BSC-4FA2: Reliable Protection and User Comfort for Demanding Laboratories
The BSC-4FA2 by BioBase is a biological safety cabinet designed to meet the high biosafety standards required in research, analysis, and diagnostic environments. This Class II Type A2 model offers triple protection: for the operator, the product, and the environment. Thanks to its airflow system, it ensures 70% recirculation of filtered air and 30% exhaust, maintaining constant safety in the work area while preserving a sterile environment.
The integrated LCD control panel of the BSC-4FA2 provides a clear and dynamic display of all essential data: airflow velocity, filter and UV lamp runtime, temperature, humidity, pressure, and total operating time. This interface greatly simplifies daily cabinet management and enhances intervention precision. The user benefits from simple, intuitive operation supported by a microprocessor-based control system.
The motorized front window, made of UV-resistant tempered glass, allows for safe and comfortable handling. It can be adjusted automatically or manually and features a dual-trigger sensor-assisted closing function that enables UV sterilization without manual intervention. The mechanism is designed to limit airflow turbulence and optimize ergonomics during prolonged use, with a 10° tilt angle to reduce glare and improve visual comfort.
In terms of safety, the BSC-4FA2 is equipped with multiple visual and audible alarms to alert users of any anomalies: incorrect airflow speed, high filter pressure, improperly positioned front window, or power failure. In the event of a power outage, a memory function automatically restores previous settings upon restart, ensuring uninterrupted operation without compromising safety.
The work area, fully constructed from 304 stainless steel, is surrounded by negative pressure to prevent contaminant leaks. The monobloc design of the work zone facilitates cleaning, reduces residue buildup, and ensures optimal hygiene. Two ULPA filters provide 99.9995% filtration efficiency for 0.12 µm particles, meeting the strictest biosafety standards.
To enhance its effectiveness, the cabinet includes a germicidal UV lamp emitting at 253.7 nm, along with two powerful LED lamps providing a brightness of 21,000 Lux. The entire system is supported by a low-consumption EC fan, both powerful and quiet, contributing to a noise level below 67 dB, in compliance with NSF/ANSI 49 standards.
The unit is compatible with several accessories including a stand, drainage valve, two waterproof sockets, one UV lamp, two LED lamps, a water tap, and a stainless steel gas tap.
The BSC-4FA2 stands out as a complete, reliable, and intuitive solution for professionals committed to working in a safe and controlled environment.
