Laboratory equipment

Wide-necked labware, e.g., beakers, wide-necked Erlenmeyer flasks and Petri dishes, or cylindrical items, e.g., test tubes, can be cleaned inside and out by the rotating spray arms.

For proper cleaning, load these items in whole, half or quarter inserts, and place them in an empty lower basket or upper basket with spray arm.

Narrow-necked items, e.g., narrow necked Erlenmeyer flasks, round flasks, volumetric flasks and pipettes, require the use of injector wagons or injector baskets.

Separate instructions are included for the use of injector baskets and inserts for narrow-necked labware.

This section only covers basic information on how to prepare and load labware.

Petri dishes and similar items should be loaded in a suitable insert with the soiled side facing center.

Pipettes should be placed with the narrow end facing down.

Protective netting can be used to avoid glass breakage.

Quarter baskets should be loaded at least 3 cm away from the edge of the wagon.
