mscs--the class I safety cabinet (class 1 safety cabinet) |
|
|
Class I-en12469 definition: Safety cabinet with a front aperture through which the operator can carry out manipulations inside the cabinet and which is constructed so that the worker is protected and the escape of airborne particulate contamination generated within the cabinet is controlled by means of an inward airflow through the working front aperture and filtration of the exhaust air. The class I safety cabinet provides a wide performance envelope for the user from aerosol hazards and other particulate within the cabinets work area. All extract air is exhausted through hepa (high efficient particulate air) filtration generally to atmosphere although recirculation models are also available through MSCS. Inflow air velocity should be between 0.7 and 1.0 m/sec and by their design nature are less susceptible to poor working techniques of the user or less than ideal room air conditions. MSCS point out neither poor site conditions or poor techniques should not be tolerated in the modern safety conscious laboratory environment.
