  • Page 9 This manual is written for the installer and user of this product. For detailed service, certification, or technical information, please utilize the Technical Manual located on the website labconco.com. This manual contains important operation and safety information. When you see a symbol, such as the INFO symbol to the left, pay close attention to the information provided.
  • Page 10 2: Before You Install Before you install the product, the site should be prepared 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 within 10 feet (3 m) of the installation site for the included power cord, or maximum of 25 feet (7.5m) to utilize a longer (user-supplied), appropriately rated power cord.
  • Page 11 On 100V and 115V models, both internal electrical outlets are protected by a ground fault interrupter circuit (GFIC). Labconco does NOT recommend connecting the product’s power cord into a GFIC outlet. GFIC outlets can nuisance trip, resulting in complete removal of power to the product.
  • Page 12 Note: The use of flammable gases or solvents should be avoided in the biosafety cabinet. Open flame in the cabinet will disrupt the laminar airflow in the cabinet and may damage the HEPA filters. Flammable gases or solvents may reach explosive concentrations in the cabinet or ductwork.
  • Page 13 This will allow for proper balancing of the system. See Figure 2-5. Labconco highly recommends installing an air-tight damper above each biosafety cabinet when connected to a building exhaust system. See Air-Tight Damper information on the following pages. The air-tight damper allows for fine adjustment of the exhaust air volume provided, in order to correctly set the necessary exhaust airflow for each biosafety cabinet.
  • Page 14 The exhaust system must be capable of moving the following volumes of exhaust air at the negative pressures listed. The Airflow Volumes are the values recorded via direct measurement using a flow hood on the exhaust duct above the cabinet. The Concurrent Balance Values are measured in the exhaust duct via traverse methodology, and will always be higher due to differences in volume measurement methodologies.

User-Supplied Microscope Requirements – Scope-Ready™ Package Only If installing a microscope, locate the Stand-Still™ Isolation Platform in a separate box shipped with the cabinet.
  • Page 16 User-Supplied Circulator Requirements – Temp-Zone™ Package Only The Temp Zone™ features a temperature controlled area on the work surface where heated or chilled samples may be transferred and kept at optimum temperature. A user- supplied circulator that continually delivers heated or chilled water at a minimum flow rate of 0.5 GPM (1.9 LPM) with typical volume of 6 liters is required and may be obtained from your laboratory supply dealer.

  • Page 30 Connecting to Ethernet with a Remote Communications Board To connect the building’s ethernet to the biosafety cabinet with an optional RCB, follow the steps below: 1. If installed, remove the two phillips screws in the front of the exhaust cover. Hinge the cover up from the front and secure in place with the exhaust cover prop.
  • Page 31 Safe for use with vacuum, air, carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and argon. Not for use with water, steam or high purity gasses like oxygen and hydrogen. Contact Labconco for additional valve options.
  • Page 32 Drain Valve Installation (Optional) A drain valve assembly is provided in the Parts Box. The drain allows for removal of large amounts of liquid trapped in the area underneath the work surface. The installation of the drain valve is not required. If not installing the drain valve, this section may be skipped.
  • Page 33 Note: If the research involves the use of toxic compounds or volatile materials, contact the facility’s safety officer or Labconco to ensure that the cabinet and its exhaust system are compatible with the materials you will be working with.
  • Page 34 6. Remove the 14 screws (#6-32 x 0.25") that retain the Pure-Vu Seal. 7. Either reinstall one of the pre-cut accessory Pure-Vu Seals from Section 9 or punch the holes in the blank seal supplied and then re-install the seal. For your convenience, see Appendix E for installation of pleated Pure-Vu XL Seals used with stereoscopes requiring frequent eyepiece height adjustment of +/- 2.0"...
  • Page 35 2. Find a suitable place next to the cabinet or underneath the cabinet to place the circulator. Accessory shelves for small circulators are available from labconco.com. Larger circulators should be placed on the floor. 3. Pivot the work surface up and use the Easy-Clean Prop Rods to support the work surface.
  • Page 36 sample temperature. Furthermore, circulator settings to maintain chilled refrigerated samples may require 0.3-3.0°C colder temperatures than the desired sample temperature. Experimentation is necessary to achieve proper sample temperatures. 10. For chilled applications, the Temp-Zone work area comes with a drain line installed that can be routed to the cabinet’s drain valve, if desired.
  • Page 37 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. Detailed information for product certification is located in the Logic Technical Manual.
  • Page 38 5: Performance Features The Cell Logic Type A2 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.
  • Page 39 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. This airflow is often calculated and referred to as the Inflow Volume or Average Inflow Velocity.
  • Page 40 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.
  • Page 41 The ECM is a brushless DC motor that includes its own power supply to convert the incoming alternating current to direct current, as well as its own microprocessor to control and measure the motor’s operation. The motor utilizes Labconco’s exclusive Constant Airflow Profile (CAP) program to deliver a consistent volume of air, throughout the life of the cabinet.
  • Page 42 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.
  • Page 43 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.

  • Page 62 Figure 6-17 Look to identify the cause of the airflow disruption, and remove the blockage or return the work surface to its proper position. When a blockage of the airflow occurs, the cabinet’s blower automatically increases its speed to maintain constant volume airflow. This is a protective feature; however, if the disruption is significant (for example blocking the entire front grille) it will not guarantee product or personnel protection remains during the significant blockage event.
  • Page 63 Power Loss Alarm The cabinet has lost power. See Figure 6-18. Press [OK] on the keypad to acknowledge that a power loss occurred. Figure 6-18 Note: This alarm will activate any time power is cycled, including turning the System Reset Switch (see Figure 7-2) off and back on.
