Overview

Discover the advanced LabGard CYTO NU-581 Class II, Type A2 Biosafety Cabinet, engineered explicitly for handling cytotoxic powders. This state-of-the-art biosafety cabinet introduces unprecedented protection by integrating a third tier of HEPA filtration beneath the work surface. It's meticulously designed to meet the rigorous standards of EN 12469 and DIN 12980, making it ideal for the most demanding pharmaceutical environments worldwide. Equipped with dual airflow sensors, the NU-581 ensures optimal cabinet performance, constantly monitored and displayed on an intuitive touch panel. This cabinet is not just a piece of equipment; it's a comprehensive solution for handling cytotoxic agents safely and efficiently, offering unparalleled protection and compliance.

Triple HEPA Filtration for API Safety

Incorporating a specialized wedge HEPA filtration system below the work surface, this biosafety cabinet is designed to specifically target and trap API powders. This innovative layer works in concert with the core supply and exhaust HEPA filters, which function as in standard BSCs, to provide enhanced containment. This tailored approach to filtration ensures a high degree of protection against particulate exposure, making it ideal for handling potent powders in pharmaceutical applications.

TouchLink Control System

The TouchLink control system calculates inflow velocity based on the data received from the exhaust airflow sensor and displays it alongside the readings from the downflow sensor on the front panel. Touch screen control, historical monitoring, and configurable settings enable users to manage airflow when performance must be demonstrated and recorded.

TouchLink Control System from Biosafety Cabinets

Thermistor Exhaust Sensor

A single dual-thermistor airflow sensor in the exhaust measures airflow to enable the FlowGard to calculate inflow velocity for users desiring the most straightforward measurement of cabinet containment performance.

Airflow sensor used in biosafety cabinets.

Downflow Air Sensor

The downflow sensor measures velocity inside the work zone and passes the data to the TouchLink display to assure users of product protection, a critical aspect in many pharmaceutical and biotechnology applications.
