®
The <strong>Better</strong> <strong>Built</strong> R600 series cage and rack washer is the result of modern<br />
technology combined with a proven spray design. This approach delivers the<br />
cleaning performance, ease of use and long-term durability demands of today’s<br />
busy laboratories. Choose from four models to best suit your site conditions and<br />
washing requirements.<br />
R600 SERIES CAGE & RACK WASHERS<br />
High Pressure Spray with Total Coverage<br />
Wash and rinse solutions are distributed throughout<br />
the wash chamber by rotating spray arms positioned<br />
for complete coverage. Spray arms are driven by<br />
water pressure, no oscillating manifold is required.<br />
Choice of Sizes and Door Configurations<br />
The R600 series washers are available in single<br />
door and two door pass-thru models. The simplicity<br />
of our design allows us to fabricate custom<br />
sizes to match important length, width or height<br />
requirements.<br />
Turbo Wash System<br />
Two side tanks are positioned on the service side of<br />
the cabinet; one tank speeds up fill times, the other<br />
speeds up drain duration. The combination reduces<br />
alkaline wash to 15 minutes and acid wash to 20<br />
minutes.<br />
Guaranteed Temperatures<br />
Throughout the Cycle<br />
Chemical suppliers have specific temperature<br />
recommendations for best performance from their<br />
detergents. Our micro-processor control system<br />
allows the user to preset the correct solution<br />
temperature for each step of the wash cycle and for<br />
guaranteed bacteria kill during the final rinse.<br />
Touch Screen Controls<br />
The touch screen controls allow the user to easily<br />
select from 12 pre-programmed cleaning cycles. The<br />
easy to read information screen shows the current<br />
operating cycle and stage, actual temperature and<br />
time remaining.<br />
Micro-processor<br />
Cycles and communication features are controlled<br />
by micro-processor. Each cycle can be preset for<br />
time, temperature, multiple washes, multiple rinses,<br />
chemical additives, exhaust and water saving for<br />
maximum efficiency. Programmed wash cycle are<br />
protected via pin number access, ensuring up to 8<br />
* (Shown with optional stainless steel enclosure)
levels of security. Pre-set temperatures for wash<br />
and rinse cycles are guarantees and are verified<br />
with our alarm logging capabilities. Recording<br />
of wash cycle data is now available digitally<br />
with our optional compact flash card or with<br />
our Ethernet connectivity to PLC date retrieval<br />
option.<br />
Solid Construction for Durability<br />
All <strong>Better</strong> <strong>Built</strong> washers are built with durability<br />
in mind. Cabinets and doors are all stainless<br />
steel construction, fully welded and polished<br />
to a satin finish. The complete solution<br />
circulation system including pumps, flanges,<br />
pipe connections and loading equipment is<br />
constructed of type 304 stainless steel for<br />
compatibility with all types of detergents. Type<br />
316 stainless steel is available as an option. No<br />
plastic or rubber piping connections are used.<br />
Maintenance and Replacement Parts<br />
A preventative maintenance program is<br />
required for warranty purposes and is<br />
available from a local service agent. All <strong>Better</strong><br />
<strong>Built</strong> washers use the Omron PLC program<br />
controllers for long life and ease of service<br />
diagnostics. All other components are nonproprietary<br />
and are available from local<br />
suppliers or the factory.<br />
Noise Reduction<br />
Component selection and design engineering<br />
have ensured that sound levels around the<br />
washer are kept below 80dB which are in line<br />
with current worker safety recommendations.<br />
Acid Compatible<br />
All <strong>Better</strong> <strong>Built</strong> washers have a stainless steel<br />
cabinet and circulatory system, containing no<br />
plastic or rubber connections. This makes the<br />
washer compatible with all alkaline or acidic<br />
detergents.<br />
Safety Features<br />
Personnel safety features include an emergency<br />
stop (e-stop) button located at both the soiled<br />
and clean ends of the washer. Inside the wash<br />
chamber, a highly visible emergency stop<br />
cable is located on one side or as an option on<br />
both sides. The washer door latch is design to<br />
release easily when the door is pushed from the<br />
inside.<br />
Loading <strong>Equipment</strong><br />
A full line of washing racks and carts are<br />
available. Please refer to our cage and rack<br />
washer accessories brochure.
