MILFORD, MA., (August 20, 2007) – Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., the world leader in serving science, today introduced the new Thermo Scientific 1300 Series A2 Class II biological safety cabinet. The 1300 Series platform offers the highest levels of safety and reliability with significantly improved energy efficiency, simpler operation and less maintenance than traditional cabinets. These features make both the 4 foot and 6 foot wide models a good choice for all laboratories that require stringent safety performance with reduced energy consumption.
With advanced internal airflow and motor technology, Thermo Scientific 1300 cabinets offer best-in-class safety, ergonomics, and energy efficiency. At full speed the motors consume significantly less energy than standard cabinets. To further conserve energy, the intelligent speed control automatically reduces blower speed to 30% when the window is closed. This unique technology extends HEPA filter life while ensuring a sterile working environment and saves energy to minimize operating costs. Noise output has also been reduced to <63 dB(A) (4 foot model), increasing user comfort. In addition, a simple-to-operate microprocessor control clearly displays essential operational, safety and service data.
The patented front window of the Thermo Scientific 1300 Series cabinet drops within its frame to enable full access to the upper inside window surfaces. All removable components, including the HEPA filters, can be changed from the front, minimizing filter replacement time. In addition, smooth components are used throughout the cabinet, virtually eliminating the risk of injury during routine cleaning, servicing, and maintenance procedures. The optional UV light is programmable from 1 hour to 24 hrs, reducing the need for bulb replacement, and the selection of fixed and adjustable stands provides the correct working height for all situations.
