Product catalog summary
Product Overview: The Purair BIO biological safety cabinet is designed to protect individuals, the environment, and products from biological particulates. It features a single EC blower motor for low energy consumption and cost-effective operation. The cabinet meets NSF/ANSI 49 standards for Class II, Type A2 laminar flow cabinets.
Design Features: Key features include a quiet, energy-efficient EC Brushless DC Motor, a standard control system with membrane-style switches, and a patented Quick Access HEPA Filtration System. The double-wall plenum design prevents contamination from leaks, and the ergonomic design reduces operator discomfort. Safety features include a safety interlock and HEPA filters tested to >99.99% efficiency for 0.3 micron particles.
Performance & Selection: The Purair BIO offers high efficiency with HEPA filters providing 99.99% efficiency at 0.3 microns. It is self-contained, eliminating the need for external venting. The cabinet is available in four standard sizes and is portable for easy relocation.
Containment & Filtration: The cabinet maintains a 70% recirculation to 30% exhaust airflow ratio to ensure operator protection. The HEPA filtration system provides clean air in a vertical laminar flow pattern, trapping biohazardous particles before air is exhausted into the room.
