Safety cabinets are specialised laboratory equipment designed to ensure the safety of users, samples and the laboratory environment, particularly when handling hazardous biological substances. EN-12469:2000 defines different classes of safety cabinets, including Class 2. Some characteristics of Class 2 safety cabinets are listed below.
Class 2 safety cabinets provide effective user protection by creating a barrier between the work area and the environment. The air in the work area is purified by a HEPA or ULPA filter to minimise the spread of biological particles.
Laminar airflow refers to an evenly directed airflow across the entire width of the workbench work surface. This airflow is created by a HEPA or ULPA filter that cleans the air and directs it to the work area, preventing contamination of the sample.
These cabinets provide a high level of biological protection for the user and the environment. They are suitable for working with micro-organisms in biosafety risk groups 1 to 3.
EN-12469:2000 specifies the design, construction and performance requirements for Class 2 biological safety cabinets. This standard therefore provides a framework for manufacturers to ensure that their products meet the required safety standards.
