The Branson CPX8800H ultrasonic bath is widely recognized in scientific and industrial communities for its precision and reliability. Studies in laboratory settings highlight its effectiveness for sample preparation, cell lysis, and particle dispersion, with consistent results across multiple applications. Customer reviews praise its programmable features, ease of use, and robust performance, making it a preferred choice for both research labs and industrial cleaning tasks. Common uses include degassing liquids, homogenizing solutions, dissolving solids, and cleaning delicate components, providing feedback that emphasizes uniform cleaning and time efficiency.

It showcases the advantages of heated cleaning, allowing temperature settings ranging from 20°C/68°F to 69°C/156.2°F. Additionally, you receive total digital management with programmable features and self-adjusting technology for reliable, stress-free performance – consistently. All Bransonic® baths are suitable for cell separation, preparing samples, and degassing liquids.

The Ultrasonic Bath Branson CPX8800H is a high-capacity laboratory ultrasonic cleaner used for precision cleaning, sample preparation, and liquid processing in research laboratories, manufacturing facilities, and quality control environments. Ultrasonic baths work by generating high-frequency sound waves—typically around 40 kHz—that create microscopic cavitation bubbles in a liquid bath. When these bubbles collapse, they release energy that removes contaminants from surfaces or helps disperse, mix, or degas liquids. 

The CPX8800H model features a large stainless-steel tank with a capacity of approximately 20.8 L (5.5 gal), making it suitable for cleaning larger laboratory glassware, mechanical components, and instrument parts. The unit includes digital controls with a programmable timer (up to about 99 minutes), adjustable heating up to roughly 69 °C, and sweep-frequency technology that distributes ultrasonic energy evenly throughout the bath to improve cleaning consistency. 

Features:

• Sweep frequency: Eliminates standing waves and creates consistent cavitation throughout the tank.
• Industrial transducers: 40 kHz rugged construction ensures durability and consistent performance.
• Digital timer: 99-minute digital timer and continuous ultrasonic operation.
• Heated operation: Can be heated up to 69°C/156.2°F and set to either Fahrenheit or Celsius.
• Memory recall: Last stored parameters are recalled when the unit is turned back on.
• Degassing and conditioning: CPXH degassing period can be set up to 99 minutes. Extended degas times enable applications such as sample preparation, mixing, homogenization, dissolving solids, cell lysing, and particle dispersion.
• Constant power tracking: Automatically maintains the same ultrasonic power by adjusting for changes in liquid level and temperature, ensuring uniform cleaning even with variable bath conditions.
• Programmable operation: Fully programmable system allows engineers to set temperature points and ultrasonic timing. Once the program is started, the unit completes the process automatically with consistent results every time.
• Automatic activation: Ultrasonic cycle begins when process temperature reaches the programmed set point, with selectable times for both degas and ultrasonic processing.
• High/low power control: Adjustable amplitude allows delicate parts to be cleaned safely: 100% power for standard applications, 70% for delicate items, preventing component damage.
• High-temp safety alarm: Protects the unit from overheating.
• User-accessible calibration: Temperature calibration can be adjusted directly from the front panel.
• Accessible controls: Control tower panel located above the tank to prevent exposure to cleaning solutions and facilitate operation.
• Built-in drains: Convenient pour drains on 0.5- and 0.75-gallon models; tank valves on 1.5-gallon and larger models.
• Chemical-resistant body: Durable plastic construction for longevity in demanding environments.
