Most microbiology laboratories use a Class II Microbiological Safety Cabinet. But how many microbiologists know exactly how it works? Knowing how a microbiological safety cabinet works allows you to better understand it and therefore avoid handling errors that could lead to contamination. This document focuses on the set-up and use of the safety cabinet: technical information, instructions for use, maintenance and how to choose your safety cabinet.
The Solis class II microbiological safety cabinet provides complete protection to the user, the product and the environment.
Its touch screen is equipped with brand new features: calculator, timer, webcam, music.
Ergonomics, safety, user-friendliness and design are the key elements of the Solis, Erlab-Noroit’s class II microbiological safety cabinet, which has been designed to respond to the daily needs of research and development laboratories.
The Solis Premium workstation is equipped with a patented window tilting device, “Solis Twist and Clean©”, so you can easily clean the inside of the front window:
Open the two panels, tilt the window, then simply clean!
Safety
Erlab solutions are designed to ensure people’s safety when handling chemicals in the laboratory. Based on the principle of filtration, they offer Erlab increased protection against the risk of chemical inhalation caused by the emission of harmful molecules and particles at the workstation.
Protect the environment
Erlab solutions do not require a connected ventilation system, which stops pollutants from being released straight into the atmosphere and therefore helps protect the environment. Furthermore, they do not create pollution like traditional extraction hoods which need to produce energy to keep the ventilation systems functioning correctly.
Energy savings
Creating ventilation balance is essential for connected systems to function correctly; however, this requires significant energy consumption. Erlab solutions, on the other hand, incur no energy costs for the extraction and supply of conditioned air, nor do they have high operational costs, even taking into account the cost to change the filter.
Reduce installation costs
Erlab solutions are quick and easy to install. Unlike connected systems, they do not require a ventilation system linked to an air supply and extraction system to be installed.
You just need one plug to get up and running, and you can get set up at any suitable moment, without complex planning.
Optimise the flexibility and design of laboratories
Erlab solutions can be easily moved within a laboratory to suit your protection needs, and without affecting the ventilation balance of the room.
Proven technology
With over 150,000 protection enclosures installed around the world, Erlab offers a proven product ecosystem.
