IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The water in the machine must not
be used as drinking water.
Do not sit or lean on the open door,
or rest objects on it. This could
cause the machine to tip and be dam
aged.
Be careful when sorting items with
sharp pointed ends. Position them
in the machine so that you do not hurt
yourself or create a danger for other
operators.
When using this machine at tem
peratures between 158 °F and
203 °F (70 °C and 95 °C) be especially
careful not to scald or burn yourself.
Baskets and inserts must first cool
down. Any water which may remain in
containers will be very hot and should
be emptied into the wash cabinet.
At the end of the drying cycle open
the door to allow the wash load
and inserts to cool down.
Do not touch the heating elements
during or directly after the end of a
program. You could burn yourself.
Never use a hose or steam cleaner
on or near the machine.
When disposing of an old machine,
first make it unusable. Disconnect
the power cord and cut off the plug. For
environmental and safety reasons en
sure the machine is completely drained
of any residual water and cleaning
agent. Make the door lock inoperative,
so that children cannot accidentally
shut themselves in.
-
-
-
The following points should be ob
served to avoid damage to the
IR 6001 and the loads being cleaned.
Use only cleaning agents formu
lated for special processes and
approved by Miele for use with this ma
chine. Use of unsuitable cleaning
agents could adversely affect the load
or the machine. See the enclosed pam
phlet for recommended detergents.
When a chemical additive is rec
ommended, the manufacturer of
the machine takes no responsibility for
the effect of the chemical on the mate
rial of the items being cleaned. Please
be aware of changes in formulation,
storage conditions, concentrations,
etc., which may not be publicized by
the chemical producer, can have a negative effect on the cleaning result.
The machine is designed for oper-
ation with water and cleaning
agents only. Organic solvents must not
be used in the machine, as the danger
of explosion exists under certain cir
cumstances. Although this is not the
case with all organic solvents, other
problems could arise with their use, for
example damage to rubber and syn
thetic materials.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
In critical applications where strin
gent requirements have to be met,
it is strongly recommended that all pro
cess parameters, such as cleaning
agent or quality of water, are discussed
with the Miele Application Technology
specialists.
If the clean objects are subject to
particularly stringent requirements
(e.g. chemical analysis, industrial pro
cesses), a regular quality control test
should be carried out by the user to en
sure that required standards of cleanli
ness are being achieved.
Do not allow any remains of acids,
solvents, or chloride solutions to
get into the wash cabinet. Similarly,
avoid any materials with a corrosive effect. Their presence as compounds in
any solvents should be minimal (especially those in hazard class A1).
To avoid corrosion, ensure that so-
lutions or steam containing acid
salts do not come into contact with the
outer steel casing of the machine.
Do not use any cleaning agent
which adheres to file dust or filings.
Depending on the type and shape of
the file dust, this could damage the cir
culation pump, or cause contact corro
sion.
-
-
-
-
-
Empty any containers before load
ing them into the IR 6001.
Use special inserts in accordance
with the instructions provided.
Waste water must be discharged in
accordance with national and local
water regulations. Consult your local
water authority. Where discharge is in
direct, ensure that the waterborne resi
dues do not exceed statutory limits.
Only equipment made or autho
rized by Miele should be con
nected to this machine. Consult Miele
on the type and application of such
equipment.

Description of the machine
Applications
The Industrial Cleaner is designed for
specialized sectors of industrial high
technology production, where a consis
tently high standard of cleaning is re
quired, and where the structure of the
items to be cleaned may be complex.
Areas of application are:
Electronics, such as circuit boards
–
and solder frames
Metal cleaning
–
Optics
–
– Particle decontamination
-
Cleaning process
The Industrial Cleaner works on the
principle of fresh water circulation. The
bath time for cleaning and rinsing is
approx. 20-30 minutes. Drying is effected by means of an integrated drying unit. A period of 15 to 45 minutes
must be added to the above time to
thoroughly dry the batch, depending on
the heat retention capacity of the items
in the load and the amount of water re
maining.
-
Water recycling
The IR 6001 comes equipped with a
two stage drainage system, and a
pump to bring rinse water back into the
machine, enabling it to be re-used.
Rinse water which is still quite clean, for
example from the final rinse, can be di
rected into an external holding tank and
be fed back into the machine for the fol
lowing pre-wash or main wash cycle.
The holding tank does not come with
the machine, and must be supplied
on-site. The water from the pre-wash
and main wash is normally discharged
into the waste water system, or into an
effluent treatment plant. The separate
booklet "MCU Program Summary" explains how to program this feature.
-
-
The machine can be programmed, and
a variety of baskets and inserts used,
depending on specific needs.
Special cleaning programs can be writ
ten for individual applications.

Description of the machine
MCU-control
The Industrial Cleaner is controlled by a
micro computer unit. This ensures
maintenance of wash process stan
dards by displaying the current stage of
the process, or an error message if
there is a fault.
The controls can be programmed for a
range of individual applications; for ex
ample, time, temperature, water quality,
dispensing to various liquid detergents
and additives. This enables the user to
adapt the process to individual require
ments. With a large memory capacity,
up to 64 different programs can be
stored and the selected according to
the load to be cleaned. Different keys
are used with the key switch to restrict
access to the operating and programming options.
The control unit has two serial interfaces to allow wash parameters to be
monitored or documented through the
use of a printer or PC (not supplied).
Should your needs change, or the machine be needed for other applications,
different programs can be designed
with the help of Miele.
