Weighing powders can and is often a hazardous process requiring varying degrees of protection for the operator.

Powder weighing presents a number of considerations in the cabinet design, not least how stable the cabinet is allowing for sensitive weighing measurements and of course the protection against a solid (powder) as opposed to an aerosol (the normal usage of a microbiological (biohazard) safety cabinet - msc).

Essentially powder weighing cabinets fall into two categories: 1) the simple (relatively inexpensive) inward airflow design (very popular) incorporating a shield for the balance, thus reducing the effects of the inward airflow and 2) when protection is required for both the operator and the material in the cabinet a specially modified class II type msc.

The simple inflow cabinet as mentioned above is normally a relatively inexpensive piece of equipment where as the modified class II msc (if it's done right) can be several times more expensive depending on a number of usage/design factors.
