Stainless steel is highly durable, non-shedding and can withstand the rigorous cleaning protocols required in modern cleanrooms. AirClean Systems AC600 Series Vertical Laminar Flow Fume Hood Print AirClean Systems AC600 Series Vertical Laminar Flow Fume Hood For applications that are not hazardous to operator but require clean work area, choose an Airclean AC600 Series Vertical Laminar Flow Fume Hood. BVBI units are constructed from 100 stainless steel. Clean benches can be used for certain clean activities, such as the dust-free assembly of sterile equipment or electronic devices, and they should never be used when handling cell culture materials or drug formulations, or when manipulating potentially infectious materials. The top-down unidirectional flow of air makes Vertical Laminar Flow Hoods ideal for use with equipment, including TPN compounders. These devices only provide product protection. Horizontal laminar flow or vertical laminar flow “clean benches” are not biosafety cabinets these pieces of equipment discharge HEPA-filtered air from the back of the cabinet across the work surface toward the user, and they may expose the user to potentially hazardous materials. Vertical flow hoods, on the other hand, provide significant protection to the user and the cell culture. The flow can be horizontal, blowing parallel to the work surface, or it can be vertical, blowing from the top of the cabinet onto the work surface.ĭepending on its design, a horizontal flow hood provides protection to the culture (if the air flowing towards the user) or to the user (if the air is drawn in through the front of the cabinet by negative air pressure inside). Laminar flow hoods protect the working environment from dust and other airborn contaminants by maintaining a constant, unidirectional flow of HEPA-filtered air over the work area.
