THESE CABINETS
ARE SUITABLE FOR
HANDLING MICROORGANISMS AND
PATHOGENS

SafeFAST Top Microbiological Safety Cabinets belong to the latest


generation of laminar airflow systems manufactured by Faster S.r.l.,
in which the choice of materials of construction of the highest quality
guarantees conformity to the strictest safety standards.
SafeFAST Top vertical laminar flow cabinets are Class II Microbiological Safety Cabinets - designed and built to performance requirements of the EN-12469:2000 European Standard, with 70% of the air
re-circulated via the main H14 HEPA filter within the cabinet, whilst
the remaining 30% is discharged through an exhaust H14 HEPA filter.
Safety Cabinets with automatic regulation and microprocessor based
monitoring systems; these cabinets are suitable for handling microorganisms and pathogens as defined by the appropriate European
and other International Standards, current Health and Safety Guidelines and Legislation aimed at safeguarding health and safety of operators at work.

THE USER-FRIENDLY
PRACTICAL KEYBOARD

Microprocessor based monitoring system: full status report


provided via 2-line digital display by the new generation microprocessors which automatically control all functions and all
safety alarm systems ensuring that performance characteristics are maintained to EN12469:2000 requirements.
The user-friendly practical keyboard and the rear-lit LCD will
continuously display all required data keeping the user
constantly informed of the cabinet conditions in operation and in particular respect:

REMOVABLE WORK SURFACE


Work Surface in stainless steel
AISI-316L, consisting of sections
which are easily removable for
carrying out routine cleaning and/or
require autoclaving sterilization
procedures; perforated to ensure
an optimum degree of laminarity of
the airflow, together with a high resistance factor to the most effective chemical agents used for
disinfection. Single piece work
chamber Work chamber in stainless
steel AISI 304L, designed to fulfill
the requirements and pass the
cleanability tests according to
EN12469:2000.
COMPLETE OPERATOR, PRODUCT AND ENVIRONMENTAL
PROTECTION
Re-circulating and extractor
fans: Safe FAST Top Microbiological Safety Cabinets S Series
are supplied with single centrifugal fan, whilst version D Series
with double centrifugal fan to
provide complete operator, product and environmental protection. Moreover the D Series

fitted with double motor-fan are


designed and are also suitable to
discharge the filtered air outside
the laboratory through a ducting
system if required. SafeFAST
Top D Series, offers full protection to the operator, laboratory and environment in case of
failure of one of the two blowers.

DIRECT DUCTING
As standard supplied with 200mm
diameter collar on the top of the
cabinet for optional direct ducting to
facility exhaust system.

OPERATIONAL
PRINCIPLES

UV STERILIZING LAMP
UV sterilizing lamp (optional) installed on the front closure-panel of the
SafeFAST Top complete with two
switch-off countdown timers, one
variable on a 03 hours scale (1 minute steps), the other set to 3 fixed
hours.

The ambient air is drawn in from the


slots at the stainless-steel base of the
front opening and it then passes under
the work surface, from where it is
drawn up and blown into the plenum of
the re-circulating and exhaust fan(s).
The bio-dynamic sealing system of
the negative pressure plenum ensures
that all contaminated particles are kept
inside the system and are automatically drawn to the plenum or pressure
chamber to be captured by the main recirculating and exhaust HEPA filters.

CABINET ELEMENTS
1 automatic safety service connection for gas, 1 for vacuum and 1
electrical socket fitted as standard
in each size module.

The fan system assures that no part of


the cabinet comes ever under positive
contaminated pressure to the laboratory, thus protecting and preserving
the environment and operating personnel from exposure to agents of bio-contamination. 70% of the filtered air is
re-circulated (after passing through a
H14 HEPA) in a ISO 3 laminar flow pattern downwards into the work chamber
and the remaining 30% is exhausted to
atmosphere through another H14
HEPA filter)
