Electrical outlets in the cabinet are restricted to 5 amps (100-115v) or 3 amps
(230v) maximum current.
Prises électriques dans l'armoire sont limitées à 5 (100-115v) o 3 (230v) courant

The biosafety cabinet should be certified by a certification technician before its
initial use. The cabinet should be recertified whenever it is relocated, serviced or
at least annually thereafter. Filter integrity and airflow performance should be
verified before using the cabinet.
Some internal components of the biosafety cabinet may become contaminated
during operation of the unit. Only experienced personnel competent in
decontamination procedures should decontaminate the cabinet before servicing
these components. If you have any questions regarding certification agencies, or
need assistance in locating one, contact Labconco's Product Service Department
at 800-821-5525 or 816-333-8811.
DO NOT load more than 50 lbs. (23 Kg) in the work area. Exceeding this limit
may damage the work surface and its supports. Excessive weight in the cabinet
may increase the risk of it overturning, or failure of hydraulic lift stands, resulting
in the cabinet and stand overturning. If your application requires loading more
than 50 lbs., contact Labconco's Product Service Department at 800-821-5525 or
816-333-8811 for assistance.
Avoid the use of flammable gases or solvents in the biosafety cabinet. Care must
be taken to ensure against the concentration of flammable or explosive gases or
vapors. An open flame should NOT be used in the biosafety cabinet. Open
flames will disrupt airflow patterns, burn the HEPA filter and/or damage the filter's
adhesive. Gases under high pressure should not be used in the biosafety
cabinet, as they may disrupt its airflow patterns.
HEPA filters only remove particulate matter. Operations generating volatile toxic
chemicals or radionuclides must be evaluated carefully.
