WHAT IS A BIOSAFETY CABINET? A Biosafety Cabinet (BSC) is an enclosed laboratory A BSC must supply the necessary level of safety at an workspace for safely handling potentially contaminated affordable cost of ownership. Meeting those criteria as or other hazardous materials requiring a predefined effectively as possible depends on the cabinet’s design level of biosafety. By combining unidirectional airflow and components. NuAire’s unique HEPEXTM Zero Leak from the top of the workspace with air inflow from the Airflow system evenly disperses downflow air across the room, a biosafey cabinet maintains...

YOUR SAFETY IS OUR NUMBER ONE PRIORITY Our HEPEXTM Zero Leak Airflow system evenly disperses air across the supply filter, which minimizes vibration transfer, reduces noise, and eliminates potential leaks by surrounding the positive pressure plenum with negative pressure. Our Commitment to Safety does not just stop at simply Automatic Airflow Compensation: NuAire’s Ultra-High meeting the industry standards. Every NuAire product Efficiency DC ECM Motor will automatically adjust speed goes through a stringent series of checks and balances to maintain consistent airflow settings based on readings...

QUALITY - NOTHING IS BUILT LIKE A NUAIRE MODEL The Core of a NuAire Biosafety Cabinet is a Pressure-tight Monolithic Shell [A] of 100% stainless steel; it is constructed to meet the design, performance, and cleanability standards of NSF/ANSI 49 and EN12469. This monolithic design eliminates any leaks and structural weakness commonly found in cabinets utilizing a multi-piece shell and relying on rivets, gaskets, and/or silicone coating to secure joints. The NuAire design is a single sheet of type 304 stainless steel. A stainless steel wrap [B] makes up the walls of the cabinet. Stainless steel...

WHAT CLASS DO YOU NEED? The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention What Class and Type You Need Will Ultimately Depend (CDC) Classifies All Biosafety Cabinets into Three (3) on the Type of Work You Plan on Conducting Inside Classes. Class I biosafety cabinets rely on a minimum Your BSC. Roughly 90% of all biological safety cabinets inward airflow velocity of 75 fpm [0.38 m/s] to provide installed globally are Class II Type A2, however, there personnel and environmental protection. Class II BSCs are several fundamental design differences within the provide product, personnel, and environmental...

(Containment Ventilated Enclosure) Class I Biological Safety Cabinets are Generally Designed for Handling and Disposing Low to Moderate Risk Agents while Providing Personnel, but No Product, Protection by pulling ambient air past the operator and through the work zone. This creates an air barrier that prevents work zone contaminants from migrating into your lab. The contaminated air exits through the cabinet’s HEPA filtered exhaust system and then recirculates back into the room or continues to be exhausted outside through your facility's HVAC system. All NuAire Class I biological safety cabinets...

CONTROL PANELS AEROMAX On/Off Blower The AeroMax™ Control System is a simplified control On/Off Outlets Airflow Indicator system that monitors and displays airflow status via our single PressureFlowTM sensor - a specialized digital pressure transducer. The control panel also notifies lab workers with both visual and audio alarms if the unit’s airflow pressure departs significantly from its set point. The user interface is operated through a series of buttons and LED indicators, which control the unit’s single DC ECM motor/blower, UV light, and outlets. On/Off Lights Alarm Silence Visual Alarm...
