Superior Cleaning Results
Miele washers employ a delicate balance
of four factors to ensure exemplary
cleaning results. Through a careful balance
of wash time, water temperatures, water
circulation, and specific detergents, Miele
systems provide reliable wash results.
Advanced wash programs, precise
sensors, and leading componentry; Miele
truly is advancing the science of clean.
PerfectVision
Miele’s new Profitronic+ controller ushers
in a new era of streamlined, user-friendly
machine interfaces that maintain great
depths of customability and data logging.
The PG 8527 comes standard with
12 wash programs and 17 utility
programs plus the ability to store 35
additional custom wash programs as
your requirements dictate.
Operation is straight
forward. Controlled
through a flat glass
screen display for
simplified cleaning,
program selection is
via capacitive touch
controls, providing an extremely durable
and elegantly streamlined set of controls
that are not hindered by any protrusions.
Through 15 selectable languages, minimal
controls, and a modular CAN-BUS design
for future scalability, the PG 8527 allows
central wash areas to be up and running
comfortably in a short time frame.
PerfectVision
Beyond validation, the PG 8527 offers a
new patented conductivity meter to ensure
proper cleaning.
The sensor measures the conductivity
inductively, with no sensors exposed to
water. Your benefit? The system is
absolutely maintenance free and no
calibration is required.
Upon setting the
permissible water
conductivity, the PG
8527’s meter then
monitors accurately
within the ranges of
0-100 mS/cm and
0.1-120 mS/cm. The controller can be set
to add additional rinses until the target
conductivity level is reached. You are
assured residual-free rinses with
reliable, repeatable wash results.
Hygienic Wash Chamber Design
The PG 8527 features a self-draining wash
chamber with coved corners and sloped
ceiling for superior hygienic operation.
To withstand the
rigors present in
your workplace, the
PG 8527’s entire
wash chamber is
constructed of
high-grade 316L
stainless steel for extra corrosion
resistance. And, with with no internal
heater elements, the PG 8527 presents
a truly well engineered wash chamber
for years of worry-free operation.

Engineered Perfection,
Miele’s Solution for Perfect Cleaning
PerfectVision
The PG 8527 comes standard with
on-board, color-coded liquid detergent
and neutralizer dispensers for increased
safety and simplicity. Chemical dispensing
is monitored through Miele’s revolutionary
PerfectFlow Sensor system.
This advanced system employs ultrasound
technology, producing precise readings
irrespective of ambient temperature and
fluid viscosity conditions.
Highly reliable and
entirely automatic,
its liquid dispensing
provides high levels
of accuracy while
eliminating potential
user error in the
chemical dosing
process. In addition,
the included reservoir means less refilling,
freeing valuable staff time.
Choice of Machine Base Selection
Miele offers both a stationary and a
mobile base, both manufactured by Miele
of high-grade stainless steel.
Optional Pass-Through Model
The PG 8528, Miele’s optional dual-door
model, is designed for critical applications
where a pass-through washer is needed.
Profitronic+ control panels are featured
on both the clean- and dirty-sides, with
specific functions for simple operation.
Miele also offers a stainless steel trim kit
for flush, in-wall installations.
PerfectVision
The PG 8527 spray arm monitoring system
employs a sensor strip located outside of
the chamber to monitor spray arm rotation.
Rotation speed of
all spray arms is
monitored within
the out-of-range
values above or
below 45 rpm or 25
rpm respectively,
and is customizable to 15-55 rpm.
When the value is found to be out of the
specified range, or if the spray arm
movement is blocked entirely, the PG 8527
automatically creates an alarm condition.
This system prevents improper machine
loading while assuring a good wash result.
PerfectVision
The PG 8527 offers an all-glass door
option with interior cabinet lighting to
allow optimal visual monitoring of the
wash process.
Cabinet lighting
time lengths can be
user defined, and
the lift door can
open automatically
after program end
if required.
The door adheres to Miele’s strict
engineering guidelines, and is extremely
shatter resistant and has been designed,
tested, and manufactured to minimize
unwanted heat transfer.
PerfectVision
Miele’s optional HEPA drying system
with a 1,000-hour maintenance cycle
provides a faster, more complete drying .
Combined with
Miele’s assortment
of direct-injection
baskets, forced-air
drying blows air
both around the
chamber and into
each individual piece of glassware for
complete drying, even in difficult,
restrictive narrow-neck items.
The PG 8527 features an improved air
path for particulate-free drying, with the
HEPA filter positioned directly behind the
entrance to the wash cabinet to ensure
that particulate contamination from the
heating system, fan, and silencers cannot
enter the cabinet.
Drying times and temperatures (ambient
to 115° C) are fully adjustable to meet the
demands of objects being dried.
Modular Design
The Miele PG 8527 is available for your
specific wash requirements thanks to a
highly flexible modular design. This allows
customization down to an impressive level,
ensuring the machine you order and
receive is exactly what your facility will best
benefit from.

programming simple, and an optical
interface allows programming and digital
archiving. Using the optional internal
printer module, or an external printer via
the on-board RS-232 port, the
Profitronic+ system can document select
program parameters, including date,
machine number, program, detergent,
pump status, and temperatures.
As with the Profitronic+ controller, the
entire PG 8527 is designed to be validation
friendly. Featuring spray arm monitoring,
conductivity metering, and a sample test
port, the PG 8527 is ideally suited for
facilities requiring documented, valid
cleaning results.
Simplified Operation
The Profitronic+ controller features clearly
displayed operator prompts on a bright,
flush glass full-text capacitive touch LCD
navigation display with a choice of
multiple languages including English and
Spanish. Additionally, the capacitive touch
controller works even with gloved hands.
A four-level security system allows
strict control over machine access. The
following levels can be selected:
• Limited program access
• Full program access
• Full program access plus programming
• Automatic Basket Recognition System
This level is the ultimate safeguard,
allowing only the program specified on the
magnetic basket-coding strip to be run.
Although highly advanced, the Profitronic+
is not difficult to master. These superior
features simply enable you to maximize
efficiency in your wash area. Another way
