Thermo Scientific 1300 Series Class II A2 Biosafety Cabinet with HEPA Filtration

The Thermo Scientific 1300 Series Class II Type A2 Biosafety Cabinet delivers critical containment and sterile work environment for biotechnology, molecular diagnostics, and bioprocessing workflows. Equipped with a 99.995% MPPS efficiency H14 HEPA filter (EN 1822 certified), this biosafety hood ensures high-efficiency filtration of airborne contaminants, essential in gene editing, synthetic biology, and pharmaceutical research labs.

Key features include:

• Energy-efficient brushless DC motor, reducing heat output and lowering lab air-conditioning costs, with a night mode reducing blower speed by 30% when idle.
• Ergonomic design with a 10° sloped work surface for reduced operator fatigue during prolonged use, roomy single-piece work area for easy cleaning, and armrests for comfortable access without disrupting airflow.
• Programmable UV lamp for environmental sterilization, supporting aseptic techniques critical in biomedical engineering and live-cell imaging.
• Comprehensive control panel, displaying airflow metrics, safety status, and alarms including smart flow indicators and obstruction warnings, ensuring adherence to stringent molecular biology containment protocols.
• Available in multiple nominal widths (3, 4, 5, or 6 feet) and interior dimensions suited for diverse lab spaces, with load-bearing capacity up to 110 lb (50 kg).
• Chamber surfaces in stainless steel or Smartcoat options, facilitating chemical resistance and durability.
• Noise levels maintained at a quiet 63 dBA, minimizing disruption in clinical diagnostics or research environments.
• Side panel ports for utilities enable integration with ancillary biomanufacturing equipment or instrumentation.

This biosafety cabinet is widely adopted in synthetic biology research and biopharmaceutical production pipelines, providing a controlled environment for sensitive molecular cloning, cell culture, and microbial studies. It supports compliance with biosafety standards, making it indispensable for research institutions focused on biotechnology and clinical laboratory safety.

Included components depend on SKU and are thoroughly tested with hydrogen peroxide decontamination and verified HEPA filter integrity. Buyers should consider filter replacement per validation requirements to maintain certification and optimal sterility.
