What is PD IEC TS 63001- Cavitation noise in ultrasonic baths and ultrasonic reactors about?
PD IEC TS 63001 is a safety standard on ultrasonic baths and ultrasonic reactors.
PD IEC TS 63001 is a technical specification, that provides a technique of measurement and evaluation of ultrasound in liquids for use in cleaning devices and equipment.
PD IEC TS 63001 specifies
- The cavitation measurement at 2,25 f0 in the frequency range 20 kHz to 150 kHz
- The cavitation measurement by extraction of broadband spectral components in the frequency range 10 kHz to 5 MHz
PD IEC TS 63001 covers the measurement and evaluation of the cavitation, but not its secondary effects (cleaning results, sonochemical effects, etc.).
Who is PD IEC TS 63001 - Cavitation noise in ultrasonic baths and ultrasonic reactors for?
PD IEC TS 63001 on the measurement of cavitation noise in ultrasonic baths and ultrasonic reactors is relevant to:
- Manufacturers and suppliers of hydrophone
- Chemical engineers, mechanical engineers, and biomedical engineers
- Physical laboratories
Why should you use PD IEC TS 63001 - Cavitation noise in ultrasonic baths and ultrasonic reactors?
Ultrasonically induced cavitation is used frequently for immersion cleaning in liquids.
PD IEC TS 63001 assists the user with two general classes of ultrasonically induced cavitation, which are transient cavitation and stable cavitation. PD IEC TS 63001 provides techniques to measure and evaluate the degree of cavitation in support of validation efforts for ultrasonic cleaning tanks and cleaning equipment, as used, for example, for the purposes of industrial process control or for hospital sterilization. PD IEC TS 63001 also assists with hydrophones. A hydrophone is a device that produces an output voltage waveform in response to an acoustic wave.
Overall, PD IEC TS 63001 is helpful as it provides guidance on the measurements made for purposes of comparison between two different cleaning environments or various locations within a cleaning environment, such that the end-of-cable loaded sensitivity of the hydrophone may be assumed to be identical in both cases.
