Biosafety Cabinet Class-2 B2
BIOSAFETY CABINET CLAS 2 -B2
A Class II biological safety cabinet (BSC) is a ventilated containment device found in laboratories around the world. BSCs are used in many applications, including cell culture, pharmaceutical, clinical and microbiological work. Due to the critical nature accomplished inside these commonly used laboratory products, BSCs are regulated through rigorous standards and compliance. Engineered controls are built into the design of BSCs providing protection to the operator, product and environment.
Globally, different regions have their own standards applicable to BSCs, and manufacturers build and test to the criteria set out in these standards. The two most common standards used globally are the NSF/ANSI 149, which originated in North America and EN12469 :2000 Biotechnology— Performance criteria for microbiological safety cabinets which originated in Europe. WIST Biosafety is NSF 49 and EN12469 certified
How it’s Works
in class 2 B2 front aperture creating an air barrier that gives the operator protection. Air is also pulled from an opening at the top of the cabinet that supplies the downflow fans with air . Then the air goes through a HEPA filter and is 100% exhausted through a dedicated duct with an exhaust fan motor. The air is then released into the atmosphere. The purpose of this is to remove toxic vapors that are generated in the cabinet with no recirculation within the BSC.
Airflow through a B2 is 100% externally exhausted which means the air that is drawn into the cabinet is 100% exhausted into the atmosphere. None of the air drawn into the B2 for either inflow or downflow is recycled within the airflow system.
