Ultrasonic Dental Cleaner CS6.2 — 6 L Benchtop, Dual-Frequency 32/48kHz, for Instrument Cassettes | CliniEco Medical

The cleaner that takes a full instrument cassette

Most benchtop ultrasonic cleaners sold online are built for jewellery, glasses and dentures. They are small, they are cheap, and they cannot take a standard dental instrument cassette — which means someone at your practice ends up running them in loose batches, twice.

If you are looking for an ultrasonic dental cleaner that takes a full cassette, the CS6.2 is the 6 L class answer: it is a dental ultrasonic cleaner built for dental instrument reprocessing, not for jewellery, glasses or retainers. It is also the ultrasonic cleaner for dental instruments that clinics ask for when their old unit was sized for a countertop, not for a cassette.

The CS6.2 is a 6 L class unit. That is the size at which a full cassette fits in one cycle, which is the whole point of having a cleaner on the bench.

cETL certified by Intertek to CSA C22.2 No. 68 and UL 73. CliniEco Medical is a Canadian importer based in Toronto — ask us for the current lead time.

Already running an ultrasonic bath and reordering solution?

If you are buying cleaning solution by the jug, there is already a tank on your bench. The question is no longer whether to run an ultrasonic bath — it is whether that tank is the right size and the right frequency for the load going into it.

• A 6 L class tank. A full instrument cassette fits in a single cycle, so the same load does not get run twice.
• Dual frequency, 32 kHz and 48 kHz. 32 kHz for heavier soils, 48 kHz for fine crevices — one unit covers the whole load instead of making you pick one.
• Heat, timer and basket included. Ceramic heaters take the solution to 40–60 °C, the digital timer runs to 30 minutes with a 120 s degas cycle, and the SB01 stainless basket ships with the unit.

Solution is a running cost that keeps coming back. The unit is a one-time purchase that decides how well that solution works — and if the tank on your bench is the wrong size or the wrong frequency for your cassette, replacing it is the more practical path than working around it.

Add the CS6.2 to your cart above, or send us your cassette count and we will tell you whether 6 L is the right size for your room.

What does the CS6.2 cost, and what comes with the unit at that price?

The cleaner is a single SKU at $699.00, basket included. That basket is part SB01 and can be re-ordered on its own once it wears, so a replacement does not mean a new machine. At the listed figure you get the 6 L tank, the dual-frequency generator, two ceramic heaters and the digital timer; nothing in the table below is an add-on. Consumables sit outside that price: the enzyme cleaning solution is what goes in the tank, sold by the 4 L container.

Will a 6 L tank take a full instrument cassette?

Yes, and that is the size break the CS6.2 is built around. Tank dimensions are 31.1 × 17.2 × 11.6 cm, the footprint a standard dental cassette needs; under 3 L you are either unpacking instruments or running two cycles. Above 6 L the units are bought for several cassettes and longer runs, and they cost two to three times more, which is why a single-surgery practice rarely needs one. Instruments go in the basket or the cassette — never piled on the tank floor, because metal resting on metal blocks the cavitation underneath.

Does a benchtop ultrasonic cleaner sterilise instruments, or only clean them?

It cleans, and it does not sterilise. An ultrasonic cycle lifts soil — cement residue, polishing paste, dried blood from hinges — and that step comes before pouching and the autoclave, never in place of it. The 32 kHz setting drives larger bubbles for heavier soil, 48 kHz drives smaller ones into lumens and threaded joints, and the 120-second degas cycle at the start is what keeps the first load of the day behaving like the fourth. What the unit does carry is electrical certification: cETL by Intertek to CSA C22.2 No. 68 and UL 73.

Cleaning records for the reprocessing room print from the compliance log centre, and the log generator on that page fills the date row for each station; fitting a new unit into an existing workflow is the kind of question the sterilization compliance consultation answers. This cleaner is imported into Canada by CliniEco Medical, MDEL #35334.

Why the 6 L class is the one that matters

Instrument cassettes are the standard way dental practices sterilise. If your cleaner cannot take the cassette, you are either unpacking instruments to clean them or running two cycles, and both cost you time every single day.

Tank capacity	What fits	Who it suits
Under 3 L	Handpieces, retainers, loupes	Front desk, ortho, solo
6 L (this unit)	A full instrument cassette	General practice, hygiene
8 L and up	Multiple cassettes, larger runs	High-volume, labs

This is one of the two sizes Canadian dental practices buy most. The larger units in this range cost two to three times more, which is why most single-surgery practices stay in this class.

What the dual frequency actually does for you

Cavitation behaves differently at different frequencies, and this is not a marketing line — it is physics.

• 32 kHz — larger, more energetic bubbles. Better at lifting heavier soils: cement residue, polishing paste, dried blood on hinged instruments.

• 48 kHz — smaller, denser bubbles. Gentler, and it reaches into fine crevices, lumens and threaded joints without the erosion risk that aggressive low-frequency cavitation can cause on plated instruments.

Running both means one machine covers the whole load rather than forcing you to choose between "heavy soil" and "delicate instrument".

Degassing matters more than people expect. Freshly filled tap water is saturated with dissolved air, and dissolved air absorbs the energy that should be forming cavitation bubbles. A 120-second degas cycle at the start is why the first load of the day performs like the fourth.

In use

1. Fill to the marked level, add the cleaning solution, and run the 120 s degas cycle.

2. Heat to 40–60 °C (selectable). Warm solution measurably improves soil removal.

3. Load — instruments in the basket or cassette, not piled on the tank floor. Cavitation is blocked by contact surfaces.

4. Run the cycle, then rinse and inspect before sterilisation.

5. Empty and dry the tank. Leaving solution in overnight is what shortens the life of the transducer plate.

Consumables that go with it

Ultrasonic cleaning is a consumable line, not a one-off purchase.

• Enzymatic ultrasonic cleaning solution — 4 L concentrate. The right chemistry does more work than a longer cycle.

• Sterilisation pouches, indicator tape and biological indicators — for the steps after the cleaner.

(We also supply the consumables above. Bundling them with the unit is how most practices run it.)

Questions about whether this is the right size for your practice — tell us how many cassettes you run per day and we will tell you straight, even if the answer is that you do not need this one.

Straight answers — including the things you may not want to hear

Most listings in this category skip the awkward parts. We do not, because the awkward parts are usually what decides the purchase.

What this unit will not do.

• It will not clean aluminium or anodised instruments. No ultrasonic cleaner will. Anodised coatings and bare aluminium are attacked by the cavitation and by alkaline cleaning solutions. If you use aluminium trays or anodised cassettes, do not put them in any ultrasonic bath. This refers to what you place in the bath — the unit's own housing is aluminium alloy and sits outside the tank, so it is never immersed.

• It will not clean the inside of a narrow lumen on its own. Ultrasonic energy does not travel well down a small-diameter channel. Lumens and hinges need a brush as well — this is true of every unit at every price.

• It does not replace gross decontamination. Heavy debris should be wiped or rinsed off first. Solution life and cleaning performance both drop if you do not.

• It does not sterilise. This is a cleaner. Sterilisation is a separate step, in a separate machine.

What we can state plainly, that others often will not.

• The tank holds 6 litres, and it measures 31.1 × 17.2 × 11.6 cm. Take a tape measure to your cassette before you buy. We would rather you check and not order than order and be disappointed.

• The capacity figure is the real tank volume, not a model number. The model is CS6.2. The tank is 6 litres.

• The electrical certification is cETL, to CSA C22.2 No. 68 and UL 73, issued by Intertek. We name the standard and the issuer so you can verify it. A product that says only "FCC, CE and RoHS" is telling you it holds no North American electrical safety certification — those three are emissions and materials marks, not safety marks, and a unit without an NRTL mark has no business being installed in a commercial setting.

• We are the importer of record. Ecology Source New Energy Technology Co., LTD. o/a CliniEco Medical, Health Canada MDEL #35334. That is on the label and on the paperwork, and it is who you hold responsible.

• It is not a no-name import. The unit is built by a manufacturer that also produces cleaners for established North American dental brands, and it ships with the manufacturer's own nameplate.

• If it is the wrong size for you, we will say so. Tell us how many cassettes you run per day and what instruments you put through them, and we will answer honestly — including when the honest answer is that you need a larger tank or a different machine.

Choosing the right option for your clinic

Before you order, the decisions that actually change the result are tank size against instrument load, what 32/48 kHz dual frequency changes, and how to document proof of clean. The full buyer's guide covers them step by step: Ultrasonic Cleaner for a Canadian Clinic: Tank, Frequency and Proof of Clean.

How many instrument cassettes can one 6 L tank get through in a day?

One cassette per cycle, because that is what the tank is sized for: 31.1 × 17.2 × 11.6 cm takes a full dental instrument cassette laid flat, and the SB01 basket ships with the unit so the load comes out in one lift. The cycle is whatever you set on the digital timer, which runs to 30 minutes with a 120 s degas phase at the start, while the two ceramic heaters hold the solution in the 40–60 °C band.

So the daily arithmetic is cycles rather than cassettes. Four cycles in a morning and three in the afternoon is seven cassettes in a day, and the 6 L tank is the reason each of those cycles carries a whole cassette instead of a loose tray. Nothing here batches two cassettes at once: one cassette is what fills the tank usefully, and that is the honest limit of this size.

Cycles you run in a day	Cassettes cleaned	What that rhythm looks like
2–3	2–3	A single surgery with a light morning list
4–6	4–6	One dentist and one hygienist with turnover between patients
7–10	7–10	Two chairs running, or a surgical list in the middle of the day
More than 10	10+	Now the queue, not the tank, is the constraint

In the last row the question is no longer whether 6 L is enough — the unit still cleans one cassette per cycle — but whether the room wants two cleaners on two benches so a second cassette can run while the first is being rinsed. Tell us the cassette count per day and we will say which of those two problems you actually have.

What has to be true of the room before the unit goes on the bench?

Four things, and all four are checkable before the carton is opened. The electrical side is the one that fails an inspection: the unit runs from a standard North American supply at AC 100–120 V / 60 Hz, with 320 W of total load across the transducers and heaters — roughly 2.7 A at 120 V, an ordinary branch circuit rather than anything special, but a unit without its cETL mark still should not be installed in a commercial setting.

Item	Requirement	Where the figure comes from
Receptacle	AC 100–120 V / 60 Hz, standard North American outlet	Rating on the unit nameplate
Circuit load	320 W total, about 2.7 A at 120 V (derived from rated power)	Two transducers ≤ 80 W each plus two ceramic heaters
Safety mark	cETL by Intertek, to CSA C22.2 No. 68 and UL 73	Intertek report 220112140GZU-001, applicable to model CS6.2
Bench space	31.1 × 17.2 cm of tank, plus room to lift the basket clear	Tank dimensions and removable SB01 basket
Drain and dry-down	Ability to empty and dry the tank at the end of the day	Solution is changed daily and not left in the tank

The unit weighs approximately 9.2 kg empty, so it is a benchtop appliance one person can move, not a plumbed installation: no water connection, no drain line. You fill to the marked level and you empty it at the end of the day.

What belongs in an ultrasonic bath, and what must stay out?

This is the part that decides whether the cleaner helps or quietly damages an instrument stock, and the answer is the same for every ultrasonic unit at every price. What changes with this machine is that 48 kHz gives a gentler cavitation field for plated and hinged work, so the question becomes which load goes in which cycle.

Load	In the bath?	What to watch
Stainless cassettes, loaded	Yes — the load this tank is sized for	Lay flat in the basket; never on the tank floor
Hinged and plated instruments	Yes, on the 48 kHz setting	Keep them from touching each other — contact surfaces block cavitation
Lumens and threaded joints	Yes, plus a brush	Ultrasonic energy does not travel down a narrow channel
Aluminium and anodised instruments or trays	No	Cavitation and alkaline solutions attack both — true of any ultrasonic bath
Heavily soiled instruments from the chair	Only after gross decontamination	Heavy debris shortens solution life and blunts the cycle
Anything the instrument maker says not to immerse	No	The instrument's reprocessing instructions come before any cleaner setting

The housing of the CS6.2 is aluminium alloy and ABS, which is worth reading twice: the aluminium warning applies to what goes into the tank, not to the machine, whose shell sits outside the bath and is never immersed.

What does the routine look like, day by day?

When	Task	Why it matters
Start of day	Fill, add solution, run the 120 s degas cycle	Fresh tap water is saturated with dissolved air, which absorbs the energy that should form cavitation bubbles
Before the first load	Heat the solution into the 40–60 °C band	Warm solution removes soil measurably better than cold
Every cycle	Load in the basket or cassette, never piled on the floor	Metal on metal blocks cavitation underneath
After every cycle	Rinse and inspect before pouching	The cleaner lifts soil; inspection is the check that the lift happened
Daily, or sooner if soiled	Change the solution	The most common reason practices report poor cleaning results
End of day	Empty and dry the tank	Solution left overnight is what shortens the life of the transducer plate
When the basket wears	Re-order the SB01 basket	The basket is a part number, not a consumable of the machine

Two questions that come in before an order, answered here rather than saved for a call. The tank cannot take two cassettes at once: 31.1 × 17.2 cm of floor plus a 6 litre volume means one cassette fills it usefully, and two would sit against each other and against the walls — the exact contact pattern that ruins a cavitation field. And the heater is not something you stand over: it is controlled from the same panel as the timer, the band is selectable between 40 and 60 °C, and the unit holds the setting for the length of the cycle. What the unit does not do is log the cycle, so the temperature and time record for your reprocessing file is written on the room's own log.
