Chemical agents
Problem How to resolve it
The ingredients in chemical agents
have a strong influence on the longevity
and functionality (throughput) of the
dispensing system. The dispensing
system (hoses and pumps) should be
set up for a particular type of chemical
agent.
General types:
–
Alkaline to pH neutral products,
–
acidic to pH neutral products,
–
hydrogen peroxide.
–
Use Miele approved chemical agents
in this machine.
–
Carry out a regular visual check of
the dispensing system for any
damage.
–
Regularly check the flow rate of the
dispensing system.
Chemical agents can damage
elastomers and plastics in the
washer-disinfector and accessories.
– Use Miele approved chemical agents
in this machine.
– Carry out a regular visual check of
any accessible elastomers and
plastics for damage.
The following oxidising chemical agents
can damage elastomers (hoses and
seals) and plastics in the
washer-disinfector:
–
Nitric acid,
–
peracetic acid,
–
products containing active chlorine.
The wash temperature should be
limited to:
– 50 °C Nitric acid,
– 35 °C with peracetic acid,
–
80 °C with products containing
active chlorine.
The following chemical agents can
release large amounts of oxygen:
–
Hydrogen peroxide,
–
peracetic acid.
–
Only use approved processes such
as OXIVARIO or OXIVARIO PLUS.
–
The wash temperature must be less
than 70 °C when using hydrogen
peroxide.
