Laminar Flow

Clean benches designed with you in mind. The EdgeGARD® VF is a vertical-flow recirculating air clean bench that provides protection for samples and work procedures where product protection and particulate control are required.

• ISO Class 4 (Class 10) cleanliness (for 0.5 micrometre particles)
• Build for versatility, productivity, and user comfort
• Latest extension of the EdgeGARD® clean bench line

Unlike conventional horizontal-flow clean benches, the EdgeGARD® VF provides vertical, uni-directional, and controlled airflow over the entire work surface, while reducing energy consumption, noise, and airflow turbulence. Recognized as the industry’s most reliable clean bench, this extension of Baker’s EdgeGARD® brand provides lower life-cycle costs and years of trouble-free operation.

Topair provides high-quality, safe Vertical Laminar Clean Benches. TopAir’s clean benches suck air from the room or hall space, transfer the air through a HEPA filter using a fan, and then clean the bench area with filtered air. In vertical benches, the filtered air is channelled downwards through a filter installed at the top of the bench. All components are produced by leading global companies, such as AAF USA. Advanced Operation System:

• Colour 5″ touch screen
• 10-speed fan
• Hour counter for filter
• Filter replacement alarm

Clean benches are designed to supply a clean controlled work environment meeting Class 100/ISO5 cleanliness standard, resembling a clean room, with the additional advantages of portability and small dimensions. Clean benches provide a high-quality alternative to a clean room at a much lower cost and without massive construction. The clean bench complies with Test Standard USA Federal Standard 209E / ISO 14644-1 / CE and can be customized to customer requirements.

The DLF series is a high-quality vertical laminar flow cabinet for non-hazardous substances that require a protection against the environment.

Clean benches designed with you in mind. A laminar flow clean bench provides a working environment that has its own filtered air supply. Used in a variety of applications including medical research laboratories, hospitals, manufacturing facilities and other research and production environments, clean benches direct HEPA-filtered airflow across the work area to provide ISO Class 5 (Class 100) virtually particulate-free work area for conducting procedures.

Clean benches prevent any contaminated room air from entering the work area and contaminating samples. Clean benches do not protect users from exposure and should never be used when working with any infectious material or volatile/toxic chemicals. EdgeGARD® HF Horizontal Laminar-Flow Clean Bench
