Class I and III Microbiological Safety Cabinets

Classification Class I
An open front direct exhaust protective cabinet through which very stable air is drawn, enabling work on groups II and III organisms to be carried out safely. The cabinet incorporates a high efficiency particle filter and provides a high degree of operator protection.

Classification Class III
A totally enclosed cabinet maintained at all times under negative pressure with both incoming and exhaust air passing through the H.E.P.A filters. Work is carried out using rubber gloves attached to ports. This arrangement provides the best operator protection when handling dangerous pathogens in groups III or IV.

Construction
Cabinets are constructed from 3mm thick mild steel or grade 316 stainless steel with a white Epoxy coated / stove enamelled exterior.

Filters
The filters used are leak tested H.E.P.A filters providing a guaranteed minimum filtering efficiency of 99.999% for particles with an average diameter of 0.3 micron or larger when tested to BS3928 sodium chloride flame test. The filters are mounted on a double seal surface of the u-profile thus ensuring a hermatic seal between the filter and the cabinet. In normal use the filter has a service life of more than 5 years.

Safety
Bolt on sealing panels / glove ports give full operator protection during fumigation and when working under sterile conditions.

Lighting
Cabinets have large vision panels which give a clear internal view. External lighting gives a minimum 1000 lux on the work surface.
Instrumentation
Fully protected instrumentation is located in a seperate cubicle, so that electrical servicing can take place without opening the cabinet. Air velocity and audio visual alarms indicate when the cabinets deviate from specification. Supply 220/240 volt 50Hz 13 amp.

Optional Items
Formalin vapouriser allows cabinet sterilisation under negative pressure.

Class III Optional Items
A choice of side entry doors, transfer ports or dunk tanks to allow instruments and materials to pass into the cabinet without breaking the integrity of the unit.
