The Labcaire PCR8 Prep Station has been designed for use where contaminant free PCR needs to be performed but also where operator protection is required.

The cabinet offers clean air over the worksurface to better than Class 100, whilst also offering full containment to BS EN 12469:2000, therefore protecting the operator from any hazardous materials.

The cabinet comes complete with a timed UC light and interlocked lightweight door to allow for safe and automatic sterilisation of the enclosure, along with implements such as flasks, pipettes and sample tubes between amplifications.

Airflow alarms are fitted as standard on both the laminar flow and face velocity airspeeds whilst a uniform face velocity is achieved with the unique air intake grille configuration. Safety interlocks are also used on the folding sash, ensuring 100% safe and efficient operation at all times.

The cabinet is constructed of epoxy powder coated Zintec mild steel with stainless steel worksurface and clear glazing to three sides. The clear panels used in conjunction with overhead internal lighting ensure maximum illumination of the working area.

Containment and laminar flow are achieved with the use of HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air) filters making the cabinet easy to install as no connection to services are required, other than mains electricity.
