Aqueous cleaning systems sometimes are not enough to get the oil from your production parts.

If you stamp, machine, grind, assemble, or in some other way manufacture production parts and cannot get your parts clean enough with alkaline soap and hot water, you finally have an alternative that is safe, effective, economical, and legal.

Advantages of a non aqueous cleaning:

• Low surface tension (typically 25-30 dynes/cm compared with 72 for water) meaning that liquid can enter (and exit) complex geometric parts features such as fine threads and blind holes flushing out contamination.
• Non aqueous solutions can accommodate a wide range of contaminants whereas aqueous detergents are usually “soil specific” and a variety of chemicals may be required to be effective in many manufacturing processes.
• The separate distillation within a hermetically sealed solvent system ensures that both clean solvent and pure vapour are available for each cycle, therefore maintaining consistent results. You always have a fresh bath to wash in.
• The volatility of organic solvents ensures that drying of parts is both rapid and thorough. Just compare the latent heat of evaporation of water at 1 btu/lb with that of organic solvents which is approximately 0.12 btu/lb.
• Applying vacuum to the treatment chamber reduces the boiling point of solvent and assures completely dry parts every time.
