Miele PLW 8683 CD DC5 CM laboratory dishwasher
With its high capacity and powerful performance, this appliance is the ideal solution for all laboratory environments that prioritise efficient cleaning, reliable drying and the best possible process documentation. Specially tailored to the demanding requirements of laboratories, this laboratory washer is characterised by its robust design, variable application options and user-friendly operation. Anyone who regularly wants to thoroughly and reliably reprocess laboratory glassware, pipettes or other sensitive instruments will find an optimum combination of flexibility and quality that clearly sets it apart from comparable products.
Innovative cleaning and drying technology
The EasyLoad system makes it particularly easy to cover the surface of each batch. Narrow-necked tubes, test tubes and vials can be placed on the nozzles effortlessly without having to adjust the height of the holders. For reliable decontamination, the system monitors both the rinsing pressure and the spray arms to ensure a safe process, even if load blockages or a drop in rinsing pressure should occur. Following the cleaning cycle, DryPlus technology ensures efficient hot blowing: air is passed through a class H14 HEPA filter to safely separate even the finest particles.
The integrated conductivity monitoring system ensures that chemical residues are reliably detected in the wash ware. The appliance also supports seamless documentation thanks to a WiFi communication module integrated ex works, which connects to corresponding software solutions. This means that process data can be called up quickly and all steps can be easily traced. Thanks to M Touch Flex and the full-touch colour display, the appliance can be conveniently operated at the touch of a finger, with up to 20 pre-installed programmes and various special wash programmes such as intensive, organics or pipettes to choose from. This efficiently covers different cleaning processes.
