CliniEco Dental Ultrasonic Cleaner — CD-4862, 6 L with 5-Preset Heating and Timer

Quick answer: A 6 L tank — cassette size — with five fixed temperature presets between 40 °C and 60 °C and a full-range 1 to 30 minute timer, so the cycle is written down rather than guessed.

The 6 L class is the size at which a standard dental instrument cassette fits in one cycle, and this is the unit in the range that treats temperature as a fixed setting rather than a dial. Five presets — 40, 45, 50, 55 and 60 °C — plus a timer that runs the whole 1 to 30 minute range, and a three-colour LED display that shows the set-point while the cycle runs. Tank opening is 32.5 × 20.4 × 9.9 cm, which takes an instrument up to 34 cm long.

Scope of use. This is a cleaning device. It removes soil — cement residue, polishing paste, dried blood in hinges and threads — as a step in instrument reprocessing. It makes no microbicidal claim, and it does not replace any later step in the workflow set out in the instrument manufacturer’s instructions for use. The Health Canada guidance on reprocessing information is why the instrument manufacturer’s instructions — not the cleaner’s specification sheet — decide what happens to a given instrument after it comes out of the tank.

What are the CD-4862 specifications?

The presets are the operational difference between this unit and a tank with a rotary thermostat: the number you set is the number you record.

Which tank size in the range fits your room?

Two 6 L units sit in this range and they are not the same product. This one fixes the temperature in 5 °C steps and runs 35 kHz; the CS6.2 runs 32 and 48 kHz on one generator. If your protocol names a temperature, the preset ladder is the easier machine to audit.

The length limit is worth measuring before you buy. A 34 cm working length covers most hand instruments and many extraction forceps; anything longer belongs in a 20 L tank where the chamber is 42 cm long.

How do you run a repeatable cleaning cycle on the CD-4862?

This unit is built for the practice whose protocol already names a temperature. The presets exist so the number in the protocol and the number on the panel are the same number.

Keep the solution inside the temperature window printed on its label rather than at the highest preset. Hotter is not cleaner: above the solution manufacturer's range, the enzymes lose activity and the tank starts to leave a film on stainless.

What an infection-control inspection asks for is the record, not the machine. Ontario’s provincial reprocessing guidance asks for documentation and maintenance of records for each component of the cleaning, disinfection and/or sterilization process, based on the manufacturer’s recommendations, and repeats that records must be retained according to the facility’s policy (Public Health Ontario, “Best Practices for Cleaning, Disinfection and Sterilization of Medical Equipment/Devices In All Health Care Settings”, 3rd edition, checked 2026-11-07). A unit with a drain valve, a visible timer and a stable temperature set-point is what makes that record short enough to write at the end of a shift.

What does the cETL mark cover, and what does it not?

This unit is covered by a separate Intertek report from the CS range — 210716104GZU-001 rather than 220112139GZU-001 — which is worth knowing when a technician asks which family the certificate names. The mark on the unit is an ETL mark issued by Intertek, tested against UL 73 and CSA C22.2 No. 68. It is an electrical safety certificate. It is not a UL listing and it is not CSA certification, and it says nothing about how well the tank cleans. Canadian reprocessing practice sits on a separate standard, CSA Z314:23, whose scope puts documentation inside the reprocessing quality system rather than inside the appliance.

What is in the box, and what should be ordered with it?

One cleaner, 6 L, 110 V with a North American plug and the manufacturer warranty. The stainless basket is an accessory. The power cord detaches, which matters in a room where the bench is wiped down between sessions.

Multi-enzyme ultrasonic cleaning solution is what goes in the tank, sold as a 1 L bottle or a 5 L pail and diluted 1:400 to 1:600. The 6 L CS6.2 is the unit to look at if your load grows into full cassettes. Read how to choose a tank size and what to record on the cleaning log before you commit to a size.
