The processing result depends on the
rinsing and flushing of all surfaces and
hollow spaces of the
labware/instruments with wash water.
One upper and one lower spray arm in
the washer-disinfector distribute the
wash water in the wash cabinet.
When
Spray arm monitoring
is
activated, the system will check
whether the speeds of the spray arms
are maintained within predefined limit
values.
Mobile unit
Mobile units can be fitted with one or
several spray arms.
They must be equipped with magnets
for the speed monitoring to be
functional.
,
Spray arm monitoring will only
function if the type of mobile unit is
coded with a magnetic strip (see
Programming Manual, Coding a
mobile unit).
Upper and lower baskets
For PG 8535 und PG 8536
washers-disinfectors, combinations of
upper and lower baskets may be used
in addition to the mobile units.
The upper baskets can be also fitted
with spray arms using speed
monitoring. This does not require a
magnetic strip.
As per factory setting, spray arm
monitoring for the upper basket is
deactivated.
This setting may be kept if only upper
baskets without spray arm are used.
If upper baskets with and without spray
arms are used and spray arm
monitoring for the upper basket is
activated, the system will output the
following query prior to starting the
program:
Basket with one spray arm?
This query can be answered with
Yes
or
No
.
Miele Service can deactivate this
query if only upper baskets with
spray arms are used.
Lab applications
Narrow-necked items, e. g.
narrow-necked Erlenmeyer flasks,
round flasks, volumetric flasks and
pipettes, require the use of injector
upper or lower injector baskets.
In the area of lab applications, spray
arm monitoring for the upper basket
spray arm is only used for some
combinations.
