Laboratory glassware and utensils

Load items with wide necks, e.g. glass beakers, wide-necked Erlen-
meyer flasks and petri dishes, or cylindrical items, e.g. test tubes, can
be cleaned and rinsed inside and out using rotating spray arms.
To do this, the load is positioned in inserts and placed in an empty
mobile unit with a spray arm.
Items with narrow necks, e.g.,bottles, narrow-necked Erlenmeyer
flasks, round-bottomed flasks, measuring cylinders and pipettes, re-
quire special load carriers.
Load carriers are supplied with their own operating instructions.
Please note the following when loading:
- Place petri dishes or similar items in the appropriate insert with the
dirty side facing downward.
- Place pipettes with the pointed end facing downwards.
- Arrange inserts at least 3 cm away from the edge of the load carrier.
- Position inserts for test tubes in the centre above the spray arm to
leave the corners of the load carrier free.
- Use a cover net to avoid breakages if required.
