Monmouth Scientific has launched the Class II Microbiological Safety cabinet, designed and built in the company’s factory in the South West of England.
To ensure the best possible containment and product protection, the Monmouth Guardian MSCT1200 has been fully independently tested for compliance to BS EN12469:2000 by Public Health England (Porton Down).
The unique design and integration of the front screen, fan systems, HEPA filters and control system enable substantial internal height of the work area, whilst keeping the overall height of the cabinet low. When sat on a 900mm high work surface or base stand, the total height of the unit is 2230mm reducable even further using reduced height base stands.
“We designed the new cabinet with the customer in mind,” said David Pomeroy, Managing Director of Monmouth Scientific. “We have ensured the cabinet is one of the ’greenest’ on the market, with a power requirement of less than 120 watts, but also feature rich with full colour touch screen operation and monitoring, UV lighting and fully closing electric sash all included as standard.”
The Monmouth Guardian MSCT1200 offers ISO Class 4 clean air for product protection and has excellent containment characteristics ensuring compliance to British & European Standards. It is provided as a re-circulating or optionally ducted system and utilises an outlet H14 HEPA filter.
As a ducted unit it will feature a visible anti-blowback valve and then be connected to ducting via a thimble connection or VDV. As a recirculating system it can remain with a single H14 outlet HEPA filter to comply with BS EN12469:2000 or an additional H14 HEPA filter can be added to ensure compliance with BS5726:1992.
The MSCT1200 is fitted with the latest Visionaire Touch Screen Control System. The full colour screen measures 4.3” (11cm) across and has more than 130,000 pixels. The Visionaire control system has been designed and manufactured in the UK by Monmouth specifically for its range of laboratory cabinets and clearly identifies all cabinet operating parameters.
The Visionaire system also controls and monitors all other aspects of the unit’s operation and maintenance such as hours run, hours since last service, service dates and intervals, UV light hours run, filter fitted dates and replacement product codes, commissioning date. It alerts the user by way of audible and visual alarms should any of the operating parameters not be met.
