Laminar Air Flow

A laminar air flow workstation is a closed cabinet fitted with HEPA filtered air flow system with unidirectional constant flow of air with almost no or minimal turbulence. The air flow velocity remains between 0.4 m/s to 0.6 m/s. The purpose of using such workstations in laboratory is to create particle and bacteria free working environment to carry out specialized work. As these units discharge air towards user, they provide no personal protection but product protection from room contaminants.

Types

 Vertical Laminar Air flowIt is the most used type of laminar air flow. In vertical flow cabinet, room air is entered in working area through HEPA filter fitted on top of the cabinet. Thus, air flows downward (vertically) towards work surface and leaves the cabinet sweeping out particles and bacteria. 

Horizontal Laminar Air FlowIn horizontal air flow cabinet, room air is entered in working area through HEPA filter fitted on the back side of the cabinet. Filtered air flows horizontally towards the user creating sterile working environment.  

Construction

 These cabinets are ergonomically designed to provide long service life. Only thick metal sheets and pipes are used in construction so that you may get the finest and safest Laminar bench in the market today. There are 4 different MOC used.
