Class II Biological Safety Cabinets

A unique padded armrest allows the cabinet to continue operation – and maintain A2 conditions – with the viewscreen in the close position. The SterilGARD e3 is the only cabinet in the industry that offers an idle mode that is instantly safe upon resuming standard operation. The versatile ReadySAFE™ mode can be used during meetings, lunch breaks and overnights to maintain safe conditions, create a quieter work environment, and save energy.

Save energy and filter costs – the revolutionary airflow management system called StediFLOW™ with a self-adjusting motor technology uses less energy and extends filter life without sacrificing performance. Increase productivity with a continuously safe work environment – our exclusive ReadySAFE™ mode allows the cabinet to continuously operate while the screen is closed. An industry first, this mode allows the user to maintain safe conditions while leaving for lunch, meetings or even overnight.

Work in optimum comfort – the ergonomically advanced SterilGARD e3 is the quietest cabinet on the market with the lowest heat generation and minimal vibration, which means you’ll finish your day feeling as good as when you started.

Experience easier cleaning – an exceptionally reliable membrane-sealed control panel, a one-piece work surface, and radiused, cove corners allow for faster, more thorough cleaning.
Reduce service and certification downtime – an innovative electronic controller with diagnostic LEDs, detachable side panels, front loading filters, and a reinforced overall panel design makes maintenance quicker and easier.

The BioVanguard series consists of high-quality Class II biological safety cabinets, designed for microbiological research with, for example, bacteria, viruses and allergens.

The safety cabinets offer optimum protection for product, user and environment in places where substances with biosafety levels 1, 2 and 3 are used. This series meets the highest requirements in terms of quality, biological safety, reliability, ergonomics and user-friendliness. In addition, both energy consumption and noise levels are low.

Especially for applications with a high microbiological risk or toxic applications, such as the production of cytotoxic drugs, there is the BioVanguard B. It is equipped with a 1st HEPA-filter stage below the work surface, which filters intake air and keep the internal construction of the cabinet free from contamination.

CleanAir EF Series, our top range of high-quality Class II Biological Safety Cabinets ensures the highest level of protection for operator, product, and environment, minimizing hazards inherent to working with agents assigned to biosafety levels 1, 2 and 3. They are suitable for microbiological research with, for example, bacteria, viruses and allergens. The users are protected by inflow, the products by HEPA-filtered laminar downflow in the working area (30% exhaust, 70% recirculation). HEPA-filtered exhaust air ensures environmental protection. The design meets the highest requirements in terms of safety, ergonomics, ease of use and reliability.

Type EF / B is designed for applications with a high microbiological risk and for toxic applications, such as the preparation of cytotoxic drugs. As an additional safety element, the cabinet is equipped with an additional V-shaped HEPA filters under the worktop. They filter the inflow air and the downflow, protecting the working area against contamination. EF Series is designed and manufactured according to international biosafety standards EN12469 (Class II), NSF49 (Class II Type A2). The working area is classified as ISO 14644-1 (Class 5) and GMP Annex 1 (Class A). Additionally, Type EF/B cabinets are designed and manufactured according to DIN 12980 (Class II). EF is designed for microbiological research with biological agents (e.g., bacteria, viruses, etc) and allergens.

Developed to exceed the National Cancer Institute’s Expectations… and Yours.
The Baker NCB™ e3 biological safety cabinet exceeds specifications for the NCI-1 cabinet developed by the National Cancer Institute, with unique design features proven to enhance containment while inhibiting cross contamination and exposure to chemicals, vapours, and gases. Patented under the work surface, HEPA filters and the direct exhaust airflow system combined, increases protection from particulates, preventing the build-up of chemical vapours and gases. All exhaust air is removed directly from the work area (direct exhaust) into a building’s separate exhaust system. Vapours and gases emitted from vessels or work behind the air split (approximately halfway back from the cabinet front) are removed and not recirculated.
HEPA filters located below the work surface assure that all positive pressure areas are free of particulate contamination. Additionally, all positive pressure plenums are completely surrounded by negative pressure. Recirculated air is HEPA-filtered immediately below the work surface before it is passed through a supply downflow filter above the work area.
Energy Efficient Engineered
The NCB™ e3 utilizes StediFLOW™, a self-adjusting motor technology that requires less energy, extends filter life, and reduces heat output to the lab without sacrificing performance.

The most energy efficient, comfortable, and safe B2 cabinet in the industry
The BioChemGARD® e3 is a breakthrough in total-exhaust biological safety cabinets. Engineered specifically for laboratories that need containment and removal of vapours, mists, and particulates, the BioChemGARD® e3 has a revolutionary airflow system that increases users’ comfort and productivity while decreasing the overall operating costs.
Unique Airflow Design operates with a reduced exhaust airflow and resistance, which minimizes noise and reduces the volume of conditioned air that is exhausted from the laboratory. To find out more about energy efficiency, read our white paper.
The motor/blower design provides up to a 420% reserve for a very long filter life, resulting in less maintenance. With the exclusive ExchangeSAFE™ (sealed access filter exchange system) located directly under the work surface, improves access making the process quiet with reduced exposure to containments.
Self-Adjusting Airflow – The StediFLOW™ VFD motor controller maintains precise airflow by self-adjusting for filter loading. Also controls the ReadySAFE™ low-flow operating mode that preserves containment conditions when the BSC is not in use and substantially reduces energy consumption.
Optional Fume Hood Package – Meets the UL requirements for Electrical/Mechanical Safety (UL 61010-1) and the UL requirements for Material Flammability and Effectiveness of Airflow Characteristics (UL 1805). The cabinet design has been tested in accordance with ANSI/ASHRAE 110-1995. Usage should be determined by a professional industrial hygienist.
