FAQs - Class II Cabinets

How do I install the UV light in my Envair / Faster SafeFAST Classic?
Yes, to do this follow these simple instructions -
• Turn motor blowers off
• Place UV on back wall of cabinet (it will secure with magnets). Plug black cord into special round UV plug socket RHS. Screw tight.
• Close front window completely
• Press UV button on HMI.
• If UV does not light or screen says “not installed” press escape
• Press ESC and Down to enter service mode
• Press 3,5,4 SET
• Scroll to maintenance – SET
• Scroll to cabinet options – SET
• Scroll to UV Lamp installed – change N to Y – SET – ESC out of menu
• Press UV button on HMI. – UV should switch on

Do I have to buy replacement UV bulbs from Wolflabs or are these generic items that can be sourced from a variety of suppliers?
Replacement UV bulbs can be sourced from a specialist bulb supplier such as http://www.sld-london.co.uk/products/specialist-lamps/. You don't usually even have to use the same manufacturer as providing the supplier with the manufacturer's name and model number (this is generally printed on the bulb) will normally allow them to quote an equivalent size and Wattage.

How can I minimise air disruption in the cabinet?
Rapid movement within the cabinet will disrupt the air curtain and may compromise the partial barrier containment. Moving arms in and out slowly, perpendicular to the face of the cabinet will reduce this risk.

Where is the most appropriate place for operations to be performed?
The middle third of the work surface is the ideal area to be used. All operations should be performed at 100mm from the front grill.

How should I work with tubes?
Open tubes or bottles should not be held in a vertical position. Bottle or tube caps should not be placed on the towelling. Items should be recapped or covered as soon as possible.

How do I reduce cross-contamination?
Keeping clean materials at least 310mm away from aerosol generating activities will minimise the potential for cross-contamination.
