Starting the Biosafety Cabinet
1. To start the Biosafety Cabinet, raise the sash until its bottom edge
aligns with the sash position label on the left corner post. The decal is
shown in Figure 5-3.
2. Press the blower button to start the unit. The unit will run a self-test
for approximately 15 seconds. Additionally, you will be instructed to
“Please Wait” for three minutes to allow the cabinet to reach proper
operating conditions. If the display shows “sash is too high” and the
alarm sounds, recheck the sash position. If the display shows
“exhaust error”, the cabinet blower will shut off, and the audible
alarm will sound. Pressing the blower button again will restart the unit
for 15 second, after which, the Logic will again check the exhaust
airflow. IF THE CABINET KEEPS GOING INTO EXHAUST
ERROR, DO NOT USE THE CABINET UNTIL THE PROBLEM
HAS BEEN CORRECTED.
3. To turn the UV light on, the sash must be completely closed to
prevent the escape of any UV radiation. Push the UV light button to
activate the UV light.
Note: The sash must be completely closed for the UV light to activate.
