The Lab Companion PW-11 PCR Workstation is specially designed to minimize the sample contamination during PCR applications by combining ISO Class 4 (US Class 10) clean air environment with UV light sterilization capability.
Filtration Features
- ISO Class 4 (US Class 10) HEPA filter for optimal protection against cross-contamination
- Neoprene gaskets ensuring that the HEPA filter is airtight to the body unit
- Durable HEPA filter (The HEPA filters life span depending on the test room conditions has a life span of 3 years.)
- High-quality polyester fiber pre-filter (with minimal pressure loss and 85% arrestance on the A.F.I. test) for trapping larger particles and increasing the life of the main HEPA filter
- Convenient change of filter cartridges by opening the upper front cover
- Adjustable digital blower speed switch located in the front with use of large capacity blower is adopted into the equipment
Safety Features
- Built-in safety interlock switch which shuts off the UV light automatically when the door is opened
- UV-blocking door and side panels made of transparent acrylic resin providing clear inside view
- Audible alarm for protecting the samples against UV over-exposure
- Protection against overcurrent
Constructional Features
- Effective sterilization using a long-life 254 nm UV lamp (average life spen : 8,000 hour lifespan)
- Anti-glare fluorescent lamp installed on the center ceiling of the workspace area minimizing shadows and relieving eye strain
- Programmable digital UV light timer with Delayed OFF function (maximum 30 min)
- User-friendly microprocessor-based control panel with an LCD and responsive touch buttons
- Easy blower speed adjustment by the control panel
