Miele PG 8583 CD Washer-Disinfector: Performance, Safety, and Precision for the Laboratory
The Miele PG 8583 CD is a professional washer-disinfector designed for the thorough processing of glassware and utensils used in scientific, industrial, and healthcare environments. This model is engineered to meet the strict hygiene, traceability, and treatment quality requirements of laboratories, while ensuring simple and secure daily operation.
Its field of application covers all sectors requiring meticulous treatment of laboratory instruments: organic or inorganic chemistry, biology, microbiology, biotechnology, academic research, hospital laboratories, as well as secondary and higher education. The PG 8583 CD effectively processes test tubes, beakers, pipettes, bottles, funnels, capsules, sequencing plates, and many other reusable utensils, while preserving their nature and fragility.
This washer operates through a process combining cleaning, rinsing, thermal disinfection, and drying. It features a precise dosing system for chemicals, an integrated drying unit, as well as upper and lower spray arms. Continuous monitoring of wash pressure and spray arm rotation enables the detection of anomalies such as foam formation or improper loading, ensuring optimal and reproducible results with every cycle.
Operational safety is enhanced by an automatic door lock and a simple display screen, operated via touch-sensitive keys. The user can easily select, adjust, or monitor current programs with full transparency. Menus are intuitively organized to allow quick access to essential settings such as language, time, temperature, or water hardness.
The PG 8583 CD complies with European Directive 2006/42/EC on machinery. It is suitable for process validation, a key requirement for laboratories subject to strict traceability and quality standards. An interface is also available for connection to external software or a printer, facilitating the creation of treatment protocols and the recording of data.
Treatment quality also depends on the quality of the water used. The PG 8583 CD is equipped with a built-in water softener and a special salt regeneration system, adjustable according to local water hardness. This system prevents limescale build-up and ensures the longevity of both the instruments and the machine.
The washer is also compatible with a wide range of trolleys, baskets, and inserts from the Miele brand, providing flexible configurations based on load types and spatial constraints. A precise height adjustment of the upper basket allows for the processing of objects of various sizes without compromising water distribution during washing.
Every component of the washer has been designed to facilitate regular cleaning, preventive maintenance, and operator safety. System and error messages are clearly displayed on the screen, and the different cleaning stages can be monitored in real time, with the option for automatic logging.
