20090215376 | LABORATORY CONTAINMENT SYSTEM - A laboratory bench-top fume hood comprises an enclosure containing a working chamber with a frontal opening for manual access and airflow into the chamber. A plenum behind the working chamber is connectable to an air extraction system. An apertured, curved baffle plate separates the working chamber from the plenum, and is convex from the plenum side, improving airflow and increasing usable volume of the working chamber. Slots in the baffle plate may be fitted with guide vanes extending into the plenum. A slot adjacent a roof of the working chamber is effective for creating evenly-distributed air flows. The roof may be curved to encourage an airflow to follow the roof profile to the baffle plate. Sidewalls of the working chamber may bow outwardly but converge towards the opening. The baffle plate may comprise a set of separately dismountable panels, to aid cleaning and provide access to the plenum. | 08-27-2009 |
20090170418 | CONTROLLED ENVIRONMENT CABINET - A controlled environment cabinet comprises a working chamber made up of clear panels and a stainless steel frame. Two frontal panels may be raised on hinges to access an interior of the chamber. Working armports are provided, closed by a flexible membrane, which is slit such that an operator may pass an arm into the chamber, but the membrane closes around the arm, restricting airflow out of the chamber. An air treatment unit is supplied with air from the chamber by a fan/filter unit. The air treatment unit can raise or lower the temperature and relative humidity of the air, and the fan/filter unit contains a HEPA filter to remove particulates suspended in the air. The treated air is passed back to the chamber. Controls are provided, whereby a desired temperature, humidity and air flow rate or rate of atmosphere exchange within the chamber may be set. | 07-02-2009 |
