The Deko 2000 is a microprocessor controlled large capacity washer thermal-disinfector. Designed for use in all medical, pharmaceutical and veterinary establishments, it has been built to withstand continual use. The Deko 2000 is available as a single door or pass-through model; an integrated dryer is also optional. The machine is constructed of stainless AISI 304 and acid-resistant AISI 316 steel, and all of the components have undergone rigorous testing. Durability, efficiency and functional versatility are the foundations of the Deko 2000's design.

Control
A microprocessor offers the choice of five different programs. Wash water temperature can be adjusted to enable the cleaning of surgical instruments, rubber and plastic goods, as well as glassware. The disinfection time and temperature are programmable from 87ºC to 93ºC and from 1 to 10 minutes, and can be altered through the use of special codes. In the event of a malfunction, a red malfunction indicator displays, and the fault indicator will show a numeric code pinpointing the problem. The door safety lock prevents the door from being opened if the set values for disinfection have not been met. It also prevents both doors of a pass-through model from being opened simultaneously; thus ensuring a separation at all times between the clean and unclean areas of the department. A chart recorder, printer and cycle counter are available as options.

Construction
The Deko 2000 has rotating wash arms and an automatic connection for spray racks, facilitating the injection of water into instruments, hoses and bottles. The design of the removable wash arms ensures thorough contact with all items being processed and all parts of the wash chamber. The design also allows for easy cleaning of the spray holes. The sliding shelves mounted on the sides of the wash chamber are fully removable allowing for a diversity of loading options. Detergent dosage is carried out automatically by a pump and can be easily regulated for agents with varying concentrations. An extra detergent pump, wetting agent pump and distilled water feed are available as options.

Programs
The Deko 2000 comes equipped with three standard washing programs; two other programs can be utilized as needed. The content of programs can be easily customized to meet special needs. Depending on the number of selected phases, the programs run between 10 and 60 minutes. In models with an integrated drying unit drying time and temperature are regulated independently.
