Streamline Class II Biological Safety Cabinets

Product catalog summary
Introduction
Esco SC2 Class II Biological Safety Cabinets are designed to provide optimal performance and a safe working environment, monitored by the Sentinel™ Delta control system. The ergonomic design includes angled front and glass side windows.

Containment and Protection
The cabinet features supply and exhaust HEPA filters for integrated protection of products, operators, and the environment. The design prevents room air from entering the work zone, maintaining product integrity. The air curtain at the front aperture ensures protection even during airflow imbalances.

Integrated Filtration System
HEPA filters offer >99.99% efficiency at 0.3 microns, meeting IEST-RP-CC001.3 and EN 1822 standards. The filters are designed to maximize surface area and durability, providing ISO Class 4 clean air and trapping biohazard particles.

User-Friendly Control System
The Sentinel Delta™ control system monitors all cabinet functions with configurable controls. It features accurate airflow sensing, variable speed controllers, and alarms for safety. An LCD display provides continuous airflow monitoring.

Standards Compliance
The cabinet complies with various international standards, including EN 12469:2000, ISO 14644.1, and UL 61010-1, ensuring high performance and safety.

Cabinet Construction
The cabinet is robustly constructed with chemical-resistant materials and features for easy cleaning and decontamination. It includes tempered glass windows and a drain pan for spill containment.

Blower Efficiency
The SC2 blower system is designed for high performance and energy efficiency, featuring a motorized impeller design that reduces noise and vibration.

Safety and Certification
Each cabinet is factory tested for electrical safety and certified to EN 12469. Documentation is maintained for each cabinet serial number.

Accessories and Options
Esco offers various accessories, including support stands, electrical outlets, service fixtures, and UV lamps, to meet specific application needs.

General Specifications
The document provides detailed specifications for models SC2-4A_ and SC2-6A_, including dimensions, airflow velocities, filter efficiencies, sound emission levels, and construction materials.

Streamline Class II Biological Safety Cabinets-1

Class II Biological Safety Cabinets Streamline Class II Biological Safety Cabinet Model SC2-4A_. Introduction Esco SC2 Class II Biological Safety Cabinets provide optimum performance which is continuously monitored and controlled by our user-friendly Sentinel™ Delta control system, allowing you, the user, a safe and reliable working environment. The angled front and glass side windows provide an ergonomic work environment for the user. the filter surface area to extend filter life and eliminate possible filter media damage by thin and sharp aluminum separators used in conventional HEPA filter construction. • The filter assembly is constructed in accordance with EN 1822 requirements. • The supply filter provides ISO Class 4 (per ISO 14644.1) clean air to the work surface in a gentle vertical laminar flow for product protection. • The supply HEPA filter and exhaust HEPA filter create a fully integrated performance envelope for product, operator and environmental protection. • The exhaust filter traps biohazard particles acquired from the work surface before air is exhausted to the room, offering personal and environmental protection. • Inflow of room air enters the front air grille to establish operator protection; room air does not enter the work zone, preventing product contamination. • The exhaust filter media is protected from mechanical damage by an integrated metal screen guard, which is absent from conventional HEPA filters. • The raised armrest prevents the operator from blocking the inflow grilles. User-Friendly Control System • The inflow velocity, downflow velocity, air flow path and intake geometry are precision tuned and tested to create an optimum air curtain at the front aperture. This curtain maintains operator and product protection even in the unlikely event of a severe inflow or downflow imbalance that would compromise protection in a conventional cabinet. • Safe - 1.2 m (4') model tested and certified to EN12469 at the Health Protection Agency, Porton Down, UK. Integrated Filtration System Independent supply and exhaust HEPA filters provide typical efficiency of >99.99% at 0.3 microns. Streamline filters meet the IESTRP-CC001.3 recommended practice for HEPA performance (USA), and EN 1822 for H13 performance (EU). • HEPA filters (per IEST-RP-CC001.3), are tested to a typical efficiency of >99.99% at 0.3 micron particles. • Modern separator-less mini-pleat filter construction maximizes The user-friendly Esco Sentinel Delta™ microprocessor-based control system, fitted in the SC2 cabinet, supervises the operation of all cabinet functions. The controls are configurable to meet user requirements. Enhanced features promote cabinet usability. • Accurate true airflow velocity sensing technology measures all critical cabinet airflow parameters allowing superior monitoring. The airflow sensor is temperature compensated to increase accuracy. • Solid state variable speed controllers offer superior control over conventional “step” controllers. • A bright, easy-to-read, LCD display provides continuous monitoring of cabinet airflow. • An additional UV-interlock ensures that the optional UV lamp is deactivated when the sash is not fully closed. • Audible and visual alarms ensure product, operator and environmental protection by alerting the user in the event of low airflow or unsafe sash positions.

A small portion of the ULPA filtered downflow enters the intake perforations at the side capture zones at a higher velocity (small blue arrows). perforations located towards the work zone front to prevent contamination of the work surface and work product. The inflow does not mix with the clean air within the cabinet work zone. Inflow air travels through a return...
