EYE PROTECTION What is the best method for cleaning the lenses on protective eyewear to avoid scratching the lens? Protective eyewear primarily uses polycarbonate lens material, which is prone to scratching and clouding when improper cleaning techniques are used. To keep the lenses on your safety glasses from becoming scratched or cloudy follow these easy steps: Following the above cleaning techniques will keep your lenses clean and help extend the life of your eyewear. 1. Use a lanolin-free detergent such as Dawn dish liquid to remove dirt and oils from both sides of the lens. 2. Disinfect by using an alcohol-free disinfecting wipe such as Sporicidin. 3. Rinse your lenses with clear water. 4. Wipe the lenses dry with a soft microfiber cloth to remove any streaks or cleaning solution residue.

SCAN THE QR CODE with your smart phone and watch a demo of the performance test! TIN FOIL TEST The performance of the ultrasonic cleaning unit should be tested on a regular basis by using a few strips of regular weight (household) aluminum foil. 1. Prepare a fresh tank of cleaning solution according to the manufacturer s directions. Run the unit for 15 minutes to de-gas the solution. This de-gassing will eliminate any air found in fresh solution. Turn the unit off. 2. Suspend a piece of tin foil approximately 4 x 5 in the solution using cut lengths of coat hangers. In any case, make sure that the tin foil does not come in contact with the sides or bottom of the tank. 3. Turn unit on and run the unit for 5 minutes. Lift the foil out of the solution. A proper working ultrasonic cleaner will leave a mostly even, distributed pattern of holes and pits in the foil. 4. An ultrasonic cleaner that is not performing properly will leave only a few holes, or no holes or pits at all in the tin foil. In this case, contact your Burkhart Account Manager.
