or rest objects on it. This could
cause the machine to tip and be
damaged.
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
temperatures 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
ensure 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
observed to avoid damage to the
IR 6001 and the loads being cleaned.
Use only cleaning agents
formulated for special processes
and approved by Miele for use with this
machine. Use of unsuitable cleaning
agents could adversely affect the load
or the machine. See the enclosed
pamphlet for recommended
detergents.
When a chemical additive is
recommended, the manufacturer of
the machine takes no responsibility for
the effect of the chemical on the
material 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
operation with water and cleaning
agents only. Organic solvents must not
be used in the machine, as the danger
of explosion exists under certain
circumstances. Although this is not the
case with all organic solvents, other
problems could arise with their use, for
example damage to rubber and
synthetic materials.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
7

In critical applications where
stringent requirements have to be
met, it is strongly recommended that all
process 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
processes), a regular quality control
test should be carried out by the user to
ensure that required standards of
cleanliness 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
solutions 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
circulation pump, or cause contact
corrosion.
Empty any containers before
loading 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
indirect, ensure that the waterborne
residues do not exceed statutory limits.
Only equipment made or
authorized by Miele should be
connected to this machine. Consult
Miele on the type and application of
such equipment.

Applications
The Industrial Cleaner is designed for
specialized sectors of industrial high
technology production, where a
consistently high standard of cleaning
is required, 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 remaining.
The machine can be programmed, and
a variety of baskets and inserts used,
depending on specific needs.
Special cleaning programs can be
written for individual applications.
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
directed into an external holding tank
and be fed back into the machine for
the following 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.
Description of the machine
9

MCU-control
The Industrial Cleaner is controlled by a
micro computer unit. This ensures
maintenance of wash process
standards 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
example, time, temperature, water
quality, dispensing to various liquid
detergents and additives. This enables
the user to adapt the process to
individual requirements. 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.

The machine is supplied as standard
with an automatic spring-loaded
coupling for either the upper basket or
a mobile unit.
Make sure the spring loaded
coupling engages correctly when a
basket, injector or mobile unit is
inserted into the machine, it should
be 3/8" higher than the water inlet in
the roof of the cabinet. If it is not,
adjust the adapter by:
^Loosening the lock ring.
^Pushing up the adapter (3/8" higher
than the water connection inlet) and
re-tightening the lock ring.
Removing the upper basket
When the lower basket is being used
alone for large items such as solder
frames, the large spray arm supplied
with the machine should be attached
the water inlet on the roof of the
cabinet.
^Remove the upper basket by pulling
it forward to the stop position, lifting it
up to the front, and then out of the
wash cabinet.
^Unscrew the small upper spray arm
retainer and remove the small upper
spray arm.
^Install the large upper spray arm with
its threaded spindle flange.

Electronics
Populated circuit boards and solder
frames require cleaning that takes into
account product specifications and the
soldering processes used.
Circuit boards
Circuit boards can be cleaned of resin
residues in the machine. The results
depend on the type of flux used. For
individual application, Miele
recommends consultation with cleaning
technology advisors. Cleaning is
generally performed with tenside
additives (0.5 - 0.7% at 149 °F - 167 °F
(65 °C - 75 °C)). The wash/rinse
process consists of several stages and
purified ion-free water is used
throughout (DI-water).
For surface mount or hybrid technology,
the use of water soluble soft solder
paste is recommended. A high
standard of cleaning can then be
achieved by using water and variable
temperature washes. This also applies
to integrated circuit boards. The time
for a cleaning program is approx. 30
minutes for the wash phase and 40 - 50
minutes for the drying phase,
depending on the structural complexity
and volume of the load.
Baskets designed for circuit boards are
made of plastic coated stainless steel.
These are the O 500-10 top basket and
U 500-10 bottom basket, which
together can hold 73 PCBs.

Solder frames
Depending on the type of soil, an
alkaline cleaning agent at a low
concentration of 0.3 - 0.5%, a
neutralization agent or wetting agent
(0.1%), is used.
With aluminum solder frames, using
de-ionized water (either throughout or
in the final rinse, depending on quality
standard required) reduces the risk of
damage to the material, which may be
adversely affected by non-purified
water after prolonged use.
Example: 8 solder frames (L 18 11/16" x
W 16 29/32" x D 1 31/32") (L 475 mm x
W 430 mm x D 45 - 50 mm) can be
cleaned and dried in the machine
within 30 minutes if operated with a hot
water intake of 149 °F (65 °C).
