Service Line Requirements
All service lines to the Purifier should be ¼ inch outside diameter, metal, and equipped
with an easily accessible shut-off valve, should disconnection be required. If the service
line pressure exceeds 100 PSI, it must be equipped with a pressure regulator to reduce
the line pressure.
Connecting Service Valves to Flammable Materials
Note: The use of flammable gases or solvents should be avoided in the Purifier. Open
flames in the cabinet will disrupt the laminar airflow in the cabinet and may damage the
HEPA filters. Flammable gases or solvents may reach explosive concentrations in the
cabinet or ductwork. If the customer feels that their procedure requires the use of an
open flame or flammable materials have them contact their institution’s safety office.
Connecting Service Valves to High Pressure Service
The use of air or gases under high pressure should be avoided as they may seriously
disrupt the airflow patterns in the cabinet.
Unpacking the Logic
Remove the carton by using a sharp box knife to cut the bottom edge of the carton at
the pallet. Lift the carton straight off of the Logic. Carefully cut away the plastic shrink
wrap from the Biosafety cabinet.
Moving the Logic
Do NOT remove the Logic from its shipping pallet until it is as close as possible to its
final location. This will minimize the possibility of damaging the cabinet while it is being
transported.
Move the unit by using a floor jack, or a furniture dolly underneath the unit. DO NOT
move the cabinet by tilting it onto a hand truck.
After you verify the Purifier model, move the cabinet to its final location.
