Loading tips
Select mobile units, baskets and
inserts appropriate for the
application.
^
Load the items to be washed so that
water can access all surfaces. This
ensures that they will be properly
cleaned.
^
Do not place items to be cleaned
inside other pieces where they may
be concealed.
^
Hollow vessels such as beakers,
measuring cylinders, flasks, etc.
should be inverted and placed in the
correct inserts so that water can flow
in and out unrestricted. A cover net
can be used to reduce the risk of
movement during the wash process.
^ Use a cover net (e.g. an A 2) or
mesh tray to secure small and/or
lightweight items to prevent them
from blocking the spray arms or
being caught in the magnetic strip on
the automatic mobile unit recognition
system.
^
Deep based items should be placed
at an angle to allow water to run off
easily.
^
Tall, narrow pieces should be placed
in the center of the baskets. This
ensures good water coverage.
^
Mobile units with an adapter must
engage correctly.
^
Engage inserts correctly into the
module carts.
^
The spray arms must not be blocked
by tall items or items which hang
down in their path. If necessary,
manually rotate the arms to test.
^
Petri dishes and the similar should be
placed in the correct insert with the
soiled side facing the center.
^ Insert pipettes with the pointed end
downwards.
^ Quarter inserts should be placed as
close to the middle of the unit as
possible.
^ Glassware should not stick out of the
door area.
