Ultrasonic Cleaners from Beauty Kit – Effective and Hygienic Cleaning Solutions
Ultrasonic cleaners are indispensable tools for the effective cleaning and disinfection of small instruments and accessories. Beauty Kit offers a wide range of ultrasonic cleaners to help you maintain impeccable hygiene and order at your workstation. These modern devices deliver outstanding results when cleaning a variety of tools and accessories.
Ultrasonic Cleaners – A Powerful Cleaning Solution
Ultrasonic cleaners work by generating high-frequency vibrations that create millions of microscopic bubbles in a specialised cleaning solution. These bubbles penetrate even the smallest surface irregularities, effectively removing dirt and bacteria from intricate components that would be impossible to clean by hand. With Beauty Kit ultrasonic cleaners, you can be confident that your instruments will not only be thoroughly clean but also properly disinfected.

Health and safety requirements for beauty services do not explicitly mandate the use of ultrasonic cleaners for sterilisation. However, the methodological guidelines issued by the National Public Health Centre (NVSC) provide detailed guidance on the use of ultrasonic cleaners for instrument cleaning.
According to these guidelines, ultrasonic cleaners are used as a mechanised pre-cleaning method, helping to effectively remove soiling from hard-to-reach areas of instruments. The high-frequency sound emitted in an ultrasonic cleaner creates vacuum microbubbles that implode and generate fine jets of water capable of penetrating the smallest crevices and thoroughly cleaning complex instrument surfaces.
It is important to note that ultrasonic cleaners are used for cleaning purposes only, not sterilisation. After ultrasonic cleaning, instruments must be further disinfected and sterilised in accordance with applicable requirements.
How to Use an Ultrasonic Cleaner for Instrument Cleaning
Ultrasonic cleaners are an effective solution for thoroughly removing soiling from instrument surfaces and hard-to-reach areas. Although they do not sterilise, this cleaning stage is essential prior to disinfection or hot-air sterilisation.
1. Prepare Your Instruments
- Rinse instruments under running water to remove any visible debris.
- If instruments are heavily soiled, use a brush or a neutral-pH cleaner.
2. Prepare the Ultrasonic Cleaner
- Fill the tank with water and add the appropriate ultrasonic cleaning concentrate according to the manufacturer's instructions.
- Activate the heating function (if available) to bring the solution to the recommended temperature (~40–60 °C).
3. Load the Instruments
- Place instruments in the dedicated basket or holder – they must not rest directly on the bottom of the tank.
- Ensure all instruments are fully submerged in the cleaning solution.
4. The Cleaning Cycle
- Run the ultrasonic cycle for 5–15 minutes, depending on the level of soiling and the power of the unit.
- During the cycle, microbubbles clean even the smallest cavities and grooves.
5. After Cleaning
- Remove instruments, rinse thoroughly with clean water.
- Dry and prepare for subsequent disinfection or hot-air sterilisation.
Note: while ultrasonic cleaners effectively remove soiling from instruments, they do not guarantee complete elimination of microorganisms. A disinfection or sterilisation process must therefore be carried out after cleaning, in accordance with applicable hygiene standards.
Types of Ultrasonic Cleaners: What You Need to Know
When selecting an ultrasonic cleaner for instrument cleaning, it is important to understand the different types and their distinctions, so that your choice meets the needs of your beauty service practice and complies with hygiene regulations.

- Multi-frequency: flexible option for a variety of different cleaning requirements.
4. By Control Type
- Mechanical (analogue): simple manual timer and temperature control.
- Digital: display panel, precise settings, often with pre-set programmes.
5. By Tank Capacity
