Laminar Air Flow Workstation (VERTICAL)

The Laminar Air Flow Workstation (VERTICAL) from AGN Enterprises is a laboratory workstation designed to provide a clean, controlled working environment for suitable procedures that require filtered airflow. The workstation directs filtered air vertically through the work area, helping reduce airborne particulate contamination around the working surface.

This equipment is suitable for microbiology, biotechnology, tissue culture, plant tissue culture, pharmaceutical research, molecular biology, and educational laboratories. Moreover, its vertical airflow arrangement provides a practical workspace for laboratories that require a cleaner environment for appropriate sample and material handling.

A laminar airflow workstation is primarily intended to protect the product or work area, rather than provide the same personnel and environmental protection as a certified biological safety cabinet. Therefore, laboratories should select the appropriate equipment according to their application and risk assessment.

• Construction:
• • Outer body made of mild steel, finished with durable powder coating.
  • Workbench made of 304-grade stainless steel perforated sheet for hygienic and corrosion-resistant surface.
• Air Flow System:
  • Vertical laminar airflow for top-down sterile air distribution.
  • High-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter typically rated at 99.97% efficiency at 0.3 microns (specification may vary by model).
• Control & Monitoring:
  • Microprocessor control system with Touch Panel LCD Display.
  • Digital manometer for pressure monitoring.
  • Filter failure alarm for timely maintenance and safety assurance.
• Lighting & Safety:
  • LED white light for clear visibility.
  • UV germicidal light for disinfection (with micro switch to automatically turn off UV when door is open).
  • Motorized vertical glass door for smooth, touch-free operation.
• Additional Utilities:
  • Gas cock for Bunsen burner or gas-based utilities.
  • Internal 15/5 amp socket for powering lab equipment.
• User-Friendly Features:
  • Soft-touch switches for blower, UV light, and other functions.
  • Quiet operation with low vibration levels for sensitive procedures.

Benefits for Laboratory Work

A controlled airflow workstation can help laboratories maintain a cleaner work area during appropriate procedures. Therefore, it can contribute to more consistent laboratory workflows where airborne particles may affect sensitive materials.

The vertical configuration also provides a convenient working arrangement for users. Moreover, the dedicated work zone helps organize instruments, samples, and consumables during laboratory procedures.

However, the workstation should not be used as a substitute for a biological safety cabinet when personnel or environmental protection from hazardous biological materials is required. The correct equipment should always be selected based on the laboratory’s risk assessment.

Suitable for Research and Educational Laboratories

The Laminar Air Flow Workstation (VERTICAL) is suitable for schools with advanced science laboratories, colleges, universities, biotechnology institutes, pharmaceutical research facilities, and other scientific institutions.

Teachers can use the workstation to demonstrate clean laboratory techniques, while researchers can incorporate it into suitable sample-handling and preparation workflows. As a result, it can serve both educational and research requirements.

Why Choose AGN Enterprises?

AGN Enterprises supplies laboratory equipment for educational, scientific, research, and institutional applications. The Laminar Air Flow Workstation (VERTICAL) offers laboratories a practical vertical filtered-air workspace for suitable contamination-sensitive procedures.

Before ordering, laboratories should confirm the required working area, airflow configuration, filtration system, electrical specifications, installation requirements, and applicable performance or certification requirements.
