Connecting the water inlet
,
The water in the lab washer is
not drinkable.
– The lab washer must be connected
to the water supply in accordance
with local and national regulations.
– The machine is constructed so it may
be connected to a suitable supply
without an extra non-return valve
unless required by code.
– High iron content can leave a rust
film on stainless steel labware and
the machine itself.
When the chloride content in the
domestic water supply is above
100mg/l, the risk of corrosion
damage to stainless steel labware is
greatly increased.
– In certain regions (e.g., mountainous
areas) the water composition may
cause condensate to form, requiring
the use of softened water in the
steam condenser.
– An acceptable water pressure (flow
rate) is 10 - 147 psi. However, the
recommended pressure is
25 - 60 psi.
If the water pressure is below 30 psi,
the fill time will take longer.
If the "Fill/Drain" indicator fault code
"F..E" lights, contact the Miele
Technical Service Department.
– The maximum permissible static
water pressure is 145 psi over
pressure.
– If the water pressure lies outside
these ranges, please contact Miele
Technical Service for advice (the
"Fill/Drain" indicator, may appear in
the display "F E").
– The lab washer is designed for
connection to cold water (blue
marking) and hot water (red marking)
up to 158°F (70°C) max.
Connect the water intake hoses to
the cold and hot water faucets.
– If there is no hot water supply, the
intake hose with the red marking
must also be connected to the cold
water supply.
