、Introduction
Investigators and technicians concerned with microbiological safety have, for many years,
utilized specialized containment enclosures to limit their exposure to harmful pathogens. In
addition, it is recognized that exacting research, as well as routine pathology, is often
compromised by environmental contamination. The ENVIRCO Class II Biohazard Cabinet is
designed to limit the contamination exposure of both the worker and the work when handling
biohazard material. The Class II enclosure is an open-face cabinet with a high volume of air
circulated through an internal HEPA filter. Air is drawn into the open front of the cabinet and
exhausted through a HEPA filter. The controlled airflow direction and volume balance provide
protection for the worker, the work (sample), and against cross-contamination within the
cabinet.
This product has been tested to meet the requirements of CAN/CSA-C22.2 No.61010-1,
