2: Prerequisites Before you install the cabinet, you need to prepare the site for installation. Examine the location where you intend to install it. You must be certain that the area is level and of solid construction. In addition, a dedicated source of electrical power must be located near the installation site.
2: Prerequisites Location Requirements The cabinet should be located away from traffic patterns, doors, fans, ventilation registers, fume hoods and any other air-handling devices that could disrupt its airflow patterns. All windows in the room should remain closed. Figure 2-1 shows the preferred location for the cabinet.
CAN BE CONFIGURED TO SIGNAL THE EXHAUST BLOWER TO TURN ON WHEN THE LOGIC+’s BLOWER IS ON. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION, CONTACT LABCONCO’S PRODUCT SERVICE DEPARTMENT. AS AN ALTERNATIVE, A REMOTE ELECTRICAL SWITCH FOR THE EXHAUST BLOWER CAN BE INSTALLED NEAR THE LOGIC+.
On 100 and 115 VAC models, both internal electrical outlets are protected by a ground fault interrupter circuit (GFIC). Labconco does not recommend plugging the cabinet into a GFIC outlet. Electrical outlets in the cabinet are restricted to 5 amps (115 Volt models) or 2 amps (230 Volt models) maximum current.
2: Prerequisites Service Line Requirements All utility service lines should be ¼ inch O.D., brass, copper, or stainless steel, and equipped with an easily accessible shut-off valve. If the service line pressure exceeds 40 PSI, it must be equipped with a pressure regulator to reduce the line pressure.
3: Getting Started Now that the installation is properly prepared, you are ready to inspect, install, and certify the Logic+ Biosafety Cabinet. This Section covers how to: Unpack and move the cabinet Install the cabinet Connect the electrical supply source ...
Note: United States Interstate Commerce Commission rules require that claims be filed with the delivery carrier within fifteen (15) days of delivery. Do not return goods without the prior authorization of Labconco. Unauthorized returns will not be accepted. If the cabinet was damaged in transit, you must file a claim directly with the freight carrier.
3: Getting Started Preparing the Cabinet for Operation Installation instructions (Labconco P/N 1056801) are attached to the sash of the cabinet. If these instructions are missing or unclear, contact Product Service at (800) 821-5525 or +1 (816) 333-8811. The following are located in a box (see Fig.

3: Getting Started Using the Optional Vacu-Pass Cord & Cable Portal There must be enough clearance to pass the cord or cable between the cabinet’s exterior dress panel and any obstruction. Note: Some Vacu-Pass components and the cord or cable passing through it may become contaminated during use of the cabinet.
3: Getting Started Installing the Drain Valve In order to prevent damage during shipping, the drain valve assembly has not been installed. If desired, the valve should be installed after the cabinet is in its final location. To install the valve assembly, follow these steps: Note: The work surface is heavy.
*These tests are user comfort related tests and may be omitted at the user’s or certifier’s discretion. If you have any questions regarding certification agencies or help locating one, contact Labconco’s Product Service Department at (800) 821-5525 or +1 816-333- 8811.
4: Performance Features and Safety Precautions All Cabinets operate using the following principles: Filtration and retention of particulates by High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filter(s) Laminar airflow Directional airflow The major components in a cabinet are: The HEPA filter(s) or optional ULPA filters ...
4: Performance Features and Safety Precautions Note: The HEPA filter media is very fragile. DO NOT touch the media. If you think the media of a HEPA filter is damaged, DO NOT USE THE CABINET. Have the HEPA filter integrity tested by a certifier before using the cabinet. Note: HEPA Filters are only effective against particulate material.
4: Performance Features and Safety Precautions Laminar Airflow Laminar airflow is defined as the movement of a body of air in a single direction, with a uniform velocity. In practice, the laminar downflow of air in the cabinet captures any aerosol generated in the work area of the cabinet, and directs it to the HEPA filters.
4: Performance Features and Safety Precautions Directional Airflow Directional airflow also plays a key role in cabinet performance. Air is drawn into the front of the cabinet at the front grille. This “curtain” of air makes it more difficult for aerosols to escape out of the work area of the cabinet and into the outside environment.
The motor utilizes Labconco’s exclusive Constant Airflow Profile (CAP) program to deliver a consistent volume of air, throughout the life of the cabinet.
4: Performance Features and Safety Precautions Cabinet Grilles, Ductwork and Air Balance Controls The location, size, and pattern of the grilles at the front and rear of the work area affect cabinet containment and performance. Note: Do not block or obstruct the grilles of the cabinet. The internal ductwork of the cabinet conveys the air from the work area to the blower, and then from the blower to the filters.
HEPA filter during installation or normal operation. If you suspect that a HEPA filter has been damaged, DO NOT use the cabinet; contact a local certification agency or Labconco at (800) 821-5525 or +1 (816) 333-8811 for re- certification information.

4: Performance Features and Safety Precautions Proper operation of the cabinet depends largely upon its location and the operator’s work habits. Consult the Installation and Normal Operation sections of this manual for further details. Avoid direct exposure of plastic or coated materials to ultraviolet (UV) radiation. Never bypass the UV safety interlock that only allows the UV light to work when the sash is closed.
5: Using the Cabinet System Reset Switch The cabinet has a system reset switch for resetting its microprocessors. The switch is located on the front of the electronics module, on top of the cabinet, as shown in Figure 5-1. Ensure that the switch is in the “ON” (up) position before attempting to operate the cabinet.
5: Using The Cabinet Information Center The Information Center is an LCD display located on the right side wall at eye level. When the blower is started, the “Blower Starting” screen will be displayed, as shown in Figure 5-2. After approximately 30 seconds, the display will switch to normal operation.
5: Using The Cabinet Alarm Screens Power Loss Alarm The cabinet has lost power. Press [OK] on the Keypad to acknowledge that a power loss occurred. Figure 5-4a Figure 5-4b Sash Height Alarm The sash is not in the proper operating height. Return sash to proper working height.

5: Using The Cabinet Operating the Sliding Sash The counterbalanced, anti-racking sash mechanism requires only a few pounds of force to move the sash up or down. You can open or close the sash smoothly with one or two hands positioned on either handle. The sash position alarm and safety interlock system senses the sash position and acts appropriately.
5: Using The Cabinet Using the Cabinet Keypad The keypad of the cabinet is shown in Figure 5-6. Take a moment to familiarize yourself with the buttons, their locations and functions. Also familiarize yourself with the display located on the right side wall. The display will report system functions, such as filter capacity, timer displays, alarm or error messages, as well as icons that illuminate when cabinet functions such as the light and blower are operational.

5: Using The Cabinet Navigating UV Parameters For models equipped with the optional UV light, the cabinet has an integral UV light maintenance system. It allows you to monitor how many hours the lamp has been on, to reset the UV lamp hourmeter, and to define how many hours you want the UV lamp to operate before receiving a reminder to replace it.
5: Using The Cabinet Timer Operation The timer button allows activation of an interval (countdown) or elapsed (stopwatch) timer. The timers cannot be operated simultaneously. To access the timer menu, press [Timer] anytime during normal operation (from the Home Screen). The main timer menu is displayed (Fig. 5-8a). Select Interval Stopwatch Timer, then [OK/MUTE].
5: Using The Cabinet If An Airflow Alert Activates Figure 5-9 The most common causes of an Airflow Alert are: Blockage of the inlet grilles or exhaust outlet Removal of the work surface or grille during operation Resetting the Airflow Alert System The Airflow Alert automatically resets to normal operation once the motor speed has stabilized.
