Miele Professional PG85 lab washers

The lab washers in the PG85 range, from Miele Professional, are said to require less water, electricity and process chemicals than other lab washers while being more powerful.

The product features a water circulation system that combines high capacity with a reduced use of resources. A variable-speed circulation pump adjusts water pressure to requirements in the various program phases, saving both water and electricity.

Any valves not used by docked baskets are sealed automatically in order to avoid any unnecessary drop in pressure in the remaining system and to reduce water consumption. Automatic spray arm monitoring and spray pressure monitoring ensures proper reprocessing and issues a warning if readings are out of range.

When it comes to drying laboratory glassware, the machine combines efficiency with convenience. After the last rinse cycle, steam is drawn into the steam condenser at the rear of the unit, where it condenses back to water. An efficient HEPA Class H13 particulate filter prevents airborne particles from the ambient room air from entering the drying system and being deposited on the instruments.

The door is automatically drawn closed by the AutoClose function and the high-end control panel doubles up as a door handle. Touch-on-steel technology makes for simple operation and ease of cleaning. A quick tap on the screen is sufficient to select and launch programs.

An updated system of baskets and inserts is available for use on all models. Depending on individual needs, a handful of modules can be combined. In order to facilitate the complete documentation of process data, lab washers can be hooked up to a laboratory network or to a printer.
