Draper Expert Ultrasonic Cleaning Tank, 3L

Restore parts, components, and precious items to like-new condition with the Draper Expert Ultrasonic Cleaning Tank (UCT-3L) — a 3-litre professional-grade cleaning system engineered for workshops, jewellers, hobbyists, and electronics specialists. Featuring upgraded high-performance transducers, an intuitive touchscreen control panel, and a clear LED display, this stainless steel cleaning tank delivers powerful, contact-free cleaning in minutes.

Whether you're servicing carburettor components, brightening jewellery, restoring coins, or cleaning delicate PCB boards, the UCT-3L provides consistent, thorough results without the elbow grease.

How Ultrasonic Cleaning Works

Ultrasonic cleaning harnesses the science of cavitation. High-frequency sound waves travel through the cleaning fluid, generating millions of microscopic bubbles. These bubbles implode violently against the surface of the submerged item, producing an intense scrubbing action that lifts away dirt, grease, oil, oxidation, and grime.

Because the bubbles are so small, they reach into the tiniest crevices, blind holes, and intricate detail — areas that brushes, cloths, and conventional cleaning simply cannot access. The result is a deep clean that's both faster and more effective than manual methods, with no risk of scratching or damaging surfaces.

Key Features and Benefits

The UCT-3L is built around a robust stainless steel tank designed for durability and chemical resistance, with a built-in drain tap for quick, mess-free fluid changes. The supplied stainless steel basket keeps items suspended for optimal cavitation exposure, while the included lid helps contain splashes and reduce evaporation during longer cycles.

Operation is simple thanks to the responsive touchscreen control panel and bright LED display, allowing precise adjustment of both time and temperature. With a timer adjustable from 1 to 99 minutes and a temperature range of 0–80°C, you can tailor each cycle to the job at hand — gentle warm cleaning for jewellery, longer heated cycles for stubborn engine deposits, or quick refresh runs for electronic components.

The newly upgraded high-performance transducers deliver 100W of ultrasonic power, paired with 100W of heating power, for noticeably improved cleaning performance over standard ultrasonic units in this class.
