Laboratory Glassware Washer (Process Monitorable) Overview
The Laboratory Glassware Washer (Process Monitorable) (model AWD510) from Yamato Scientific is a benchtop glassware washer built for high-throughput cleaning of test tubes, flasks, and beakers. Color-coded interior lighting tracks each wash stage, while temperatures reach 45–93°C across the rinse and final-wash cycles. LabSupplies.com supplies this unit as an authorized dealer.
Stainless steel SUS304 forms the washing tank, sized W500 × D480 × H480 mm. Upper, middle, and lower rotary jet nozzles deliver even spray coverage across a two-tier sliding rack. A large double-glazed window stays cool during hot-water disinfection and keeps the interior visible throughout the run. Electronic door locking prevents accidental opening mid-cycle.
Operation runs on a 220V supply through a 4.3-inch touch LCD that stores nine programs. Effluent cools to 60°C or below before discharge, removing the need for heat-resistant piping. Manufactured in Japan, the washer weighs 280 lbs and measures 36 × 36 × 62 in. Yamato Scientific holds ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 14001:2015 certification.

- Two-tier sliding rack: handles a maximum washing volume of 10 kg upper plus 15 kg lower, or 15 kg single-stage with the optional rack.
- 4.3-inch touch LCD: stores nine programs and runs the full pre-wash, wash, rinse, and final-wash sequence with adjustable 1–60 minute cycles.
- Cool double-glazed window: stays cool during hot-water disinfection while keeping the interior in clear view.

How to Choose the Right Glassware Washer
Match the washer to your throughput, the items you clean, and your site power before specifying a unit. Each axis below changes the purchase decision for a lab.
- Capacity: the two-stage configuration holds 10 kg upper plus 15 kg lower, so confirm your daily glassware volume against rack capacity.
- Temperature range: pre-wash and wash run 45–80°C while rinse and final wash reach 45–93°C — verify the range covers your disinfection protocol.
- Control type: a 4.3-inch touch LCD with nine storable programs suits labs that repeat validated cycles and need process monitoring.
- Voltage: this unit requires a 220V supply, so check available circuits before installation.
- Footprint: benchtop dimensions of 36 × 36 × 62 in and 280 lbs determine bench or floor placement and access for service.
- Safety: electronic door locking and effluent cooled to 60°C or below protect operators and simplify drain requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions
What temperature range does the AWD510 reach?
The AWD510 runs 45–80°C during pre-wash and wash, then 45–93°C during rinse and final wash. Cycles at 90°C or above are limited to 10 minutes, and washing time is adjustable from 1 to 60 minutes.
What is the maximum washing capacity?
Capacity is 10 kg on the upper tier plus 15 kg on the lower tier in the two-stage setup. A single-stage configuration with the optional rack holds 15 kg. The washing tank measures W500 × D480 × H480 mm.
What voltage and power supply does the unit require?
The AWD510 operates on a 220V supply. Confirm an available 220V circuit at the installation site before delivery.
What is the washing tank made of?
The washing tank is stainless steel SUS304. Upper, middle, and lower rotary jet nozzles distribute spray evenly across the two-tier sliding rack.
Does the AWD510 need heat-resistant drain piping?
No. Effluent is cooled to 60°C or below before discharge, so heat-resistant piping is not required for the drain connection.
Can the washer clean pipettes?
No. The AWD510 is designed for glassware such as test tubes, flasks, and beakers, but pipettes are excluded. Liquid detergent dispenses automatically, or powder detergent can be supplied manually.
