4 Product description
4.1 Functional description
The TopClean M is a cleaning and disinfection machine with a square rack.
The cleaning and disinfection machine has a cleaning, disinfection and a final rinse
cycle.
A temperature controller maintains the set cleaning and disinfection temperature of
60°C within one cycle. A rotary pump circulates the water from the cleaning tank into
the cleaning nozzles. The water jets hit the washware from different directions. This
ensures uniform cleaning results.
The cleaning cycle is followed by a fresh water final rinse. The washware is rinsed
with 60°C fresh water via a separate nozzle system. This heats up the washware for
the following drying process.
At the same time, the final rinse water is used to regenerate the wash water, which
reduces the degree of soiling of the rinse water.
4.2 Type label
The rating plate is on the inside of the front panel. Additional rating plates are lo-
cated on the switch cabinet behind the front panel, on the display and on the sepa-
rate GiO module (if it is part of the cleaning and disinfection machine).
The rating plate includes the following information:
1 Manufacturer name and address
2 Machine type
3 Model name
4 Serial number
5 Current type
6 Electrical connection
7 Rated power of boiler
8 Water pressure
9 Boiler capacity
10 Steam connection
11 Year of manufacture
12 CE mark
13 IP protection rating
4.3 GiO MODULE
The module works according to the principle of reverse osmosis. Drinking water is
pressed by a pump through a semi-permeable membrane. The membrane lets only
water molecules through. The hardness components and salts (lime scale, etc.) con-
tained in the water are held back. The clean water (permeate) is brought to the dish-
washing machine; the materials held back (concentrate) are brought to the drain.

9018116
4.4 Blue operating concept
1 AktivPlus filter
The parts of the cleaning and disinfection machine that must be touched by the op-
erator in operation and in daily use are blue. And so after a short briefing, operators
know intuitively that they have to remove and clean the wash system, tank cover
sieve and filter, for example.
4.5 Detergent and rinse aid
Warning
Risk of injury from contact with chemicals
•Observe the safety data sheets and dosing recommendations of the chemical
manufacturers.
•Use eye protection.
•Wear protective gloves.
•Do not mix different chemical products.
Caution
•Only use products that are suitable and approved for commercial cleaning and
disinfection appliances. Generally, the currently valid documentation of the PPE
manufacturer must be followed when choosing the right cleaning chemicals.
Deviations from this can lead to a loss of product liability.
(Cf. EU 425/2016 - The PPE manufacturer is responsible for releasing the
cleaning and disinfection process and its parameters)
•Do not mix different cleaning products.
The cleaning and disinfection appliance is equipped by default with dosing units for
dosing liquid detergent/disinfectant and rinse aid. Manual dosing with powder
cleaner is not intended.
Approved products:
Rinse aid

4.5.1 Detergent
Detergents are alkaline (pH value should be > 7) and are needed to dissolve soiling
from the washware. The standard setting is 2 ml of detergent per litre of tank water.
If necessary, the concentration can be adjusted depending on the water quality,
washware and degree of soiling. This setting is made during commissioning by an
service technician authorised by MEIKO or the chemical supplier.
Change dosing quantity, see chapter “Dosing system level” on page 42.
4.5.2 Rinse aid
Rinse aids are acidic (pH value should be between 2 and 7) and accelerate the dry-
ing of the washware by reducing the surface tension of the water so that it can run
off the washware quickly.
The correct dosage is achieved when the water drips evenly from the washware and
depends on the available water quality on-site. This setting is made during commis-
sioning by an service technician authorised by MEIKO or the chemical supplier.
Change dosing quantity, see chapter “Dosing system level” on page 42.
4.5.3 Dosing equipment
The components of the dosing units are subject to high demands and must therefore
be regularly maintained and, if necessary, replaced in accordance with the mainte-
nance specification.
4.5.4 Suction lances
Suction lances with level monitoring for rinse aid (blue) and detergent (grey)
Suction lances ensure that the liquid chemical product is sucked in correctly. Suction
lances are inserted vertically into the canisters and are optionally equipped with level
monitoring. When the canister is running low, a message will appear on the machine
display.
4.5.5 Change of products
Caution
When changing the detergent product (even to a product from the same
manufacturer), crystallisation may occur, which can lead to failure of the
dosing system.
•When changing the detergent product, flush the dosing system with warm wa-
ter.
Procedure for changing the detergent product:
1. Provide a suitable container with warm water and insert the suction lance.
2. Thoroughly flush the dosing system several times by venting the lines, see
page 41.
3. Wipe the suction lance and put it into the canister with the other detergent prod-
uct.
4. Refill the dosing system by venting the lines.

16 / 54
9018116
In addition, observe the instructions of the manufacturer of the chemicals and
the respiratory protective equipment. This applies in particular to the conver-
sion from manual to mechanical processing.
4.6 Chemo-thermal disinfection method
The tank temperature falls when the programme begins, depending on the
washware. The set programme cycle time can be exceed by the time it takes to
reach the prescribed disinfection parameters. Due to the technical hysteresis, the
temperature of the wash water can reach 62°C for a short time. This ensures that
60°C prevails continuously on the washware.

If there is any suspicion of transportation damage, the shipping company and
MEIKO must be informed immediately in writing. Photograph any damaged parts
and send the pictures to MEIKO.
7.1.2 Requirements for the installation area
The cleaning and disinfection appliance is only frost-proof in as-delivered state or if
equipped with special features (option: frost drainage).
Installation of the cleaning and disinfection machine in an area where the ambient
temperature is below 0° C can result in damage to the internal water circuit compo-
nents (e.g. pump, solenoid valve, boiler, etc.).
•Make sure that the storage and installation site are always frost free.
•Make sure that the ground beneath is capable of taking the load, level and hori-
zontal.
There is a danger of slipping in the working area due to the use of water.
•After assembly, put in place non-slip floor coverings in the working area based
on the general/location-specific safety regulations.

7.1.3 Requirements for the waste water connection
A waste water pump is integrated into the drain pump.
•Connect the drainage hose to the locally available waste water pipe.
–For Australia only:
The drain hose must be connected such that it is watertight with a drain fit-
ting in accordance with AS 1589 AS 2887 and a sanitary waste water pipe
or sanitary waste water fitting in accordance with AS / NZS 1260.
•Depending on the cleaning and disinfection machine application, a grease trap
may be included, based on the general/location-specific regulations.
•For cleaning and disinfection machines with GiO MODULE, the maximum drain
height must be considered (see dimensional drawing).
7.1.4 Requirements for the compressed air connection
•On-site compressed air connection for respiratory protection devices (between
2 and max. 5 bar) in accordance with EN 12021.
•Specification of the authorised pressure range: operating pressure 2 to max. 5
bar.
If loud noises occur that are not typical of operation, the malfunction must be
repaired without delay. Comply with the general rules for working with com-
pressed air (wear hearing protection, if necessary).
7.1.5 Requirements for the fresh water connection
Fresh water connections and their components must be carried out in accord-
ance with local regulations, e.g. EN 1717/DIN 1988-100. The fresh water must
be of the same quality as drinking water in microbiological terms. This also
applies to processed water.
The basic model of the washer-disinfector features an air gap (type AA or AB as per
EN 1717 or EN 61770). In the case of SVGW (Switzerland) and other countries, a
type EA safety device (at least) is also required in front of the connection hose, de-
pending on the machine version. Installation components and materials must be
suitable and permitted in accordance with local regulations. A solenoid valve is inte-
grated into the cleaning and disinfection machine's fresh water pipe. This, together
with the leakage detector in the base drip tray in the subframe, ensures that in the
event of a leak within the machine, the fresh water inlet is shut off.
Pressure range of the fresh water supply flow pressure upstream of the solenoid valve:
•Machines with air gap or pressure booster pump:
60 –500 kPa (0.6 –5 bar)
•Machines with a safety device to prevent backflow:
250 –500 kPa (2.5 –5 bar)
Maximum pressure
•Do not exceed maximum pressure of 500 kPa (5 bar).
Measures to ensure correct water pressure:
•If the minimum flow pressure is too low, increase the pressure using a pressure
booster pump.
•If the maximum pressure is exceeded, limit the pressure using a pressure regu-
lator.
Other measures:
•Ensure that no foreign iron particles can enter the appliance via the fresh water
connection. The same also applies for contamination by other metal particles
(e.g. copper shavings). Corresponding instructions are contained in the assem-
bly plan.
•A dirt trap must be fitted in the fresh water supply to protect the solenoid valve.
•After the washer-disinfector has been unused for longer periods of time, drain
the connection pipe and clean it before placing the machine in operation again.
•When replacing an old machine with a new one, make sure that the existing
feed hose is exchanged for the new feed hose supplied with the machine.

7.1.6 Requirements to the electrical connection
Warning
Danger to life from electric shock
Contact with live electrical parts can lead to serious injury or death.
•Work at or repairs to the electrical system must be conducted by a qualified
electrician who complies with the electrotechnical rules.
•Disconnect the machine from the power supply before working on the electrical
system. To do this, turn the local mains switch to OFF and ensure that it can't
be switched back on again.
Note
The wiring diagram is located behind the front panel of the cleaning and disinfection
machine. This must remain in the cleaning and disinfection machine!
The rating plate with the electrical connected values is located inside the front
panel.
Other dangers Danger of death by electric shock: contact with live electrical parts can lead to seri-
ous injury or death.
Who may connect it? The cleaning and disinfection machine must be connected by a (MEIKO authorised)
electrician in accordance with the locally applicable norms and regulations.
Local earth wire system
The electrical safety of this machine is only ensured if it is connected to a properly
installed protective conductor system. It is very important to verify this fundamental
safety feature. If in doubt, have the building wiring checked by an electrician.
Voltage and frequency The machine may only be operated with the data provided on the rating plate(see
chapter “Type label” on page 13).
Power cable/fixed connection:
Recommended connection with protective equipotential bonding
The machine and accessory appliances are intended for permanent connection to
the locally available power supply and the locally available protective equipotential
bonding and have been tested accordingly before being brought to market.
A 5-pole terminal strip (L1, L2, L3, N, PE) must be used for connection to a three-
phase current.
Electricity supply without a neutral wire (N): When connecting to three-phase cur-
rent, use a 4-pole clamping strip (L1, L2, L3, PE).
Wire colours: live wire L1 = black/1, L2 = brown/2, L3 = grey/3, neutral wire N =
blue/4, protective earth conductor PE = green-yellow
Alternative connection without protective equipotential bonding
The operator can decide at his/her own discretion and under his/her own responsi-
bility to connect the electrical supply using customer resources in collaboration with
a professional electrician:
1. Fixed connection without protective equipotential bonding
2. Plug connection according to EN 60309 (CEE plug connection)

Note
Where discharge currents exceed 10 mA, the use of an RCD/FI is not recom-
mended. False alarms restrict machine availability.
MEIKO expressly excludes any liability for damages caused by improper connection
of the machine.
This includes any work in connection with services due to said connection, e.g. pro-
cessing complaints or claims due to:
•Triggered RCD/FI
•Automatic shut-down of the supply when consistency is lost in the protective
earth conductor (EN 60204-1 Chap. 8.2.8.c)
Local mains isolator The power supply must be fused in accordance with the regulations and a lockable
mains isolator provided in the local electrical installation.
If an unearthed neutral conductor (N) is used with three-phase current, the mains
isolator must have 4 poles (with alternating current 2 poles).
If the neutral wire (N) is not earthed, you must use a 4-pole mains switch. Mains
power cables must be oil-resistant, shielded, flexible cables no lighter than an
H07RN-F cable.
Local fuse protection The machine must be fused appropriately for the rated current shown on the de-
scriptive plaque. The electrical connection must be fused as a separately fused cir-
cuit (final circuit). Take note of the connection variant.
The requirements for limiting voltage changes, fluctuations and flicker in accordance
with DIN EN 61000-3-11 for the TopClean 60 M2 cleaning and disinfection machine
are fulfilled if the network has a current-carrying capacity of ≥ 100 A.
Protective equipotential bonding
The screw for the potential equalisation
is located on the back of the machine
near the media connections.
The potential equalisation connection must be carried out in accordance with the
requirements of the local electricity supply companies and all applicable local regula-
tions (in Germany VDE 0100 Part 540). Incorporate the machine and any conductive
substructures and table systems into the local potential equalisation system.
