- Unique Dynamic Chamber™ plenum with angled filter delivers superb airflow uniformity, exceeding European Standard EN 12469 by more than three times.
- Negative pressure plenum surrounds contaminated positive pressure plenum; no fabric bags are used.
- Dual fan design for guaranteed safety. If one fan fails, operator protection is still maintained with only one fan running.
- Esco next-generation Sentinel™ microprocessor supervises all cabinet functions.
- A large easy-to-read digital display and ergonomically sized touchpad controls improve
user interface. - Fully closable, motorized sash provides an airtight seal for better safety when the cabinet is inoperative overnight.
- The front sash is motorized for convenient one-hand operation. The sash control is mounted on the front control panel.
- Integrated sash proximity contacts sense proper sash position, serve as an interlock for the UV lamp, and activate an alarm if the sash is improperly positioned.
- When fully lowered the sash seals automatically against a closed-cell peripheral gasket to isolate the interior and prevent escape of contaminants during decontamination.
- Frameless, shatterproof sash is easier to clean, offers larger, unobstructed viewing area.
- Ergonomically angled front improves reach and comfort.
- Raised armrest maintains safety by preventing blockage.
- Esco ISOCIDE™ antimicrobial surface on all painted surfaces minimizes contamination.
- Downflow air sensor mounted in interior.
- Accuflow™ microprocessor speed controller maintains safe cabinet airflow despite supply voltage fluctuations.
- Integrated RFI and electrical noise filters eliminate interference with and from adjacent equipment.
- Low noise level <58dBA (1.2 meter (4') cabinet) is significantly quieter than conventional
cabinets. - Dual, long-life ULPA (per IEST-RP-CC001.3) filters for supply and exhaust airflow.
- Enhanced side-capture zones optimize containment.
- Independent exhaust sensor mounted exterior to work area.
- Single piece side and back wall construction.
- Improved lighting is brighter, more uniform and reduces glare.
- Optional UV lamp operates on programmable timer.
- HPV-compliant and approved for safe decontamination using BIOQUELL and STERIS technologies.
