Extran® AP for Machine Cleaning in Laboratory Washers

Extran® AP were developed in collaboration with leading appliance manufacturers of lab washers and tested for suitability. These lab cleaning detergents have high solubility in water and produce very little foam with minimal residue. To neutralize alkali residues, an acid rinse should be used after every main wash cycle, such as the neutralizing agents:

  • Extran® AP 21 acidic with phosphoric acid
  • Extran® AP 22 acidic with citric acid

Extran® 5l Canisters for Laboratory Washers

This convenient Extran® canister is placed into the drawer of the machine dosing unit and is directly connected to the lab washer so that the risk of direct contact to the cleaner is minimized. Product and safety information are easily visible on the top label, with unique color coding according to pH and blank space for quick documentation of GLP handling dates.
