Intended use
8
This Miele laboratory glassware washer can be used to reprocess
laboratory glassware and laboratory utensils with water based media.
The process includes cleaning, rinsing and drying, and disinfection
where required. Due to the wide variety of laboratory glassware and
laboratory utensils on the market, it may be necessary in some cases
to establish whether it is suitable for reprocessing in a laboratory
glassware washer. This will depend on its use and the type of soiling
present as well as disinfection parameters. Please also observe
information provided by the manufacturer of the laboratory glassware
and laboratory utensils.
Laboratory glassware and laboratory utensils suitable for
reprocessing are for example:
– Vessels such as test tubes, beakers, flasks, cylinders, etc.
– Measuring vessels such as measuring cylinders, pipettes,
volumetric flasks, etc.
– Dishes such as petri dishes, watch glasses, etc.
– Plates such as slides, sequencing plates, etc.
– Small items such as lids, spatulas, magnetic stirring rods, stoppers,
etc.
– Other items such as funnels, pipe/hose pieces, etc.
Examples of application areas:
– Laboratories in schools, colleges and universities,
– Research, quality assurance, development, technology and
production.
– Different areas of inorganic, organic, analytical and physical
chemistry,
– Biology, microbiology and biotechnology,
– Hospital laboratories.
Laboratory glassware and laboratory utensils for reprocessing are
referred to as the wash load if they are not more closely defined.
Processing conditions must be suitable for the wash load and for the
type of soiling. Process chemicals must be suitable for the type of
soiling and for methods of analysis being used.
The use of a suitable carrier (wash carts, baskets, modules, inserts,
etc.) is important to ensure the adequate cleaning of the load.
Examples are given in the section "Areas of application".
This machine is programmed to carry out the final rinse with mains
water or with processed water of a quality to suit the application (e.g.
purified water, fully demineralized water or demineralized water).
It is particularly important to ensure the appropriate water quality for
the rinse and final rinse of items for analytical purposes.
