DUST & FUME EXTRACTION FEATURE DOWNFLOW BENCH OFFERS FUME PROTECTION


Bigneat emphasises in the choice of name for its new workstation that this recirculatory filtration fume system has consistent airflow ensuring the integrity of the ‘working safe-zone’ and providing the user with unhindered accessibility. Most laboratories follow ‘good practice’


guidelines and staff are encouraged to use safety hoods for the handling of chemicals and powders that might become airborne and potentially contaminate the working environment. Occasionally however, it may not be convenient or possible to undertake a procedure in a hood. In Bigneat’s continuing quest to supply equipment to improve safety in the laboratory to provide cost effective, convenient, fume and particle removal for people who need at-the-bench safety, they have announced the launch of Optiflow. Optiflow is a small bench-mounted ductless fume cabinet, downflow bench, hood, workstation which protects the user from chemical vapours, fumes or particles depending which type of filtration is chosen. Carbon filtration retains chemical fumes and vapours and HEPA filtration retains dusts and particles. Optiflow provides unrestricted access for procedures and


handlings that are difficult to perform within a standard fume cabinet and because it is a ductless system this compact and portable unit can be installed onto an existing work surface, located where it is most needed. “I can honestly say that Bigneat now offers the most comprehensive range of safety cabinets and workstations on the market,” comments managing director Robert Monks. “Every day I am proud to tell people that we design our systems in the UK and manufacture here too.” Bigneat is an innovator in air system design for ductless recirculatory filtration cabinets and safety enclosures. In recent years it has become the world’s No 1 manufacturer of large ductless enclosures for the containment of laboratory automation and robotics systems. The company meets the requirements of these laboratories at the leading edge of life sciences and pharmaceutical research that demand quality and consistent performance of all systems used.
