5: Performance Features The Cell Logic+ Type B2 biosafety cabinet protects items placed on the work surface, the personnel working with material inside the cabinet, and the lab environment, when operated to manufacturer’s specifications and proper aseptic techniques are employed. This protection is provided through the use of laminar airflow, HEPA filtration, careful cabinet construction, and Constant Airflow Profile (CAP) ECM motors.
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 cabinet’s work area and into the laboratory environment. This airflow is often calculated and referred to as the Inflow Volume or Average Inflow Velocity.
HEPA Filters HEPA filters are disposable, dry-type particulate filters. The filter material or media is typically made of borosilicate microfibers formed into a thin sheet, in a process similar to the production of paper. This sheet is folded, or pleated to increase its surface area. The pleats are typically held in place by beads of glue that add rigidity to the media pack.
The motor utilizes Labconco’s exclusive Constant Airflow Profile (CAP) program to deliver a consistent volume of air, throughout the life of the cabinet.
UV Lamp (optional) The optional UV lamp generates a primary wavelength of light of 254nm. A secondary emission is in the visible (blue) wavelength, resulting in the characteristic blue color while operating. UV light at this wavelength is biocidal, primarily by creating thymine dimers in DNA.
Stand-Still Isolation Platform The Stand-Still Isolation Platform supports the microscope on the cabinet’s work surface and removes up to 94% of vertical and horizontal vibrations. ASHRAE 110 and NSF 49 testing confirms this unique elevated, aerodynamic base ensures safe airflow. Constructed of seamless Type 304 stainless steel, the isolation platform is non-porous, easy to clean, and autoclavable.
