Containment and Protection

• A combination of an exhaust pre-filter, ULPA filter and activated carbon filter create a fully integrated performance envelope for operator and environmental protection.
• Inflow of room air enters the work opening to establish operator protection. The work opening is generously sized to accommodate all common types of animal cages.
• The inflow velocity, air flow path and intake geometry are precision tuned and tested to create an optimum air curtain at the front aperture.

Comfortable Ergonomic Design, Portable

• The workstation is engineered for comfort, utility value and safety.
• The integral adjustable support stand provides work surface height control.
• Ergonomic adjustable work surface height reduces fatigue, increases productivity and provides a safer work environment.
• The workstation is mobile on non-marking 125 mm (5”) wheels with locking brakes.
• When fully lowered, the workstation will fit through a standard lab door.
• The angled front profile improves reach into the work area.
• The instant-start 5000k fluorescent lamp operates on an electronic ballast to reduce heat, improve comfort and conserve energy.
• The lamp delivers uniform lighting to the work surface for greater comfort, reduced glare and improved productivity; see Technical Specifications.
• The frameless cabinet front eliminates operator’s line of sight blockage.
• A generous front opening allows for faster access into the work zone, and provides ample room for transferring of animal cages.

Integrated Filtration System

• The combination of pre-filter, ULPA filter (for allergen removal) and Nanocarb™ activated carbon filter (for odor removal) create a fully integrated envelope for operator and environment protection.
• A pre-filter captures large particles to extend the life of the main filters.
• Pre-filter can be replaced with airflow operating to minimize exposure to hazardous particulates.
• The exhaust ULPA filter provides 99.999% typical efficiency for particle sizes of 0.1 to 0.3 microns in order to remove allergens from the exhaust stream. ULPA filters meet the IESTRP-CC001.3 recommended practice for ULPA performance (USA), and EN 1822 for H14 performance (EU).
• Nanocarb™ activated carbon filter, specifically designed for removal of gaseous contaminants, reduces odors before air is returned to the laboratory.

Blower Efficiency

• The blower system is designed for high performance operation, maximum energy efficiency and minimal maintenance.
• The external rotor motor design allows for optimum cooling of the motor during extended operations and extends the motor bearing life.
• The permanently lubricated direct-drive external rotor motor/blower reduces operating costs.
• An integral blower hour meter tracks operating life for predictive maintenance planning.

Airflow

• "Blue Box" ULPA-Filtered Air
• "Red Box" Unfiltered / Potentially contaminated Air
• "Green Box" Room Air / Inflow Air

• Room air is drawn in across the front of the cabinet with an average velocity of 0.35 m/s (70 fpm).
• Air is drawn up through the cabinet's work zone and forced through the ULPA filter (>99.99% typical efficiency for 0.3 micron sized particles).
• The full work zone ceiling extraction system ensures airflow uniformity throughout the cabinet's main chamber.
• The ULPA filtered air then returns to the laboratory stripped of all airborne contaminants.

Sentinel Microprocessor Control, Alarm, Monitoring System

• The Sentinel™ microprocessor-based control system supervises operation of all workstation functions. The control panel is located on the center of the workstation, and angled down for easy access by the operator.
• Continuous monitoring of workstation airflow is displayed on a bright, easy-to read LCD panel.
• An integrated, temperature-compensated, true airflow velocity sensor provides an accurate airflow reading despite room temperature fluctuation.
• All electronic parts are contained inside a plug-and-play module that permits easy exchange if required.
• Microprocessor software updates are available for download via the Internet.
• Sentinel functions are factory set to default to ON or OFF, depending on worldwide destination and local preferences. Default settings can be user activated through the touchpad data entry access.
• Automatic start-up sequence will prepare the workstation for normal operation and advise when safe conditions are established.
• An administrator controlled PIN (Personal Identification Number) can be set to restrict access to main menu.
• The airflow alarm can be activated or deactivated depending on user preference and nature of the work.

Electrical Safety and Certification

• All components meet or exceed applicable safety requirements.
• Each workstation is individually tested for electrical safety at factory.
• Documentation specific to each workstation serial number is maintained on file.
• Available in: 220-240V AC 50Hz 1PH; 110-130V 1PH, AC 60Hz or 220-240V , AC 60Hz 1PH

Workstation Construction

• Robust construction and enhanced safety features qualify the workstation for the most demanding laboratory applications. The workstation is fully assembled and ready to install and operate when shipped.
• The interior work area is constructed of stainless steel.
• The stainless steel work surface has a large opening with fixed stainless steel "Bang Bars" to facilitate cage dumping.
• There are no screws on the front or sides to trap contaminants or complicate cleaning.
• External surfaces are coated with Isocide™ antimicrobial coating to protect against surface contamination and inhibit bacterial growth. Isocide eliminates 99.9% of surface bacteria within 24 hours of exposure.
• A 40-gallon NSF listed waste container is mounted to the work surface allowing for rapid disposal of waste materials within the work zone. The large volume container eliminates frequent disposal to improve productivity. The waste container is mobile on casters and moves with the workstation.
