oral irrigator

1. Basic performance parameters
Water Pressure Range
Range: Typically 20-140 PSI (pounds per square inch).
Meaning: Low range (20-50 PSI): For sensitive gums, first-time use or post-operative recovery.
Medium-High (50-140 PSI): For deep cleaning of crevices, braces or periodontal pockets.
Adjustment level: Most models support 3-10 levels of pressure adjustment to suit different needs.
Pulse Frequency
Range: Approx. 1200-3000 pulses/minute (i.e. 20-50 Hz).
Significance: High frequency pulses (e.g. over 2000 pulses/minute) are more efficient in flushing plaque.
Some models support variable frequency pulses (alternating strong and weak) to enhance the massage effect.
Water Flow Type
Pulse water flow: Mainstream design, cleaning by intermittent high pressure water flow.
Ultrasonic water flow: High-end models may adopt, the water flow contains micro-bubbles, stronger cleaning power.
Constant water flow: less common, lower cleaning efficiency.

2. Water tank and range
Water tank capacity
Range: 100-800 mL (usually 200-300 mL for portable models, 500 mL or more for household models).
Suggestion: About 200-300 mL of water is needed for a single cleaning, and the water tank capacity directly affects whether or not water needs to be refilled in the middle of the process.
Battery and battery life
Battery type: Lithium battery (mainstream) or Ni-MH battery.
Battery life: Portable: 10-30 days (1 minute, 1 time per day).
Home use wireless model: 2-4 weeks.
Charging method: USB charging (portable), magnetic charging or wireless dock charging.

3. Design and Portability
Product Type
Domestic model: large water tank, long range, suitable for the whole family (e.g. Jabil desktop series).
Portable: small water tank, foldable, suitable for traveling (e.g. Philips Cordless series).
Waterproof rating
IPX7: Short-term immersion (common for high-end models).
IPX5: Splash proof (standard on most models).
Noise level
Generally 60-80 dB, high-end models can be below 60 dB (close to electric toothbrush noise).

4. Additional Technologies
Smart Functions
Pressure Sensor: Automatic pressure reduction to protect gums (e.g. some models of Jabil).
Intelligent Timing: 30 seconds zone change reminder, 2 minutes auto shut-off.
APP connection: record the use habit, customized cleaning mode (such as some national brands).
Other Technologies
Magnetic motor: improve the stability of water flow and reduce noise (high-end models).
Constant pressure control: ensure that the water pressure does not decay when the power is low.
