The LabGard® ES (Energy Saver) NU-610 Dual Access Class II, Type A2 Animal Handling Biosafety Cabinet is a dual access animal handling biosafety cabinet, which is intended to be used for the safe handling of animals in the laboratory. The NU-610 model is built into the wall, which makes it easy to bring new animals into a facility or move them between different rooms. It is designed with features intended to keep both lab personnel and animals protected during lab work and transfers.
The NU-610 Dual Access Animal Handling Biosafety Cabinet is built into the wall of a facility, which means that it is easy to bring new animals into a research facility or pass them between rooms.
The biosafety cabinet has a two large, 12-inch (305 millimeter) access openings. This makes it easy to replace cages or move them between rooms while still maintaining a protective air barrier between spaces.
The NU-610 cabinet was designed with a simple control system, with rocker switches that control the cabinet's parameters. It is as easy as easy can get.
The NU-610 cabinet was designed with HEPEX™ Zero Leak Airflow System. This system keeps lab personnel safe by keeping contaminated air within the cabinet. By using positive pressure chambers and ducts surrounded by negative pressure, the HEPEX™ Zero Leak Airflow system prevents the possibility of air leaks. The HEPEX™ fabrics also protect research products, as they are resistant to chemicals, oil, and grease while also being antibacterial.
To minimize air turbulence within the work zone, the animal biosafety cabinet uses real laminar airflow. This means it uses unidirectional airflow along parallel flow lines at a constant velocity.
An active air barrier within the NU-610 keeps lab workers safe. The air barrier is created using a steady inflow air speed of 105 fpm (.53 m/s) over an aerodynamic airfoil for ultimate personal protection.
An ultra-high efficiency ECM motors combined with the appropriately sized fan blades lower energy usage while extending the life of filters. LabGard® offers the lowest total cost of ownership compared to other models.
The NU-610 was designed with a motor speed controller. This controller helps to compensate for low or high airflow limits, ensuring that lab technicians remain safe and protected.
