Biosafety Cabinet Class II Type A2
Precision | Performance | Partnership. We design, manufacture and supply Class 2 Biosafety Cabinets Type A2 for laboratory and research applications.
These Type A2 Class II Biological Safety Cabinets have an open front design provided with negative pressure generation module. Type A2 cabinets are typically used for biosafety levels 1 through 3 and are suitable for work with chemicals, as long as vapors are not hazardous and will not interfere with the work when recirculated. Cabinets protect from contamination of the works, experiment or process from outside contaminants.
The ergonomic internal design, the airflow aerodynamics, the built-in safety devices and the advanced level of construction, ensure the highest performances at the most stringent safety levels, as specified by International standards.
Salient Features
Engineered with unidirectional airflow, HEPA filtration, personnel, product, and environment protection.
- A front access opening with carefully maintained inward air flow.
- Internal blower maintains minimum average fpm at face opening.
- Approximately 70% of air is recirculated through HEPA filter back to work area, 30% exhausted through HEPA filter.
- Room air enters through pre filter and HEPA filter as vertical unidirectional airflow.
- Negative pressure maintains inward air flow in chamber.
- Max safe door opening height: 8" during operation, 15" while cleaning / material loading & unloading.
- Work table at a height of 760 mm for comfortable sitting position.
- Aerodynamic airflow grills prevent blockage.
- High efficiency pre filter increases HEPA filter life.
- Manufactured as per NSF/ANSI 49 USA standard, EN 12469 European guidelines and ISO 14644-1.
- Noise level is less than 62 dB ±3dB.
