The safety sensor allows opening of the working chamber only if no solvent is in the chamber

Looking into the working chamber, loaded with two buckets, with clamping device in horizontal position.

Bucket in "tilting" position. Tilt range is programmable.

Baskets. The baskets slide on rollers into the working chamber. Their mesh depends on the size of the parts being cleaned. A screen cover closes the baskets in the working chamber. Baskets with height-adjustable covers are available for pieces that may be damaged by rotation. The cleaning basket can be rotated during the cleaning or tilted to either side at any desired angle. The bucket holder in the working chamber can be adjusted to the dimensions of the basket.
Screen basket Simple opening of the cover by the operator.	Grating basket with drop handles, outfitted with round basket inserts	Grating basket with plastic coated "middle layer" for the cleaning of sensitive work pieces.
Grating basket, outfitted for the mounting of coding strips.	Typical assortment of work pieces, sent for cleaning tests to the PERO Corporation.

The control of the PERO automatic cleaning machines Thanks to decades of experience in the design of cleaning equipment, PERO offers the user a control program that is unrivalled. The software includes: The operating program The machine diagnostic program The wash programs. The operating program controls the processes and functions of the equipment, while the diagnostic program constantly checks whether the equipment is running properly. Thus, the diagnostic program is especially valuable, since it substantially reduces the service time and thus assures very high uptime of the equipment. Finally, the wash programs simplify the operation, since the user does not have to set up his own program. The PERO control offers the following possibilities and advantages: 20 permanent programs for process cycles and movement of the washed goods selectable tilt range from 10° to 90° selectable drying times selectable process times (full immersion baths with flooding and/or ultrasonic programs) clear text display, indicating possible error sources indication of the necessary maintenance schedule temperature indication for the heating and drying unit optional basket code system manual operation during maintenance work automatic resetting of the controls to the starting position manual control for maintenance and troubleshooting analysis, with checking for operating errors

SPECIAL EQUIPMENT

Extensive array of accessories for the highest demands PERO automatic cleaning machines, even with their standard equipment, can handle all ordinary applications in cleaning technology. For special applications and tailor-made integration in existing process layouts, PERO offers many special accessories adapted to the units: Rust prevention unit For rust prevention of work pieces made of steel or cast steel using the immersion method. Rinse unit V2 This second wash cycle is used to rinse the washed goods with clear solvent. It is used to achieve complete elimination of grease in cases of extreme soiling, e.g., thin-wall pieces. The solvent is distilled, ultra-filtered, and returned to the unit. The rinse process can be further intensified ultrasonically. Digital programmable weekly timer With LCD, 100 hour operating reserve, 180 programmable storage locations for 7 days. Switching times from 1 minute to 24 hours per day. Winter and summer time setting, as well as holiday program. Can switch from manual to automatic operation. Ultrasonic unit For intense removal of polishing or lapping paste, flakes and dust. Can be used in the prewash and/or rinse. Comes with power monitor and optical display. Roller conveyor table Used by the operator to move a basket into and out of the machine. Roller conveyor For manual loading. The length of 9 ft. 10 in. offers sufficient buffering for the baskets. Automatic loader Baskets of the same size are automatically fed, separated and loaded in the working chamber, and transported to the side through a friction roller conveyor after cleaning. The standard equipment provides space for four baskets on the entry and exit sides. Extensions are possible.

Responsibility for the environment Automatic cleaning machines that work with solvents demand great responsibility from the manufacturer with respect to the people who will operate them and the environment. PERO has come to terms with this responsibility and created an especially environment friendly layout. This is shown, for example, by the PERO environmental protection system "PUS" for recovery of solvent by deep freezing of the circulating air and vented air. In connection with a filter cartridge, the slight residual solvent content is removed from the vented air. The concentration in the vented air is less than 20 mg/m3. Constant metering makes sure that the goods can only be removed from the working chamber if the concentration of solvent in the unloading area is less than 1 g/m3. A central solvent pumping unit and a filter drying unit make sure that residues containing solvent are removed in self-contained systems or only after drying (chips). Protection of ground water is also important. Thus, PERO units have a floor pan which prevents solvent from seeping into the ground. The forced drying of the work pieces also ensures that the parts, if placed on the ground, are dry and therefore no solvent fumes seep into the floor In order to prevent solvent from escaping from the working chamber, a sensor makes sure that the working chamber is free of solvent before opening the lid for basket change.
