Biological Safety Canopy Exhaust Connection Saves Energy and Improves Overall Safety Performance

With environmental resources becoming more and more limited and energy costs on the rise, reducing energy consumption is an important consideration for every laboratory. As one of the most frequently used devices in the laboratory, biological safety cabinets (BSCs) provide the primary source of containment for microbiological research but are often operated continuously, so conditioned air can add considerable operating costs to a laboratory over time. This white paper demonstrates how the FlexAIR reduces both total exhaust flow and the amount of conditioned air required, while providing a higher level of protection than traditional canopy connections.
