Equipment Placement & Set-Up - Labconco Logic Vue User Manual

Equipment Placement & Set-up
When placing large equipment inside the Logic Vue enclosure, make certain it is
centered in the work area (as close as reasonably possible). This allows the downflow
air to pass by all sides, and improves product and personnel protection.
In addition, if the equipment is an automated system with guard panels on the top/sides,
remove these panels (if possible) to allow the HEPA-filtered downflow air to pass
through the equipment. This will reduce high velocity air patterns within the enclosure
as the downflow air accelerates between the large equipment and the Front and Rear
Hatch walls. See Figure 4-31.
The Logic Vue provides a switched safety interlock that closes a single contact when all
sashes are closed. This interlock can be connected to a safety interlock on the
automated equipment, such that the equipment will operate safely. If any of the Logic
Vue sashes (or optional Access Doors) are opened, the Logic Vue will open the
interlock contact, which signals the automated equipment to pause operations.
