Optimised efficiency with Thermo Scientific’s cabinet range
US-based Thermo Fisher Scientific is offering lab users a new range of safety cabinets designed for optimum efficiency and operation.
The Thermo Scientific MSC-Advantage Class II biological safety cabinet range comes in the 1.2m and 1.8m-wide models, making them a good choice for labs that require stringent safety performance with reduced power consumption.
With advanced internal airflow and motor technology, the cabinets offer optimal energy efficiency, operation and serviceability. At full speed, the motors consume 60% less energy than standard cabinets. To further conserve energy, the speed control automatically reduces blower speed to 30% when the window is closed. This technology extends HEPA filter life while ensuring a sterile working environment and saves energy to minimise operating costs. Noise output has also been reduced to <55 dB (1.2 m model), increasing user comfort.
All removable components, including the HEPA filters, can be changed from the front, minimising filter replacement time. In addition, smooth components are used throughout the cabinet, virtually eliminating the risk of injury during routine cleaning, servicing, and maintenance procedures. The optional UV light is programmable from 1 minute to 24 hours. This reduces the need for bulb replacement, and the selection of fixed and adjustable stands provides the correct working height for all situations.
