Ultrasonic Systems
• Principles of operation
– Ultrasonic waves in a liquid remove deposits
– Typical wave frequency is 28 kHz to 50 kHz
– Imploding bubbles (cavitation) strike surfaces to
create cleaning action
– Detergent allows bubbles to grow faster
– Heat promotes bubble formation and implosion
rate
– Particularly effective on parts with complex
geometries and passages
• Armatures
• Parts with blind holes

Grit Blasting

Water Blasting
• Directs a 15000 to 40000 psi (100 to 275 mPa)
stream of water at parts to be cleaned
– The water can remove:
Dirt Heavy corrosion
Oil Paint – layer by layer
– Aggressive action can be controlled
• Amortisseur bars can be cleaned to bare metal without
harming field coil windings
– Abrasives can be added to make cleaning more aggressive,
e.g. , to:
• Remove scale from pump casings
• Remove wedges and cut through insulation to “cold strip”
windings

• Environmental issues
– Cleaners with no hazardous components
identified on their MSDS are preferred
– Environmental hazards can affect people as well as
the environment, e.g., by inhalation or skin
contact
• Safety concerns
– The lesser the degree of personal protective
equipment (PPE) required the more desirable
– Cleaners that are neutral or only slightly alkaline
are preferred
