Cage changing hoods are a necessity when transferring your research animals from one location to another, during handling, or while changing their cages. Maintaining animal sterility while also preventing personal exposure to dander, fur, or other cage materials, cage changing hoods provide a safe, convenient manner of handling your animals. Hoods can come with different abilities such as HEPA filtered airflow, UV light, dual-sided access, and options with adjustable height.

| Description | Inquire | The AllerGard NU-621 is a singled-side Animal Transfer Station (ATS) that offers improved allergen protection through a dynamic air barrier of 75 fpm (0.38 m/s) through the front of the cabinet. The HEPA filtered laminar downflow air of 60 fpm (0.30 m/s) provides animal sterility within the work The AllerGard NU-621 is a singled-side Animal Transfer Station (ATS) that offers improved allergen protection through a dynamic air barrier of 75 fpm (0.38 m/s) through the front of the cabinet. The HEPA filtered laminar downflow air of 60 fpm (0.30 m/s) provides animal sterility within the work zone. In addition, HEPA filtered exhaust air provides environmental protection to the vivarium. Model NU-621 is available in three nominal widths to fit your available laboratory space or cage change workflow. A pre-filtration system extends supply and exhaust HEPA filter life. Constructed on a motorized based the NU-621 is perfect for multiple users. AllerGard NU-621 provides the perfect environment for medical veterinary directors and vivarium facility managers looking for an ergonomic solution to efficiently change mouse and rat cages in a sterile environment while improving allergen protection....

The LabGard model NU-677 utilizes an Energy Saver DC ECM motor optimally determined forward curved fan for each model size/width to maximize both energy efficiency and filter loading capacity. The Energy Saver ECM motor is controlled via a solid-state DC motor controller that provides automatic compensation (constant volume control) for both filter loading and line voltage variances.
The Laminar Flow Biosafety Cabinet, (LFBSC) is a product resulting from the development of the ""laminar flow"" principle (see airflow schematic) and the application of environmental controls as required in the field of biological research or chemical containment. The LFBSC, when used with proper technique, is an effective laboratory aid in obtaining the optimum control over product quality while reducing the potential for exposure of both product and personnel to airborne biological or particulate chemical agents in low to moderate risk-hazard research and drug preparation or product operations, as prescribed by the Center for Disease Control (CDC) Atlanta, Georgia.
The NU-677 bench LFBSC is known as a Class II, Type A2 Biosafety Cabinet. This is possible since NuAire's cabinet conforms to the following requirements:
- Maintain a minimum average s inflow velocity of 100 ft/min (0.51 m/s) through the work access opening;
- Have HEPA/ULPA filtered downflow air that is a portion of the mixed downflow and inflow air from a common exhaust plenum;
- May exhaust HEPA/ULPA filtered air back into the laboratory or to the environment through an external exhaust system connected to the cabinet with a canopy connection; and
- Have all biologically contaminated ducts and plenums under negative pressure or surrounded by negative pressure ducts and plenums.
If working with volatile chemicals, the unit must be connected to an external exhaust system. Type A2 cabinets may be used for work with volatile chemicals if permitted by a chemical risk assessment.... Read More |
