All circuit boards are required to be cleaned to solve faults. As dust and moisture are hidden enemies of all electronics i.e printed circuit boards (PCBs), it is the first step to remove all dust, dirt and guest particles. For simple cleaning, all repair professionals first try with isopropyl alcohol (IPA) or a circuit cleaner and a brush. If the problem is solved, we do not need to proceed further. But if it is not solved, then we need to go through the procedure of ultrasonic cleaning.

What does ultrasonic cleaner machine actually do?

It is a cleaning device that uses ultrasound which is between 20 to 400 KHz. The items are cleaned with the help of any liquid or a mild soap solution which is poured into the machine. The cleaning procedure takes usually between 3 to 6 minutes. Other than PCBs, many items like jewellery, surgical instruments, optical parts, coins and watch parts are also cleaned using this technology.
