Section 3 Cabinet Start-Up
• Keep activity in the room to a minimum when the cabinet is in use.

• Keep all laboratory doors closed to prevent drafts that will disturb
critical airflow characteristics.

• Pre-plan cabinet use, and place everything required for the complete
procedure a minimum of 6” inside the cabinet.

• Place all sterile and/or particulate free objects nearest the HEPA filter.

• Segregate clean and dirty materials.

• Practice good aseptic technique to insure safe use of the cabinet.

• HEPA filters are fragile. Do not puncture the filter or get it wet. Avoid
discharging syringes toward the filter.

• Check the prefilter regularly and replace as necessary. This will increase
the life of the HEPA filter.

Use of Auxiliary The use of auxiliary equipment in the cabinet is acceptable only if the
proper precautions are taken. Any appliance used in the work area will
Equipment in Cabinet cause turbulence and disturb airflow. Use of such equipment should be
carefully managed. The equipment should be placed at the rear of the work
space where air turbulence will have a minimal effect.

Cabinet Check Check the supply and exhaust filters for leaks. Follow the leak check
procedure.

3-2 Lam Flow Workstation Thermo Scientific

Section 4 Operation

Before operating the cabinet, the user should become familiar with the
cabinet controls.

Control and • Blower Switch

Indicating Devices The blower switch controls the on/off power to the blower.

• Light Switch
The light switch controls power to the fluorescent lights in the work area
or the optional ultra-violet light.

• Optional Static Pressure Gauge (In. W.G.)

The static pressure gauge, located on the control panel, measures the air
pressure differential across the filters, providing an indication of filter
“loading”. As the filters become loaded, the resistance to air passage
increases, and the reading on the static pressure gauge increases accord-
ingly. When the reading increases by 50% (from original measurement),
cabinet airflow should be checked with a thermoanemometer by a quali-
fied service technician. The filters must be replaced if proper airflow can-
not be obtained. Note that the static pressure gauge should not be used
as a direct measure of airflow.

• Blower Speed Control

The blower speed control, located on the printed circuit control board, is
used to adjust the air velocity from the blower motor. Refer to Figure 4-
1. A clockwise turn of the screw adjustment (as viewed from the top of
the control panel) will increase air velocity.

Caution Blower speed was preset at the factory and should only be changed
by a qualified technician. s

Certification Testing
Section 5
Procedure
A list of certification companies is included on the Thermo website, or call
the Technical Services department. See Page iv.

Certification of the Caution Shipping stress can affect the integrity of the cabinet. Certification
Cabinet by qualified certification personnel only is necessary after installation. s

Certification is recommended:
~ On installation,
~ Annually,
~ If cabinet is moved,
~ After HEPA filter(s) replacement,
~ After inside cabinet service work.

On-site Certification Due to the stress of shipping and handling and the fragile nature of the
HEPA filters, the cabinet must be thoroughly tested when it has been
placed in its final location. The following tests should be performed for
Standard 209B:

• HEPA Filter Leak Test (DOP Test)

• Air Velocity Profile Test

These tests must be performed by qualified service specialists who are

familiar with the methods and procedures of certifying biological safety
cabinets.

The certification should be performed upon installation, annually

thereafter, after filter changes, and after cabinet relocation.

Note Unless this certification was expressly called for in the specification,
quotes and/or purchase order, the cost for this on-site testing is to be paid
for by the customer. s

Section 6 Routine Maintenance
Recommended routine maintenance information follows.

Check Static Pressure Note In order to provide an accurate reading, the indicating needle of the
Gauge “Zero” static pressure gauge should be precisely at zero when the cabinet is
completely shut off. If the cabinet is connected to a central exhaust system,
the exhaust system must also be shut off. s

Following HEPA filter replacement, the static pressure gauge should be

rechecked for proper zeroing when the cabinet is shut off. When the
cabinet is started up and the proper air flow balance has been attained,
take a reading on the gauge and record it. This initial reading will serve as
a baseline indication of subsequent filter loading. when the reading
increases by approximately 50%, recheck the airflow balance. Filter
replacement will likely be required.

Replace the Pre-Filter A pre-filter is used in biological safety cabinets to extend the life of the
HEPA filters. the pre-filter is located on top of the unit under the air
intake grille. The pre-filter should be replaced three times a year,
depending upon environmental conditions.

Warning Do not turn the cabinet off. Allow it to run during the pre-filter
replacement procedure. s

The workstation is designed to be electrically safe in the following

environmental conditions:
• Indoors
• Altitude: Up to 2,000 meters
• Temperature: 5°C to 43°C
• Humidity: 80% RH at or below 31°C, decreasing linearly to
50% RH at 40°C
• Mains Supply Fluctuations: ± 10% of nominal.
• Installation Category II 1
• Pollution Degree 2 2
• Class of Equipment I

1 Installation category (overvoltage category) defines the level of transient overvoltage

which the instrument is designed to withstand safely. It depends on the nature of the
electricity supply and its overvoltage protection means. For example, in CAT II which is
the category used for instruments in installations supplied from a supply comparable to
public mains such as hospital and research laboratories and most industrial laboratories,
the expected transient overvoltage is 2500V for a 230V supply and 1500V for a 120V
supply.

2 Pollution degree describes the amount of conductive pollution present in the

operating environment. Pollution degree 2 assumes that normally only non-conductive
pollution such as dust occurs with the exception of occasional conductivity caused by
condensation.

Continuing research and improvements may result in specification changes at any time.

Locating a Certification Company

Biological safety cabinet certification consists of a series of tests designed to verify that
the cabinet is performing within operating parameters established by the manufacturer.

To assure that a biological safety cabinet is operating as intended, each cabinet should be
field-tested at the time of installation and at least annually thereafter. Cabinets should be
re-certified whenever HEPA filters are changed, internal maintenance is performed, or is
relocated.

Three industry-related organizations maintain lists of companies and individuals who are
active in the certification industry. You may contact these organizations at the addresses
listed below.

NSF International (NSF) and International Air Filtration Certifiers Association (IAFCA)
sponsor certifier accreditation programs. Accredited certifiers have demonstrated
proficiency at testing biological safety cabinets by successfully completing written and/or
practical examinations.
