Bandelin SONOREX K 28 CV insert basket for SUPER RK and DIGITEC DT

Larger batches and a cleaning medium that places greater demands on the standard tank: Bandelin offers the SONOREX SUPER RK 1028 CH for this combination. It combines a welded tank made of 1.4404 stainless steel (AISI 316L) with a heating element that heats the bath to up to 80 °C, with a total capacity of 45 litres and a working capacity of 30 litres. Like the other models in the SUPER-RK series, it is classified as a Class I medical device in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2017/745 and is designed for use in laboratories, medical practices and workshops.Heater and durable bath in a single unitThe heating power is 1,450 watts when operating at 230 volts or 1,400 watts at 115 volts, and the bath temperature can be continuously adjusted between 30 and 80 °C; a dry-run protection feature switches off the heater if the water level is too low. As with the RK 1028 C, the tank is made of welded 1.4404 steel with a thickness of 2.0 mm; compared to the standard tank made of 1.4301, it is generally more resistant to chlorides and more aggressive cleaning agents. At 35 kHz, the unit delivers a peak power of 1,200 watts at a rated power of 300 watts via eight transducer systems, distributed by the automatic SweepTec function to prevent standing waves in the ultrasonic field.Selection guide: with or without heating, which tankAnyone who regularly works with heat and simultaneously requires a more robust tank, for example, for frequent changes of concentrate, will be well served by the RK 1028 CH. If the standard 1.4301 tank is sufficient but a heating element is still required, the RK 1028 H, with a total capacity of 28 litres, is the suitable choice. If heating is not required but a more robust bath is, the RK 1028 C remains the option as an unheated variant with the same bath specifications. For smaller batches, Bandelin offers, amongst others, the RK 514 BH with a capacity of 18.7 litres and the RK 156 BH with a narrow, elongated basin for 9 litres within the SUPER-RK range.Use and maintenanceThe tank is filled to a working capacity of 30 litres; the total volume of 45 litres applies to the tank filled to the brim without a load. According to Bandelin, the RK 1028 CH is fitted with a 50 cm long hose connected to the G 1/2 ball valve on the left-hand side of the unit, which facilitates changing the medium via an external container. The hanging basket and lid are not included in the Scope of delivery; the RK 1028 CH is compatible with baskets K 28 C, K 28 CS, K 28 CA or K 28 CV, together with lids D 1028 C or D 1028 CS. The power cable is 2 metres long and permanently fitted; the unit can be operated at either 230 V or 115 V at 50/60 Hz.Typical applicationsHeated cleaning of large batches of laboratory glassware and instrumentsRemoval of grease and dried-on residues at elevated temperaturesUse with more aggressive cleaning concentrates thanks to the robust tankPreparation and degassing of solvents prior to analytical proceduresFrequently asked questionsHow does the RK 1028 CH differ from the RK 1028 H?Both have a heating element.

Not every cleaning task requires heat; indeed, some cleaning agents and materials do not tolerate it well. The Bandelin SONOREX SUPER RK 1028 C operates without heating and instead features a welded tank made from high-alloy stainless steel 1.4404 (AISI 316L). With a total capacity of 45 litres and a working capacity of 30 litres, this ultrasonic bath is one of the larger models in the SUPER-RK series and, like all units in the range, is classified as a Class I medical device in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2017/745.Robust tank for continuous operation without heatingThe 1.4404 grade is molybdenum-alloyed and is therefore generally more resistant to chlorides and more aggressive cleaning agents than the standard 1.4301 grade, from which the other unheated SUPER-RK models, such as the RK 1040, are manufactured. The tank is welded rather than drawn and has a thickness of 2.0 mm, twice that of the standard RK 1028 H model. On the ultrasonic side, the RK 1028 C delivers a peak power of 2,000 watts and a nominal power of 500 watts at 35 kHz, distributed across ten vibration systems. The SweepTec function operates fully automatically to counter standing waves in the acoustic field, whilst an additional pulse function briefly increases the energy output to tackle more stubborn dirt.Typical applicationsCleaning of larger batches of laboratory glassware, tools and componentsPreparation and degassing of cleaning media prior to analytical processesUse with cleaning concentrates that are more aggressive towards standard stainless steelWorkshop and industrial applications with high throughput and no temperature requirementsThe 1028 series and alternatives in the rangeIf you additionally need heating, the RK 1028 CH with an identical tank offers the heated version with the same tank material. If the standard 1.4301 tank is sufficient, the RK 1028 H with the same volume and heating is the more cost-effective alternative. For smaller batches without heating, Bandelin also offers the RK 510 with a capacity of 9.7 litres and the RK 1040 with a round tank and a capacity of 39.5 litres. In addition to the SONOREX range, we also offer ultrasonic baths from Elma, for example with switchable dual-frequency technology, for applications where a fixed frequency of 35 kHz is insufficient.Use and maintenanceThe tank is filled to a working capacity of 30 litres; the total volume of 45 litres refers to the tank filled to the brim without the items to be cleaned. The ball valve on the drain, specified in the data sheet as G 1/2 inch on the left-hand side of the unit, is used for draining and changing the cleaning medium. The insert basket and lid are not included in the scope of delivery; for the RK 1028 C, the K 28 C or K 28 CS baskets are suitable, with the corresponding lids D 1028 C or D 1028 CS respectively. Cleaning concentrates for the SONOREX series can be purchased separately. The power cable is 2 metres long and permanently attached to the unit; operation is possible with either 230 V or 115 V.Frequently Asked QuestionsWhy does the RK 1028 C not have heating?This is the unheated basic version of the 1028 model; for heated operation with the same tank, there is the sister model RK 1028 CH.What distinguishes the 1.4404 tank from the standard tank?The tank of the RK 1028 C is welded rather than drawn, 2.0 mm thick instead of 1.0 mm, and is made from the molybdenum-alloyed stainless steel 1.4404, which is generally more resistant to chlorides than the standard material 1.4301.How much does the unit weigh when shipped?The net weight of the RK 1028 C is 24.9 kg; when packed in a carton, the weight increases to 28.0 kg.Is the device classified as a medical device?Yes, Bandelin classifies the RK 1028 C as a Class I medical device in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2017/745.Technical detailsTotal capacity / Working capacity45.0 l / 30.0 lInternal dimensions of the tank (L x W x D)500 x 300 x 300 mmExternal dimensions (L x W x H)540 x 340 x 500 mm, excluding handles/ball valve, with feetWeight (net)24.9 kgShipping weight (gross)28.0 kgUltrasonic frequency35 kHzUltrasonic powerPeak power 2,000 W, nominal power 500 W, 10 vibration systemsHeatingNot applicable, unheated modelTimer1 to 15 minutes (±5 %) or continuous operationOperationRotary knobFunctionsSweepTec, pulse functionTank materialStainless steel 1.4404 (AISI 316L), welded, thickness 2.0 mmHousing materialStainless steel 1.4301DrainBall valve G 1/2, left-hand sideMains connection230 V~ (±10 %), 50/60 Hz, optionally 115 V~, 2 m fixed mains lead, protection class ICurrent consumption230 V 2.2 A / 115 V 4.4 ADegree of protectionIP 32Packaging dimensions670 x 470 x 565 mmMedical device classClass I in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2017/745Scope of delivery1x Bandelin SONOREX SUPER RK 1028 C ultrasonic bathPermanently attached mains cable (2 m)Instructions for useThe insert basket (K 28 C or K 28 CS) and lid (D 1028 C or D 1028 CS) are not included in the scope of delivery and are available separately as accessories.Individual requirements and procurement serviceOur procurement service can assist you in finding a suitable insert basket, lid or cleaning concentrates for the SONOREX SUPER RK 1028 C.
