Operator, Product and Environmental protection against Microbiological Agents and Chemical Fumes

Incorporating all the latest design features available on Esco''s NSF-listed Labculture® Class II Type A2 biosafety cabinet, Esco Labculture® Class II Type B2 biosafety cabinets are designed to provide operator, product and environmental protection in experiments where recirculation of filtered air is prohibited, probably due to the presence of chemical fumes emitted during the process.

Chemical fumes cannot be captured by the filters and will be harmful to the operator if re-circulated in the laboratory space. Hence, Class II Type B2 cabinets have to be ducted to an external blower for total exhaust. Similar in design to the Class II Type A2, the cabinet is suitable for experiments involving general microbiological work with agents assigned to biological safety levels 1, 2, or 3.

• Unique Esco Dynamic Chamber™ plenum.
• Negative pressure plenum surrounds supply positive pressure plenum; no fabric bags are used.
• Long-life supply ULPA filter (per IEST-RP-CC001.3) with >99.999% efficiency for particle size between 0.1 to 0.3 microns.
• Angled supply filter matches cabinet profile to achieve best downflow uniformity.
• Esco Sentinel™ microprocessor.
• Frameless, shatterproof sash is easier to clean.
• Ergonomically angled front improves reach and comfort.
• Actual work access height is 45 mm (1.8”) higher than tested sash opening to provide additional work space.
• Removable one-piece work surface simplifies cleaning.
• Raised airflow grille maintains safety by preventing blockage.
• Optional UV lamp is located behind control panel away from line of sight. (Does not apply to 1.8 m / 6'' models.)
• Esco Isocide™ antimicrobial coating on all painted surfaces minimizes contamination.
• Enhanced side-capture zones optimize containment.
• Work area on Esco 0.9 meter (3'') cabinet is equivalent to work area offered on larger 1.2 meter (4'') conventional cabinet.
