PW 6243 [EL WEK]
Hygiene washing machine, electrically heated
Barrier machine for retirement and care homes as well as hospitals.

Drum volume 240l, load capacity 24.0kg
Wide variety of programmes - special disinfection programme
Safe disinfection
Special disinfection programmes provide the basis for reliable hygiene.
Gentle laundry care thanks to the Miele honeycomb drum
Honeycomb drum
The sculptured structure of the Miele honeycomb drum allows garments to glide gently on a thin film of water.
Particularly efficient - low water and energy consumption
Low consumption values
Economical and efficient: Miele Professional commercial laundry machines impress with low consumption values.
Perfect spinning results – residual moisture 46 %^*, g factor360
Maximum spin efficiency
A high g-factor guarantees that water is thoroughly spun out of the laundry. This has an optimum effect on the subsequent drying process. Due to the reduced residual moisture, the drying time is shortened considerably and drying costs are minimal.
Residual moisture specification relates to a hot rinse during the last rinse cycle.
