Process chemicals

 Only use process chemicals which are suitable for labwashers.
Do not use process chemicals for domestic machines. Contact
Miele for available process chemicals.
This machine can be used with powder process chemicals or with
liquid process chemicals via an external DOS module.
DOS modules are fitted by Miele Service and can be retrospectively
fitted at any time.
Miele recommends the use of liquid process chemicals.
For environmental reasons, it is important to always consider the
following factors when selecting a process chemical:
– How alkaline does the process chemical need to be for the cleaning
application involved?
– Are protein-removing enzymes required and is the program
sequence suitable for this?
– Are tensides required for proper dispersion and emulsification?
– Is a process chemical containing active chlorine required or can an
active chlorine-free process chemical be used?
 Process chemicals containing chlorine can damage the
elastomers of the machine.
If the use of process chemicals containing chlorine is required, a
maximum temperature of 167°F/75°C in the "Process chemical
dispensing" program blocks is recommended (see program chart).
In machines equipped with special oil-resistant elastomers (from
the factory) for oil and grease applications, process chemicals
containing chlorides may not be used!
For cleaning specific types of soiling, and for information on the
process chemicals and additives to use for liquid dispensing, please
contact Miele Technical Service.
