Total Protection

The specialized airflow system disperses air evenly over the supply and exhaust HEPA filters, minimizes vibration transfer, and eliminates potential leaks by surrounding the positive pressure chamber with negative pressure.

The BSC cabinet design regulates air velocity through HEPA filters and apportions the downflow air across the work surface to create a containment zone. Negative pressure plenums and aerodynamically shaped cabinet surfaces capture airborne contaminants before they can enter the work area.

High Performance Airflow

Simplified Controls

The microprocessor controller provides continuous supervision of all cabinet functions. Universal icon touchpad buttons simplify one-handed access to on/off and alarm/monitoring system.

An ergonomically sloped front cabinet profile places work in close proximity to the user, improving comfort and minimizing the stress of repetitive motion. Uniform interior lighting and a glare resistant front sash optimizes human interface. These features extend productivity and throughput performed on the work surface.

Ease of Use

Low Cost of Ownership

The supply air plenum shape and an electronically commutated motor design with automatic feedback control work together to extend filter life. Front filter access permits authorized certifiers to change filters with safety and efficiency.

The front-access supply and exhaust HEPA filters are designed to capture particulates with 99.99% efficiency for 0.3 microns. A closed-cell peripheral gasket surrounds the filter housing to prevent particulate bypass and escape to the work area or laboratory.

High Capacity Filtration

The Panasonic Class II, Type A2 Biological Safety Cabinet (BSC) offers a combination of cabinet design and filtration systems to protect person-nel, the work product and the environment from biological particulates. The BSC is engineered for work with low to moderate risk organisms that pose a biohazard concern. True laminar airflow with a constant face velocity airflow creates a performance envelope within and throughout the work surface to minimize or eliminate contamination.

6-foot Class II, Type A2 BSC

Design Features Optimize Workspace• A shaped arm rest in front of

a recessed airfoil maintains operator safety and eliminates eddy currents at the cabinet face.

• The recessed interior tray expands the work surface safe zone to bring work closer to the user.

• A spacious, frameless front sash expands the field of vision.

• The cabinet base is adjustable for sitting or bench work depending on preference. The base stand offers ample knee room at a sitting position.
