Miele PLW 8683 OIL LD DC5 LAN SST laboratory dishwasher
This laboratory dishwasher, specially designed for laboratories, enables high-precision cleaning processes for a wide range of laboratory utensils. Thanks to its robust design and integrated oil and grease-resistant seals, it is a reliable solution for users who want to optimise their daily cleaning routine. Compared to other models on the market, this appliance impresses with its innovative programmes, convenient operation via touch display and flexible loading systems. Especially in laboratory environments where oil and grease deposits frequently occur, this appliance plays an outstanding role thanks to its robust seals and efficient wash programmes.
Precise cleaning processes for laboratory supplies
The appliance offers numerous programmes for different applications, such as universal, intensive, pipette or agar programmes. The specific speed control of the heating pump adjusts the rinsing pressure precisely to the labware to be cleaned in order to both remove stubborn deposits and treat the surfaces gently. In addition, the integrated EcoDry system ensures a shorter drying phase: by automatically opening the door at the end of the programme, residual moisture effectively escapes so that the wash ware dries faster and more gently.
The robust workmanship is reflected, among other things, in a gap-free welded wash cabinet and the use of high-quality materials. A stainless steel housing prevents corrosion and makes the laboratory dishwasher particularly durable, even when used intensively. The equipment with an Ethernet/WiFi module ensures seamless process documentation, which is increasingly important for laboratories with high documentation requirements (e.g. in accordance with GLP).

With an IP protection rating of IP 21, robust sealing against solid foreign bodies and condensation is guaranteed.
Concrete application examples
- Removal of oily residues: Thanks to the oil and grease-resistant seals, the device is ideal for chemical laboratories where organic solvents and oils are frequently used.
- Cleaning large bottles: With a capacity of up to 128 laboratory bottles per batch, even extensive stocks can be cleaned efficiently.
- Preparation of pipettes and test tubes: Up to 98 pipettes as well as 196 test tubes can be cleaned within one programme. The customisable holding systems ensure a secure and tight fit.
- Intensive disinfection: Special programmes such as "Hygiene 93/10" enable defined thermal disinfection to be achieved, ideal for microbiological laboratories that have to work under sterile conditions.
FAQs
How does the EasyLoad system work?
EasyLoad allows for quick and easy placement of wash items on the nozzles. The holders automatically adjust to the size of the glass without the need for manual height adjustment.
What does the variable-speed heating pump do?
The pump regulates the rinsing pressure depending on the programme cycle. This allows stubborn soiling to be removed at high pressure, while low pressure optimally cleans sensitive surfaces and hard-to-reach areas.
How does the appliance support documentation requirements?
The integrated network capability (Ethernet/WiFi) enables direct connection to process documentation software. This allows relevant data such as programme run times, temperatures or detergent quantities to be recorded and archived.
What are the benefits of the EcoDry feature?
After the end of the programme, the door opens as soon as the temperature drops below 70 °C. This allows warm air to escape and condensation to dry more quickly, reducing the overall running time and saving energy.
Is the wash ware immediately ready for use at the end of the programme?
In most cases, yes, especially if you use the EcoDry function. Thanks to automatic door opening and quick drying, the cleaned items can be used again very quickly.
Can the dishwasher be extended with external dosing systems?
Yes, two dosing pumps for liquid detergents and neutralising agents are already integrated. External dosing modules can also be combined, for example to connect larger canisters or other media.
Which substances is it particularly suitable for?
The device is suitable for numerous laboratory chemicals, including inorganic and organic residues, highly adhesive protein residues or oil-based media.
Conclusion
This model combines powerful cleaning functions, precise programme control and a high degree of flexibility. It also offers short rinsing times and a wide range of options for safely reprocessing a wide variety of laboratory glassware or pipettes. The oil and grease-resistant seals are also ideal for heavily contaminated objects. Together with the variable heating pump and the integrated EcoDry system, the appliance offers an ideal combination of efficiency, safety and user-friendliness for demanding laboratory environments. Anyone who values reliable and at the same time resource-saving support during rinsing will find a well thought-out solution here.
