FASTER SafeFAST Classic - Class II B2 microbiological safety cabinet
The FASTER SafeFAST Classic - Class II B2 microbiological safety cabinet offers laboratory professionals a reliable solution for personal, product and environmental protection. Thanks to its 100 per cent exhaust air volume without recirculation and its compliance with the NSF/ANSI 49 standard, it is a first-class alternative to comparable models. Especially in environments where the highest safety standards are required, this workbench ensures a clean, laminar air flow and a controlled working atmosphere for demanding microorganism and cell culture applications.
Powerful and safe working environment
This safety cabinet has been specially designed for laboratories and research facilities that require maximum safety and comfort. High-quality materials such as stainless steel in the usable space ensure a long service life and a hygienic work surface. It impresses with the following features:
- Energy-efficient operation with <281 W energy consumption
- Low-noise operation at <53 dB(A)
- Motorised, fully hinged front panel for easy cleaning
- Segmented stainless steel work surface for optimum hygiene
- Multifunctional display with PLC control for precise airflow and safety control
- Safety glass side panels and integrated media connections
- NSF/ANSI 49 certification for comprehensive protection
The combination of personal, product and environmental protection makes the workbench ideal for sensitive work with pathogenic germs and safe cell culture processes. The continuous renewal of the air with a regulated inflow and downflow system (0.45 m/s inflow, 0.35 m/s downflow) also increases the reproducibility of the results and prevents cross-contamination. The robust design also reduces vibrations, which is extremely important for delicate laboratory activities such as pipetting or overlay procedures.
Various model sizes (0.9 m to 1.8 m wide) and the generously dimensioned working areas (up to 1802 mm usable width) allow flexible adaptation to the requirements of research, diagnostics and production. An ergonomically optimised control panel improves handling and provides intuitive access to fans, lighting and safety-related functions. All versions have an electrical connection of 1Ph+E - 230 V 50 Hz, allowing them to be easily integrated into many laboratory environments.
Certifications and standards
The safety cabinet meets the requirements of NSF/ANSI 49, which is internationally recognised as the standard for the protection of users and samples in microbiological laboratories. Thanks to extensive quality assurance processes during manufacture and the use of corrosion-resistant materials, it remains reliable over the long term. In addition, the robust design complies with relevant European safety standards in terms of electrical safety and mechanical stability.
Application examples
This workbench is ideal for activities that require protection and sterile conditions. Typical areas of application include:
- Microbiological research with germ suspensions and pathogens
- Virological work, e.g. for the isolation of virus particles
- Haematological investigations and sample processing for blood analyses
- Cell culture processes for genetics and biotechnology
- Highly sensitive manipulation of test samples in medical diagnostics laboratories
In general, the system can be used wherever clean air flows, protective functions and an ergonomic working environment are essential
FAQ
How can the windscreen be cleaned
?
The motorised windscreen can be opened completely for easy cleaning of the inside. This makes it easier to disinfect the windscreen and reduces the risk of contamination.
Does the air have to be recycled or does it escape completely?
As this is a system with 100% exhaust air volume, there is no recirculation. The contaminated air is completely filtered and discharged from the work area, ensuring maximum safety.
Which connections are available
Depending on the model size, up to three media connections (19 mm diameter) and two or three 230 V sockets are integrated on the side panels. This makes it easy to integrate additional laboratory equipment or supply lines.
How loud is the operation of the workbench?
The maximum noise level is only 53 dB(A). This enables pleasant and low-noise operation, even during long periods of work in the laboratory.
Conclusion
This high-performance safety cabinet offers comprehensive protection for microbiological and cell-based work. Its energy-efficient operation, robust stainless steel construction, flexible size selection and convenient cleaning options guarantee a high level of user-friendliness and a safe, clean laboratory environment. Specially designed for demanding applications, it fulfils the strictest quality and safety standards, making it a reliable long-term investment for professional laboratory facilities.
