Immersible Ultrasonic Transducer Rods Overview
Immersible Ultrasonic Transducer Rods are designed to deliver concentrated ultrasonic energy into cylindrical, tubular, and enclosed spaces where conventional ultrasonic transducer plates may not provide sufficient coverage. The rod-shaped design makes them suitable for industrial ultrasonic cleaning and specialized liquid processing applications.
These Ultrasonic Transducer Rods can be immersed directly into tanks or installed inside suitable vessels to provide localized ultrasonic cavitation. They are commonly used for cylindrical cavity cleaning, tube and pipe cleaning, dispersion, emulsification, homogenization, degassing, and other ultrasonic processing applications.
As an immersible ultrasonic transducer designed for submerged operation, the rod configuration provides flexible installation for custom cleaning tanks, processing vessels, retrofit systems, and specialized ultrasonic processing equipment.

How to Choose the Right Ultrasonic Transducer Rod
Choosing the right Ultrasonic Transducer Rod depends on the cleaning application, tank size, workpiece geometry, contaminants, and required ultrasonic performance. Consider the following factors before selecting a model:
1. Choose the Right Frequency
- 28kHz – Provides stronger cavitation force for removing heavy contamination such as grease, oil, carbon deposits, rust, and industrial residues.
- 40kHz – Provides a balanced choice for general industrial cleaning, precision parts, and components with moderate contamination.
2. Select the Appropriate Power Output
Higher power provides stronger ultrasonic energy and may be suitable for larger tanks, heavier contamination, or higher production requirements.
Consider:
- Tank volume
- Cleaning solution type
- Amount and size of workpieces
- Required cleaning speed
3. Determine Rod Length and Installation Position
The transducer rod length should match your tank dimensions and available installation space. Multiple ultrasonic transducer rods can be installed in larger tanks to achieve more uniform ultrasonic coverage.
Common installation methods include:
- Horizontal installation near the tank bottom
- Vertical installation along tank walls
- Custom positioning for irregular tanks or retrofit systems
4. Match the Rod Material and Configuration
For standard industrial ultrasonic cleaning, stainless steel construction provides reliable durability. For special environments involving aggressive chemicals, high temperatures, or unique process requirements, customized materials and configurations may be available.
If you are unsure which submersible ultrasonic transducer or ultrasonic transducer rod is suitable for your application, contact SIWEEP with your tank dimensions, cleaning solution, workpiece type, and required cleaning results. We can recommend a suitable frequency, power rating, rod length, and configuration.

Why Use a Rod Instead of a Transducer Plate?
Rod-type ultrasonic transducers provide a concentrated ultrasonic field, making them particularly useful when ultrasonic energy needs to be delivered into a specific area, cylindrical cavity, or confined space.
Compared with large-area transducer plates, the rod design provides greater flexibility for:
- Cylindrical and tubular cleaning
- Narrow internal cavities
- Localized ultrasonic processing
- Dispersion and emulsification
- Custom processing vessels
