PG 8583: Efficient and Reliable Laboratory Glassware Washer

The PG 8583 laboratory glassware washer sets a new standard in laboratory cleaning, offering superior performance, safety, and convenience. This high-efficiency washer is engineered to handle the rigorous demands of laboratory environments, delivering impeccable cleaning results for glassware and instruments. Featuring advanced technologies such as a DI water connection, EcoDry drying support, and comprehensive monitoring systems, the PG 8583 is an essential tool for laboratories seeking reliable and thorough cleaning of glassware and equipment.

At the core of the PG 8583 is Miele Professional’s variable-speed heater pump, which allows the machine to adjust wash pressure based on the cleaning requirements of individual program stages. High pressure is employed to remove stubborn contaminants, while lower pressure ensures the complete soaking and cleaning of delicate items. With a maximum capacity to clean 128 laboratory bottles or 98 pipettes per cycle, this washer is capable of meeting the demands of busy laboratories. It delivers a significant 40% reduction in water consumption compared to its predecessor, ensuring a more sustainable operation.

The PG 8583 is equipped with the EcoDry function, which enhances drying efficiency using Miele’s patented AutoOpen technology. The washer’s door automatically opens when the internal temperature drops below 158°F, allowing residual moisture to escape from the wash cabinet, resulting in faster drying times and improved convenience. This feature minimizes manual drying, thus reducing the potential for contamination and enabling quicker turnaround times for laboratory tasks.

Safety and reliability are key considerations in the PG 8583's design. The washer is equipped with comprehensive monitoring systems to ensure optimal performance during each wash cycle. Wash pressure and spray arm monitoring detect any deviations from normal operation, such as an obstructed spray arm or excessive foam buildup. These safety features allow for immediate intervention to prevent inadequate cleaning results. Additionally, the seamless, laser-welded wash cabinet minimizes the risk of contamination by preventing the buildup of residues and ensuring a hygienic cleaning environment.

To achieve the highest level of cleanliness, the PG 8583 features a seamless, laser-welded wash cabinet made of high-quality stainless steel. This design ensures a crevice-free interior that resists dirt accumulation and facilitates thorough cleaning. Furthermore, the washer is equipped with heating elements placed outside the wash cabinet, which avoids direct contact with contaminants and supports an uncompromised hygienic cleaning process.

The machine's integrated water softener addresses the challenges posed by mineral deposits in tap water. By removing ions that contribute to water hardness, the PG 8583 prevents deposits from forming on glassware and inside the machine, ensuring consistently clean results and extending the life of the equipment. For laboratories dealing with very hard water or a high volume of instruments, additional water demineralization may be advisable to further enhance cleaning quality.

With an interface for optional process documentation, the PG 8583 supports compliance with stringent laboratory standards. This feature allows laboratories to track cleaning processes for quality assurance and regulatory requirements. The washer offers 14 pre-set programs and 2 customizable program slots, providing flexibility to meet specific cleaning needs. Programmable controls and a TouchControl system facilitate easy operation, while features like automatic program restart, time-left display, and delay start up to 24 hours add to the user convenience.

The Miele PG 8583 is an ideal choice for laboratories that require top-notch cleaning, efficiency, and safety in their glassware washer. Its innovative features, combined with a robust design, make it an indispensable tool for achieving high standards of laboratory hygiene.
