Why Elmasolvex VA

Elmasolvex VA is a compact, completely automated solvent cleaning system for very small precision parts.

Explosion-proof certified

NRTL safety-certified for use with solvents with flashpoint ≧12℃.

Controlled vapor discharge

Solvent vapors are extracted via exhaust tubes or absorbed in optional activated carbon unit.

Programmable cycles

Comes with predefined standard cleaning programs. Additional programs are freely definable by the user. Set time, ultrasonic frequency, and rotation/oscillation speed for repeatable 4-stage cleaning and rinsing sequences.

Vacuum aids cleaning, rinsing, and drying

Cleaning with vacuum technology enables the solvent to access otherwise not accessible areas of geometrically complicated parts.

Solvent filtration

Solvent is filtered when transferred from media tank to cleaning chamber. This prevents particulates from contaminating the cleaning chamber enhancing cleaning performance and extending useful lifetime of solvent.

Tabletop footprint

Fits labs and service benches that need solvent cleaning for very small parts.

How it Works

1) Fill tanksFill the 4 media tanks with cleaning and rinsing solutions.
2) Load basketPlace parts in the basket and load into the cleaning chamber. Close the chamber.
3) Program the cycleSelect a standard program or define a custom program for agitation, timing, and drying steps to match your parts and soil.
4) Run the programPress Start. The remaining cleaning time is displayed. An ascending tone signals the end of the sequence.

Best For

Watch and micro-machined precision parts

Fine mechanisms that need ultrasonic solvent cleaning. Wide range of parts holders available.

Medical and optics assemblies

Delicate components that require controlled solvent handling.

Validation-heavy workflows

Documented cycles, filtration, and repeatable recipes for regulated environments.

FAQs

What makes Elmasolvex VA explosion-proof?

The cleaning is performed under vacuum; without oxygen the solvent vapor cannot ignite. The unit uses sealed chambers, safety interlocks, rated controls, and vapor extraction for further protection.

Is it for production or lab use?

Best for labs, service benches, and small-batch production that need validated solvent cleaning in a compact unit.

Can it filter and reuse solvent?

Yes. Built-in filtration helps extend solvent life; follow your change-out schedule for compliance.

What parts fit well?

Small precision parts such as watch components, optics components, connectors, and medical device subassemblies.

Do I still need ventilation?

Ventilation is needed for filling and emptying the media tanks. Operation of the unit does not need ventilation because it discharges solvent vapor directly to an exhaust system or to the outside. Use per your EHS plan.

What solvents can be used in the Elmasolvex VA?

Cleaning media must have a flashpoint ≧12℃. Rinsing media must have a boiling point not exceeding 170℃ for successful drying. Examples of solvents acceptable for cleaning and rinsing include aliphatic C8-C11 hydrocarbons and C3 or higher alkyl compounds. Ethers should not be used. Special solvent formulations are available for optimized cleaning.
