Dual Chamber Washing with Six Levels: Capable of cleaning a large volume of glassware, the 1800 LXA provides increased workflow and output. You can load 6 independent racks on a choice of 8 levels as a result of its innovative design. The Lancer 1800 LXA freestanding glassware washer dryer is typically found in large centralised facilities or in laboratories with large non-standard sized items. Thousands of glassware items a day presents no problem for the 1800 LXA chamber that can wash and dry on 6 levels simultaneously. Racks are interchangeable between any of the 6 levels allowing many loading options. It is also ideal for very large vessels - 20 to 100 litres (5 - 26 gallons).

Direct injection cleaning, HEPA filtered injector drying
The 1800 LXA provides injection washing and drying on one to six levels simultaneously, delivering the wash/rinse solutions into narrow-necked glassware to provide for efficient and effective cleaning. 8 Washing positions are available and adjustable for the upper levels and provide for greater wash load flexibility. Low profile, rear manifold connections provide wash/rinse solution to the racks, maximizing usable rack surface, which is often reduced by common center manifold designs. 100% of the chamber volume is then available for an unbeaten washing capacity in this size/range of glassware washer dryer. HEPA filtered chamber and direct injection drying, adjustable by 1º C increments, reduces cycle time by drying glassware and labware inside and out. This fast turnaround of glassware increases productivity by reducing the waiting time for glassware.

Ease of Use
The 1800 LXA features microprocessor controls with 4 pre-set programs for chemistry glassware, bacteriology/virology (high temperature), stubborn stains (agar) and volumetric glassware (lower temperature). For other applications the 1800 LXA offers 36 additional programs that can be modified to fit any application. These custom programs offer the user the ability to easily adjust cycle parameters for program phases, temperatures, phase times and chemical dosing. The system control panel is user friendly with a 7 button keypad and 2 ½ inch LCD interface. Self-diagnostic software provides visual and audible alarms to quickly alert the user in the event of a malfunction, displaying the error and allowing the owner to avoid costly service calls. Additionally with on-board storage capacity, the 1800 LXA provides added safety.

Unbeaten cleaning and drying results
Lancer’s superior hydraulic design maximizes flow and pressure with a single, direct fluid
path and no intermediate accessories.Additionally, racks are held in place by the door to ensure positive connection without the loss of pressure and flow that is common with other designs. Top and bottom spray arms provide thorough coverage for the interior and exterior of glassware. Water rinses are programmable for hot, cold and hot/cold DI water. These features allow for maximum use of the space within the chamber and ensure cleanliness. This design enhances full interchangeability of the racks between levels, providing further flexibility and reducing the number or racks needed.

Superior construction
The Lancer 1800 LXA washer is built to the highest standards. With AISI 316 L stainless steel and electronically welded chamber (under Argon protection) and door, the unit is fully enclosed on all 6 sides with AISI 304 L stainless steel to protect components and wiring. Maximum durability of the washer components ensures a long life span. Additionally, the 1800 LXA is insulated with synthetic rubber based, closed cell foam to guard against heat lost and reduce noise levels creating lower utility costs and a better user experience in the lab.

Inventory systems
Having the right rack or accessory to fit your cleaning application is key to ensuring cleanliness and increasing productivity. With this in mind, Lancer provides versatile rack systems to accommodate all types of glassware and laboratory items. These rack systems include a wide range of accessories with various configurations of sizes and quantities of jets or baskets to handle all types of glass and lab ware from bottles to pipettes. Racks can be interchanged between levels to achieve further flexibility.
