Frequently Asked Questions
1. Why use a laboratory washer instead of manual cleaning?
Laboratory washers provide automated, repeatable cycles that ensure consistent temperature and detergent dosing. This eliminates human error, reduces water consumption, and protects staff from exposure to hazardous contaminants.
2. What is the difference between a dishwasher and a laboratory washer?
Laboratory washers are built with high-grade stainless steel and use powerful circulation pumps and specialized spray patterns designed specifically for the narrow necks of laboratory glassware, which standard dishwashers cannot effectively clean.
3. Are these washers suitable for surgical instruments?
Yes. Many of our laboratory washers and disinfectors are designed to meet medical standards for thermal disinfection, making them ideal for cleaning and decontaminating surgical and dental instruments.
4. What accessories are needed for a laboratory washer?
Depending on your load, you may need specialized modules for bottles, injector nozzles for pipettes, or covering nets for small items. Brands like Miele offer a vast range of inserts to customize the chamber layout.
5. Can these systems handle ion exchange for water purification?
Many professional laboratory washers can be connected to external or internal demineralization systems, such as ion exchange resins, to ensure the final rinse uses high-purity water, preventing mineral deposits on glassware.
