UIP4000 – High Ultrasonic Output Power
The UIP4000 (4,000 watts, 20kHz) is used mainly for the industrial processing of liquids such as homogenizing, dispersing, disintegrating or deagglomerating.
The powerful ultrasonic processor UIP4000 is used when high power is needed for continuous operation. It is controlled by a microprocessor and equipped with an LCD status display as well as with an interface for external control signals.
This high-power system is particularly favorable, since no additional cooling media, such as water or compressed air, are necessary. The special design of this system allows for its use under extreme operation conditions, such as dust, dirt, temperature and humidity. The ultrasonic processor consists of titanium and stainless steel 1.4301 (other stainless steel types are available on request). The oscillation-free flange has proven very useful for the integration into machines and plants. It has been adapted to the new technical conditions in terms of correct oscillation-behavior.
The modular concept of the UIP4000 provides you with a powerful and yet very space-saving system. The transducer and generator are housed separately from each other and are connected via cables. The self-contained design reduces the work required for installation, operation and maintenance to a minimum level. Multiple UIP4000 modules can be easily combined to form more powerful clusters.

In general, the flow cell as well as the ultrasonic transducer are located in a double-walled stainless steel cabinet that comes with a very effective sound insulation. If required, the UIP4000 can be used for the sonication of liquids in custom-specific reactors. Of course, UIP4000 is steady state proof (24hrs/7days) like all ultrasonic systems from Hielscher Ultrasonics.
