BSC-G Class II Cabinets

FOREWORD
Faster UltraSafe Microbiological Safety Cabinets belong to the latest generation of laminar airflow systems manufactured by Faster, in which the choice of materials of construction of the highest quality guarantees conformity to the strictest safety standards. Faster UltraSafe vertical laminar flow cabinets are Class II Microbiological Safety Cabinets - designed and built to performance requirements of the EN-12469:2000 European Standard, with 70% of the air re-circulated via the main Class H14 HEPA filter within the cabinet, whilst the remaining 30% is discharged through an exhaust Class H14 HEPA filter.

APPLICATIONS
Faster UltraSafe Class II Microbiological Safety Cabinets have been adopted worldwide in use for product, personnel and environmental protection while handling harmful agents pathogenic to human beings and/or animals as defined in the appropriate international standards, in a wide range of disciplines in applications such as: Microbiology, Virology, Haematology, Cell culture, Genetics, Handling of hazardous agents to human beings or animals

BENEFITS
Ergonomic Design. The angled sloping front safety-glass sash provides optimum visibility of all objects placed in the interior workspace. The sash is electrically operated. Pressing the appropriate touch-sensitive keys will completely open or completely close down the sash.
The standard sash-height opening during work is set to 250 mm. Alternative sash-height settings by the factory are possible upon request. The whole front of the safety cabinet – which includes the sash mechanism – can also be opened upwards as it is hinged on the top – in order to allow easy access for complete and effective cleaning and decontamination.
Inflatable gasketing is also available as an option to provide effective sealing of the internal workspace of the chamber for purposes of fumigation/sterilization.
Silent Operation. The textile plenum, the structures of the electric motors of the fans fitted on their antivibration mounts and the software itself designed to provide optimum airhandling characteristics guarantee quiet operation of this silent safety cabinet, with sound-pressure levels recorded way below the parameters specified in the current EN:12469 European Standard for Microbiological Safety Cabinets.
Protection grid A protection grid made of AISI 304 stainless steel is provided inside the part behind the rear panel (where air flows), in order to avoid de-contamination costs would the tissue used during cleaning operations be sucked in the motor-blower causing the failure of the blower itself and/or of anemometer.
High Level Lighting. The safety glass side-windows with the ideal positoning and sizing of the light-system provide the highest level of luminosity to the work area.
Easy handling and maintenance. The safety cabinet can pass through 800 mm wide door openings. In fact, the overall depth of the cabinet can be reduced to approx. 790 mm by removal of the rear panel. All service operations are available from the front of the cabinet.

SPECIFICATIONS
Rear wall in stainless steel AISI 304L, designed to conform to requirements and pass the “cleanability test” according to EN12469:2000.

AISI 316 work surface consisting of sections which are easily removable for carrying out routine cleaning and/or autoclaving sterilization procedures; closed or perforated on request.

Re-circulating and extractor fans: FASTER UltraSafe Microbiological Safety Cabinets ‘S’-Series are supplied with single centrifugal fan, whilst models of the ‘D’ Series with double centrifugal fan to provide complete operator, product and environmental protection. Moreover the ‘D’ models fitted with double motor-fan are designed and are also suitable to discharge the filtered air outside the laboratory through a ducting system if required.

Microprocessor based monitoring system: full status report provided via digital display by the new generation microprocessors – which automatically control all functions and all safety alarm systems ensuring that performance characteristics are maintained to EN12469:2000 requirements. High power lithium battery keeps safety data saved to microprocessor system

The user-friendly practical keyboard and the rear-lit LCD will continuously display all required data keeping the user constantly informed of the cabinet conditions in operation, and in particular:
- display of laminar airflow velocity and frontal air barrier velocity
- display of inside and outside temperature
- display of residual lifetime of HEPA filters, UV Lamp and activated carbon filter (if fitted)
- display of total number of hours of operation
- display of saturation level of HEPA filters.

Audio-visual alarms provided for:
- Out of range or incorrect laminar airflow velocity and frontal air barrier velocity
- Uncorrect position of front sash-window
- saturation of HEPA filters
- end of life-cycle of UV lamp and saturation of activated carbon filter (if fitted)
- blockage in the exhaust duct
- fan-motor malfunction
- power failure

UV sterilizing lamp (optional) complete two switch-off countdown timers, one variable on a 0¸3 hours scale (1 minute steps), the other set to 3 fixed hours.
