Class II, Type A2 Biological Safety Cabinets - Airstream Reliant

Our Biological Safety Cabinets are containment units suitable for the preparation of low to moderate risk agents when there is a need for protection of the product, personnel, and environment. We offer a ranges of cabinets depending on the researchers needs and budged. All of our biological safety cabinets use ULPA filters to treat exhaust air. ULPA filters have are tested to a typical effiecency of >99.999% for 0.1 to 0.3 micron particles; these provide better filtration capability than conventional HEPA filters that have a typical efficiency of >99.999% for 0.3 micron particles.

Class II Type A2 units can be used to handle minute quantities of volatile toxic chemicals and trace amounts of radionucleotides when thimble ducted. Use this option if chemical vapor re-circulation into the work zone is permitted. Compare your requirements below to find the correct Biological Safety Cabinet for your lab.

Description

Protect lab personnel, sample and the environment with the Airstream® Reliant Class II Type A2 Biosafety Cabinets. The Airstream® Reliant is designed with energy efficiency, robustness, comfort and ergonomics.

Best in Filtration: Uses ULPA (Ultra Low Penetration Air) filters which operate at a typical efficiency of 99.999% which is ten times the contamination protection over conventional HEPA filters.

Easy Cleaning:  The work space is single piece coved stainless steel without any screws or connectors.  The wall is single piece stainless steel with easy to reach service fixtures and outlets.

Extra Protection: Isocide™ powder coating finish prevents microbial/bacterial growth in the exterior and interior.

Operator Comfort: Raised arm rest which helps prevents grille blocking while providing operators with comfortable working position.

Key Benefits:

  • Easy to use analog switches and UV timer
  • Energy and Space Saving
  • Analog Night Setback Mode
  • Large Safety Margin
  • Ergonomic and comfortable low noise
