Process for cleaning Electrical components:
Wash: Each part was cleaned individually; the part was placed in the basket then submerged in the tank. All parts had a cycle time of 10 minutes. Rinse: After the wash cycle the parts were then rinsed in a stand alone tank using deionised water with no Sonics for a cycle time of 2 minutes. Drying: Finally the tools were dried with a temperature setting of 60°C for a cycle time of 5 minutes. Comments: Some heavy staining has been removed and the parts brightened. Some staining /etching marks still present which cannot be removed without damaging the parts.
