Miele Laboratory Glassware Washer G 7883 - Manual (Page 25)

Laboratory equipment
Wide-necked labware, e.g., beakers,
wide-necked Erlenmeyer flasks and
Petri dishes, or cylindrical items,
e.g., test tubes, can be cleaned inside
and out by the rotating spray arms.
For proper cleaning, load these items in
whole, half or quarter inserts, and place
them in an empty lower basket or upper
basket with spray arm.
Narrow-necked items, e.g., narrow
necked Erlenmeyer flasks, round flasks,
volumetric flasks and pipettes, require
the use of injector wagons or injector
baskets.
Separate instructions are included
for the use of injector baskets and
inserts for narrow-necked labware.
This section only covers basic
information on how to prepare and load
labware.
– Petri dishes and similar items should
be loaded in a suitable insert with the
soiled side facing center.
– Pipettes should be placed with the
narrow end facing down.
– Protective netting can be used to
avoid glass breakage.
– Quarter baskets should be loaded at
least 3 cm away from the edge of the
wagon.
