Audio Desk Systeme Gläss Ultrasonic Vinyl Cleaner PRO X

VINYL CLEANER PRO X Is a Precision Record Cleaning System

The VINYL CLEANER PRO X is designed specifically for cleaning 12-inch (Ø 300 mm) and 7-inch (Ø 175 mm) vinyl records, providing a high-performance solution for preserving sound quality. Engineered with precision and meticulous attention to detail, it ensures vinyl records maintain their optimal audio fidelity by offering a thorough cleaning process. To guarantee longevity and performance, this device must be used in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions, which include strict guidelines regarding proper usage, recommended liquids, and safety standards.

Professional Ultrasonic Cleaning System for Vinyl Records

The VINYL CLEANER PRO X utilises advanced ultrasonic technology combined with mechanical action to clean vinyl records effectively. By integrating distilled water and a specially formulated cleaning concentrate, the device removes dirt particles through the agitation of ultrasonic waves. The records are gently scrubbed by four counter-rotating microfiber barrels that remove the dissolved contaminants, while a high-efficiency filtration system prevents particles from re-entering the cleaning cycle. This ensures consistent cleanliness across all surfaces of the record without leaving residue.

Designed for 12-Inch and 7-Inch Records

This device is optimised for 12-inch and 7-inch vinyl records, and it includes an optional 7-inch Single Kit for precise handling of smaller discs. Using this kit ensures that 7-inch records are properly supported and cleaned with the same thoroughness as larger records. Importantly, other record sizes cannot be cleaned, and attempting to do so will lead to improper operation and potential damage. This deliberate design focus ensures that users experience exceptional cleaning results every time for these specific sizes.

Safe and Non-Corrosive Cleaning Liquids

To safeguard both the vinyl records and the device, VINYL CLEANER PRO X is only compatible with distilled or demineralised water, combined with the manufacturer’s non-alcoholic cleaning concentrate. This formula prevents any damage or buildup of static electricity on the records, which can interfere with playback quality. Additionally, this device must never be used with acidic, harsh, corrosive, or flammable cleaning agents, as these can permanently damage both the vinyl and the internal components of the cleaner.

Automatic Drying with High-Efficiency Fans

After each cleaning cycle, records are dried automatically by two high-performance fans that operate at an optimal air pressure and velocity. This not only ensures that the records are completely dry before handling but also prevents water spots and streaks that could affect sound quality. The drying process is precisely timed, typically taking around four minutes, with options to extend or repeat the process if necessary.

Quiet Operation and Minimal Noise Emission

Despite its powerful cleaning and drying capabilities, the VINYL CLEANER PRO X maintains a low noise profile with a sound emission of just 69.9 dB (A). This feature allows it to operate quietly, making it suitable for environments where low noise levels are important, such as home studios or living spaces.

Robust Design and Safety Features

Built with durability and user safety in mind, the VINYL CLEANER PRO X is designed for indoor use only, featuring a stable and compact form factor (330 x 194 x 270 mm) that sits comfortably on most surfaces. Its sturdy 5.5 kg frame ensures stability during operation, and the integrated spirit level allows users to check that the device is positioned correctly before starting any cleaning session. Additionally, its earthed power supply offers protection against electrical faults, and its internal components, including the current fuse, protect against power surges.

Safe Handling of Neodymium Magnets

The device uses neodymium magnets, which are integral to its cleaning mechanism. While essential for performance, these powerful magnets require caution due to the risk they pose to electronics, magnetic storage devices, and individuals with pacemakers. Users are advised to maintain a safe distance from sensitive devices and follow safety protocols when handling the machine.

Easy Maintenance and Long-Term Durability

The VINYL CLEANER PRO X is built for long-lasting performance, provided it is properly maintained. Components such as the microfiber cleaning barrels, wet filters, and water wipers are designed to be durable, with replacement intervals clearly specified to ensure consistent cleaning quality. The cleaning barrels should be replaced after 500 cycles to avoid scratches, while the wet filter and wipers require inspection and replacement after approximately 100 and 500 cycles, respectively. Users are also advised to drain and replace the cleaning liquid every four weeks to prevent contamination and ensure optimum cleaning results.

Environmentally Conscious Design

This device is designed with an emphasis on sustainability. The manufacturer encourages responsible disposal of the device and its components. Its packaging is fully recyclable, and the device itself is registered under the WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) directive for proper end-of-life management.

The VINYL CLEANER PRO X delivers both exceptional cleaning performance and long-term care for vinyl records, making it an essential tool for audiophiles and collectors looking to preserve the quality of their records.
