Biological Safety Cabinets – Class II, Type A2

Biological Safety Cabinets – Class II, Type A2 from Being International are a cost-effective choice for laboratories needing essential protection. Designed with a front window operation port, these Biological Safety Cabinets allow safe and convenient access for routine procedures.

Operator safety is maintained through negative pressure airflow at the opening, while a high-efficiency filter ensures that downflow air protects the work environment and samples. Filtered air is also exhausted through an additional HEPA filter, minimizing environmental contamination. Available in South Africa from Apex Scientific, this economic solution meets fundamental biosafety needs.

Efficient EC Fan System

The energy-saving EC fan delivers 30% to 60% more efficiency than traditional AC motors. Its automatic resistance compensation keeps air velocity stable, even when filter resistance increases by up to 300%.

 

High-Efficiency HEPA Filtration

A built-in HEPA filter provides over 99.99% efficiency at 0.3 µm, maintaining ISO Class 5 clean air standards. For labs needing higher performance, an optional UPLA filter is also available.

 

Comfort-Focused Ergonomic Design

The 5° backward-slanted safety glass improves visibility and posture during work. Raised armrests prevent grille blockage, and the sash allows single-hand operation. Integrated backlit lighting reduces visual fatigue over long periods.

 

Smart Microprocessor Controls

The large LCD display offers real-time safety monitoring. It includes visual and audible alarms for HEPA filter failure or damage, keeping users informed and safe throughout operation.

 

Clean and Safe Internal Working Area

Three arc-shaped interior walls make cleaning simple and efficient. A negative pressure airflow design prevents contaminants from escaping. Paper collectors reduce maintenance linked to waste inhalation, while removable trays and surfaces ensure effortless cleaning.
