Safety and Versatility on Miele Large-Chamber Decontamination Units

The highest possible safety margins with respect to washing and disinfecting glassware combined with maximum flexibility in catering for varying load types and sizes in hospitals are benefits offered by Miele's PG 8527/28 large-chamber decontamination units.

“The addition of the PerfectFineFilter has completely eliminated the guess work for lab managers and maintenance personnel,” Malcolm Peck, Miele Professional Laboratory Technical Specialist, stated.  “In laboratories where critical research is taking place, lab managers require validated cleaning processes and the introduction of human error along any part of the process can return inconsistent or unacceptable results.  With the PG 8527, Miele provides many features to reduce human error in the wash process.”

The new micro-fine filter system provides a very large surface area with a huge number of extremely fine pores (only 0.2mm in diameter). These reliably filter out even the smallest particles from water in circulation.

For optimum filtration, the PerfectFine filter only needs cleaning under running water and using compressed air. For this purpose it is simple to remove from the chamber. The PerfectFine Filter is just one of many intelligent enhancements that make the PG 8527 simple to use and results in a more precise outcome for users, including;

• The Perfect Speed Sensor – A unique sensor strip has been installed on the outside of the wash chamber to monitor spray arm rotation.  It lets the user know immediately if the rotation is out of sync or if there was a loading problem, creating an alarm situation if one of the spray arms is completely blocked.
• Perfect HEPA Drying -- This optional drying system has been improved to provide a faster more complete drying. The HEPA filter is also fitted directly upstream from the wash cabinet, giving you increased air purity in the cabinet. No air born particles from heating, fan or silencers are in the drying air.
• Perfect Flow Sensor – The PG8527 has on-board, colour-coded liquid detergent and neutraliser dispensers for increased safety and simplicity.  The chemical dispensing is monitored through the revolutionary Perfect Flow Sensor.  This advanced system utilises ultrasound technology, producing precise monitoring of detergent flow regardless of ambient temperature and fluid viscosity conditions.

The PG 8527 is designed for high throughput, centralised wash areas and the flexible Miele basket system allows for up to three levels of injection cleaning or five levels of standard non-injection cleaning. In addition, it has been tested to run 15,000 cycles and has a life expectancy of 10 years based on 6 wash cycles per day and 260 workdays per year.
