Name: SafeFAST Elite - Class I | Biological & Chemical Safety | MSC
Brand: Faster
SKU: 955da13a7410

SafeFAST Elite Class I are microbiological safety cabinets according to EN 12469:2000. They are designed to provide operator and environmental protection but are not designed to protect the product.

The unit is an open-fronted exhaust cabinet inside of which operator can carry out manipulations of low and moderate risk biological agents. The room air flowing in to provide containment and before being exhausted, the air is filtered through a G3 pre-filter and an H14 HEPA/ULPA filter.

Description

SafeFAST Elite – Class I

Applications

SafeFAST Elite Class I Microbiological Safety Cabinets have been adopted worldwide in use for personnel and environmental protection while handling low and moderate pathogenic agents, in a wide range of disciplines in applications such as: Microbiology, Virology, Hematology, Cell culture, Genetics, recombinant DNA.

Air from external environment is directly drawn inside the working chamber preventing from the pathogens being split to the external environment. Inlet air is filtered by means of G3 pre-filter located behind the rear panel before being exhausted in the environment through the H 14 HEPA/ULPA filter positioned on the top of the equipment.

Specifications

External structure in epoxy powder coated cold-rolled steel for excellent corrosion resistance to the attack by aggressive common chemicals. Alternatively special models with external structure made in AISI 304L stainless steel for superior cleanability are also available on demand.

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

Work surface in stainless steel AISI 316L consisting of sections (or in one piece upon request) which are easily removable for carrying out routine cleaning and/or autoclaving sterilization procedures; closed or perforated on request.

Front window: electrically operated vertically sliding safety glass sash window.

Prefiltration: Inlet G3 pre-filter efficiency 80≤AM≤90 according to EN 779 and UNI 10339 fitted in stainless steel grid positioned in the rear panel of the working area.

Re-circulating and extractor fan:SafeFAST Elite class I are supplied with single centrifugal fan.

Filtration: H14 HEPA/ULPA filter with an efficiency better than 99,995 % MPPS (EN-1822).

Operation Condition: Air cleanliness in Class ISO 3 as per ISO:EN 14644-1.

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/ULPA filter, UV Lamp and activated carbon filter (if fitted)
display of total number of hours of operation
display of saturation level of HEPA/ULPA filter.

Audio-visual alarms provided for:

out of range or incorrect laminar airflow velocity and frontal air barrier velocity
incorrect position of front sash-window
clogging of HEPA/ULPA filters
end of life-cycle of UV lamp and saturation of activated carbon filter (if fitted)
blockage in the exhaust duct ( if fitted )
fan-motor malfunction
power failure

Lighting: fluorescent tubes in built-in housing, placed outside the contaminated area

D.O.P.-DEHS inlet port for testing the HEPA/ULPA filter.

Magnetic and removable UV sterilizing lamp (optional) that can be easily placed in each area of the back wall. It is completed with two switch-off countdown timers, one variable on a 0-3 hours scale (1 minute steps), the other set to 3 fixed hours.
