Typical Applications of Piezo Ultrasonic Transducers

Piezo ultrasonic transducers are used in a wide range of applications. In both commercial and industrial environments, these devices allow ultrasonic cleaning apparatus to work effectively — even in the most demanding and delicate of activities, such as in ultrasonic jewelry cleaning.

In healthcare applications, piezo ultrasonic transducers provide capabilities such as the ultrasonic breaking up of kidney stones and the removal of dental plaque. In addition, they're used to conduct precise measurements to identify flaws and other anomalies detected between the transmitters and receivers of ultrasonic waves.

Sound Transducers

Unlike other forms of energy, like radiation — which can be harmful to humans and other life forms — ultrasound is merely a form of sound that exceeds the upper audible limits of the average adult. Beginning at 20 kHz and upwards, ultrasonic transducers can make use of these physically shorter wavelengths. As a result, these types of transducers are ideal for use in nondestructive test situations, as well as for the precise measurement of various materials and physical matter, including conducting ultrasounds on human patients.

Frequency Response Function

The high mechanical quality of APC's piezo transducers ensures that these sandwich-type ultrasonic transducers offer high electro-acoustical efficiency and low heat generation. The mechanical connection of the piezoelectric elements assures a large amplitude output. APC's standard ultrasonic cleaning transducers are available in four frequencies: 28 kHz, 40 kHz, 80 kHz, or 120 kHz. APC also offers a 50 kHz power transducer that can be used in a variety of applications, including as a fabric cleaner, nebulizer, atomizer, for ultrasonic mixing, or for cell disruption.
