Butterfly valves & HEPA filter canister
Butterfly valves & HEPA filter canister
Air tight welded and tested duct work pass actuated butterfly valves. The exhaust air passes special bio safety HEPA filter canisters, where the exhaust air is cleaned.


Airtight false ceiling with access hatch and diffusors
A rigid built, powder coated false ceiling made out of 2.5mm steel guarantees long term stability for air tightness and flexibility for future upgrades. With this system it is possible to safely penetrate with supply and return air through air hoods welded airtight to the ceiling plates.


Shower air lock door
Shower air lock doors are equipped with electro magnetic locks and access control. This way it is impossible to access both sides at the same time and guarantees a secured "shower out" of the lab personell. All the parameters of the laboratory can be adjusted by the operator through an easy to operate LCD panel.
