency to be slightly modulated to ensure even distribution of acoustic energy throughout the tank. This guarantees consistent results across the entire surface and prevents dead spots.
The RK 1028 is ideal for indirect and direct cleaning of various objects, from medical instruments to industrial metal parts. It also allows rapid degassing of liquids, emulsification, homogenisation and sample preparation for analysis. The device consists of a stainless steel tank with a G ½ drain valve, a robust housing and non-slip feet for stability.
This model is easy to use thanks to its mechanical controls: a dial for setting the sonication time (with continuous operation option) and an indicator light showing when the ultrasound is activated. It is compatible with a wide range of accessories to optimise cleaning depending on the objects to be treated, including baskets, insert trays, instrument holders and fixing devices for sensitive items.
The RK 1028 is a reliable device, certified to ISO 9001 and ISO 13485, compliant with European standards (MDR 2017/745, RoHS, EMC, etc.), and designed for maximum safety: overheating protection, splash prevention, compatibility with biodegradable agents and automatic standby after the cycle.
This ultrasonic bath is the ideal solution for anyone looking for intensive, controlled and material-friendly cleaning with great flexibility of use.
