JB-18A Class II A2 Biosafety Cabinet: Advanced Protection for Your Lab
Ensure a safe and sterile experiment environment with the JB-18A Biosafety Cabinet. Certified to EN 12469 standards, this Class II A2 cabinet is engineered to protect users, samples, and the environment through a precisely controlled airflow system. It creates an essential air barrier, effectively separating the internal workspace from the surrounding laboratory air to prevent cross-contamination.
Key Features:
Superior Filtration and Airflow
- ULPA Filtration: Equipped with an advanced ULPA filter, the JB-18A achieves a typical efficiency of 99.999% for particles between 0.1 and 0.3 μm. This provides a significantly cleaner and more reliable workspace compared to traditional HEPA filters.
- Stable Airflow: The cabinet maintains a consistent inflow velocity of 0.53 m/s and a downflow of 0.31 m/s (at a 210 mm sash height), ensuring optimal containment and sample protection.
High-Performance and Energy-Efficient Motor
- Durable ECM Motor: The integrated Electronically Commutated Motor (ECM) generates minimal heat and maintains stable airflow even with voltage fluctuations or increased filter load, ensuring consistent performance.
- Quiet Operation: Operating at a noise level below 60 dB, the ECM motor is significantly quieter than conventional AC motors, reducing user fatigue during long experiments.
Intelligent Operation and IoT Capabilities
- Smart Interlocking System: The cabinet features a patented system (Patent 10-1451382) that links the sash door to the UV lamp, fluorescent light, and blower. This enables an "Auto Start" mode where functions activate automatically upon opening or closing the sash, streamlining your workflow. A "Manual" mode is also available for full user control.
- Remote and Hands-Free Control: Use a Bluetooth-enabled tablet to monitor the device status and adjust settings without direct contact, minimizing the risk of cross-contamination.
- Mobile Monitoring (Optional): With the LC GreenBox system, receive real-time alerts and monitor temperature and airflow velocity directly on your smartphone, ensuring your experiments are always within safe parameters.
- GMP Compliance (Optional): Integrate with the 21 CFR Part 11 compliant LC DataKeeper for secure data management, ideal for facilities requiring GMP audit trails.
Uncompromised User Safety
- Comprehensive Alarms: The system provides immediate visual and audio alarms for deviations in velocity and temperature, abnormal power supply, sensor errors, or when consumables like filters and lamps need replacement.
- Shock-Resistant Safety Glass: The sash is made from UV-protecting tempered glass. In the unlikely event of breakage, it shatters into small, blunt pieces to prevent user injury.
User-Centric Design for Enhanced Convenience
- Ergonomic and Easy to Clean: The seamless single-plate stainless steel workstation, removable working tray with handles, and built-in drain valve make cleaning effortless and prevent microbial growth. An ergonomic armrest ensures comfort during extended use.
- Functional Workspace: The STS 304 side walls include built-in steel plates, turning them into magnetic boards for notes and protocols. Two covered IP54 outlets and service valves are embedded for easy use of powered equipment within the workspace.
- Post-Purge Function: After use, the fan can be set to run for a designated period to filter out any remaining contaminants, ensuring the cabinet is clean for the next use.
