GENERAL DESCRIPTION

7620 WASHER
1. General Description
The Castle 7620 Washer is a compact unit designed
to clean surgical instruments, laboratory glassware,
metalware and utensils. It may be installed on a work
counter, under a counter, or on a freestanding base
cabinet.
The unit features a 20"W x 20"D x 15"H load area
within its wash chamber. A fixed track assembly and
a removable grid are provided as standard
equipment. When in position, the grid will support a
20" x 20" (or smaller) utensil basket, instrument tray,
or assorted loose items. With the grid removed, the
fixed track assembly will support a compatible roll-out
basket grid, or various sized Spindle Headers.
Wash and rinse spray treatments are provided by
means of two spinning manifolds, one located above
and one below the load area. When used, a Spindle
Header coupled directly to the high pressure
plumbing system effectively subjects the interior of
ware to the wash and rinse spray treatments.
Processing cycles are controlled by a programmable
microprocessor-based controller that will store four
pre-programmed cycles. The operator needs only to
select and start an appropriate cycle.
Standard cycle phases provide for a Prewash, a
Wash, and two successive tap water Rinse
treatments followed by a third and final Rinse of
purified water (DI). As an optional treatment,
instrument lubricant (MILK) may be incorporated into
the final Rinse.
All treatment solutions are used once and drained.
