A typical specification for RO water is: pH Conductivity TDS Maximum hardness Chlorine Heavy metals Phosphates Silicates Endotoxins Total number of micro-organisms 5. Note that it is the customer’s responsibility to supply the washer disinfector with suitable water. A high concentration of ionic contaminants may cause corrosion and pitting on stainless steel. Getinge Disinfection AB also recommends following local standards. washing and final rinsing phases should be of drinkable quality in accordance with the guidelines . The water used should not increase the biological load on the equipment that is being treated against micro-organisms and their residual products which may cause fever-like symptoms when they get into the human body.

Detailed information about acceptable water quality can be found in “Guidelines for Drinking Water Quality. 3rd Edition” published by WHO. The water used in each stage must be compatible with: * The material that the washer disinfector is made of * The chemicals used in the process * Process requirements for the various stages of the process The main factors for good water quality are: Hardness Ionic contaminants High hardness will cause limescale deposits in the washer disinfector.2 mg/l som SiO2 <0.5 till 8 <30 µs.

Therefore it is possible to recycle the parts of the washer/ flusher disinfector in an environmentally friendly way by means of proper waste sorting. Make sure the worn-out washer/flusher disinfector is kept out of reach of children before it is taken away for recycling. Therefore you should never. Ask your reseller if required. If these materials are placed among the domestic waste or handled in the wrong way. All plastic parts of the washer/ flusher disinfector have international markings on them. place the worn-out washer/ flusher disinfector among the domestic waste. The machine might be contaminated.Handling of worn-out washer/flusher disinfectors Worn-out electrical and electronic machines consist of recyclable materials. not under any circumstances. they also contain materials that are harmful but necessary in order for the machines to function in a proper and secure way.
