The latest upgrade to the Labculture® line also sees the popular manual switches model, Labculture® Reliant, to now adopt the same structure as Labculture®. True to the progress in laboratory environment, Labculture® and Labculture® Reliant now utilize the latest generation DC ECM motor that is up to 70% more efficient than any ordinary AC motor used by other BSC manufacturers. The progress is made while maintaining the numerous features that make Labculture® the Most Certified Energy Efficient, Safe and Ergonomic Biosafety Cabinet in the World.
Labculture® Class II Type A2 Biological Safety Cabinets Features:
- Innovative, state-of-the-art, and efficient DC ECM motor automatically compensates for changes in filter loading to optimize filter life while maintaining performance.
- ULPA Filter technology (99.999% efficiency) (per IEST-RP-CC001.3 USA) provides up to 10x better filtering capability than ordinary HEPA filters (99.99% efficiency) for greater product, personnel, and environmental protection.
- External surfaces are powder coated with ISOCIDE™ to eliminate 99.9% of surface bacteria within 24 hours of exposure.
- Sentinel™ Gold Microprocessor controller with Airflow Sensor and Safety Alarms displays safety information on a single screen with excellent readability.
- Night setback mode can be activated at non-operational hour to reduce power consumption by about 60% while maintaining containment.
- Stainless steel arm rest provides ergonomic resting place for arm in experiment to promote good working posture while helping prevent arms from blocking inflow grille for containment assurance.
- Single piece wall with large radiused corner optimizes cleaning and decontamination where work zone is without hidden surfaces to hide contaminants.
- RS232 and Zero Volt Relay Contact allows communication of critical operational information to the BMS while relay contact can be used to control blower and alarm.
