Angstrom Automated Passivation System

• Angstrom-6:  Single cleaning tank, single rinse tank, single passivation tanks (citric or nitric) dual final rinse tanks, and a single drying tank
• Angstrom-7:  Single cleaning tank, single rinse tank, dual passivation tanks (citric & nitric) dual final rinse tanks, and a single drying tank
• Angstrom-9:  Single cleaning tank, single rinsing tank, dual-position dual passivation tanks (citric & nitric) dual final rinse tanks, and a single drying tank.  Provides nearly double the output of the Saturn-7

• 304 polished stainless steel tubular framing.
• 316L stainless steel tanks & seamless tabletop.
• Stainless filter housings & filter pumps on ultrasonic cleaning tank and rinsing tanks.
• CROSSFIRE Multiple Frequency Ultrasonics (US patent 5,865,199 and 6,019,852) for the ultimate in cleaning performance.
• Able to process baskets in both passivation fluids simultaneously.
• Able to rough clean/rinse/dry parts, zero residue clean/rinse/dry parts, or zero-residue clean/passivate/dry parts in either passivation tank.
• Ultrasonic power intensity controls.
• Cascading rinse tanks to conserve water and ensure best results.
• High-volume high-efficiency drying system.
• High-speed immersion heating systems with digital controllers.
• Closed-cell fluoride/chloride-free insulation.
• NEMA4X control enclosures
• 316L easy-access external latching panels.
• Internal components easily accessed from the front of the system.
• Industrial-grade controls, no membrane switches.
• Stainless steel automated covers.
• Color touchscreen HMI & PLC control system with 10 recipes of operation and remote access capable.

Can be equipped with the following automation options

• TRANSTAR II Overhead Robotic System:  Traditional overhead system which engages baskets with hooks, transferring by lifting and lowering baskets into tanks but with acid-compatible design which eliminates contact between acid fumes or liquids and automation components

• Multi-position Load & Unload Conveyors for Automation.
• Process Area Enclosures with Exhaust Systems.
• Automatic Liquid Level Maintenance & Filling Systems.
• Detergent Injection.
• Ultrasonic Frequency Selection (with CROSSFIRE ultrasonic system only).
• High-head Pump Drain Systems.
• Rinse Overflow Capture Tanks & Automatic Drain Systems (upgrade to the pump drain option).
• Automatic Rinse Water Quality Maintenance:  Keeps parts in final rinse until acceptable water quality is obtained.
• Water Purification & Deionization Systems for zero residue cleaning/passivation results.
• Surface Skimming to prevent re-deposition of contaminants onto parts when removed from the tank.
• Dual-draw Filtration Systems.
• Anti-erosion Ultrasonic Coatings to extend transducer life.
• Side-mounted Ultrasonic Output.
• Casters for easy relocation.
• HEPA-filtered Drying Tanks.
• Air-knife Blow-off Systems for Drying Tanks.
• Customized tank sizes at no additional cost for engineering.

To determine a part number, first select the type of system preferred (Angstrom-7 or Angstrom-9) followed by the tank size designation For example, Angstrom-7-2000 is the part number for a 7 tank system with basket size of 12″ x 20″ x 14″ tall, and a format of 1 cleaning tank, 1 rinsing tank, dual passivation tanks, dual final rinse tanks, and a single drying tank.
