SOLVENT CLEANING & VAPOR DEGREASING
Liquid vapor degreasing with solvent has been an accepted method of precision cleaning for over 50 years. It incorporates washing, rinsing, drying, and solvent reclamation in compact, cost-effective unit. This alone makes it a very attractive process for many production cleaning applications.
Degreasing and the Environment
Environmental concerns raised in the last decade have changed both the chemistry and hardware technology for degreasing. Solvents have been modified or replaced to eliminate ozone depletion potential and other hazards. Equipment designs and operating processes have been totally re-engineered to reduce solvent losses to near zero. All Branson solvent degreasers meet NESHAP regulations, Environmental Protection Agency directives, and other applicable regulations.
There are many benefits provided by solvent degreasing. Key among these are:
* No process chemistry to mix or maintain
* Solvent is reclaimed automatically in the unit - no significant waste stream
* Few process variables to be managed
* Very easy and cost effective to automate
* Results are not operator dependent
* Cost effective to purchase and operate
* Typically smaller footprint
Perhaps the most attractive aspect of liquid vapor degreasing as a cleaning technology is the simplicity of the process itself:
* Parts are placed in a basket or carrier
* They are moved into the vapor zone (A) for pre-cleaning with hot vapors
* Then parts are transferred to the precision cleaning sump (B) for ultrasonic cleaning
* Parts cooled in the cleaning sump are returned to the hot vapor zone (A) for final rinsing
* A final stop in the freeboard area (C) allows any residual solvent vapors to return to the vapor zone
Branson's full line of precision ultrasonic vapor degreasers have been designed to operate with a broad range of commercially available solvents. This includes many of the traditional materials like methylene chloride, trichlorethylene, and perchloroethylene. They are also suitable for use with newer solvents like HCFC, HFC, HFE, n-propyl bromide, and others.
The Branson B Series Ultrasonic Vapor Degreasers are the latest in a series of environmentally sound, cost effective precision degreasers. Branson, well known for ultrasonics, is also the global leader in solvent cleaning technology. The B Series integrates over 50 years of degreasing experience with the demanding needs of a changing marketplace to offer you a functional solvent solution to your cleaning needs. Similar in operation to traditional two sump units, they incorporate all of the important environmental and safety features you need, including onboard compressors for both primary and sub-zero cooling and high-frequency ultrasonics. All controls are clustered on compact, front-mounted, digital control panels. The B Series is ideal for use with most commercially available vapor degreasing solvents.
Freeboard ratio of greater than 120% to eliminate diffusion losses
Refrigerated primary condensing coil to condense the bulk of the solvent vapors
Refrigerated sub-zero freeboard condenser to provide a cold air barrier, minimizing fugitive losses
Sliding cover to eliminate drafts and minimize evaporation during periods of inactivity
Offset boiling sump with liquid level control (except on B452R)
Bag filter to reduce solvent loss during routine maintenance
Internal water separator to reduce losses
Stainless plumbing for solvent-wetted areas In addition to the benefits associated with minimizing solvent losses, the B Series degreasers have many other features which contribute to safety and reliability. Key among these are:
Low voltage controls for operator safety
"Ready" light indicates to operator that it is safe to process parts
Coolant indicator confirms that the refrigeration system is operating
High vapor level sensor to prevent accidental solvent boil off
Heater Over Temp sensor to prevent solvent degradation and heater damage
Early warning contamination indicator to signal the need for solvent replacement
Temperature control of ultrasonic sump (except on B452R)
Lift-off skirt panels to facilitate maintenance
