Key Features
-
Exceptional Cleaning Performance: Employs a variable-speed circulation pump to optimize water pressure, delivering powerful cleaning for tough residues and gentle soaking for thorough coverage. Enhanced spray arm design and a multi-stage filtration system ensure pristine results for laboratory glassware, from pipettes to flasks.
-
Flexible High-Capacity Chamber: Accommodates up to 128 laboratory bottles, 98 pipettes, or 196 vials per cycle, with stacking options for mixed loads (e.g., 64 bottles with 196 vials). The EasyLoad system and modular racks simplify loading, supporting diverse glassware sizes and shapes for maximum efficiency.
-
Advanced Drying Technology: Features Miele’s DryPlus system with high-efficiency hot air drying and a HEPA H14 filter, ensuring particle-free, spotless drying of glassware, including narrow-necked items, for immediate use without manual intervention.
-
Comprehensive Process Validation: Monitors wash pressure, spray arm performance, and optional conductivity levels to ensure consistent outcomes. Integrated dosing pumps with flow meters provide accurate chemical delivery, while WiFi connectivity supports detailed cycle documentation, aligning with Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) and Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) requirements.
-
Customizable Programming: Equipped with a vibrant M Touch Flex color touchscreen, offering intuitive access to pre-set programs and 20 preset cycles and 10 freely programmable programme slots.
