Aspirated bench
AB Activa 180
Technical evolution of a vacuum bench entirely made of 304L stainless steel, initially designed to receive disposable containers in samples, normally preserved in formalin. It is equipped with a fume extraction system from the perforated work surface and the rear wall, and arranged for the fume exhaust to the outside, designed to guarantee a high level of personal protection from chemical risk or treatment of substances dangerous to humans. Transportable device, it is suitable for analysis laboratories, sector, histology and pathological anatomy, pharmacies, welding laboratories etc.
The air sucked from the worktop and the perforated rear bottom, enters the sealed compartment containing filters and motor and positioned in the underlying bench, passes through 2 activated carbon filters specific for the substances to be neutralized, and is subsequently completely expelled by the fan after purification through the channel obtained in the double central rear bottom, and conveyed into the 200mm flanged collector on the upper side of the bottom itself, convenient for connection to the expulsion pipe if required.
The worktop is composed of a flat aspirated surface with a 40mm raised perimeter to prevent liquid leaks; there are a series of perforated shelves recessed that can be removed for washing in an autoclave; on request, a rinse tank and a swan neck or mixer dispenser can be positioned on the right or left.
The flow of the aspirated air is considerable, guaranteed by a motor fan from a leading international manufacturer, very silent and with high prevalence. The control panel is inserted in the front left side of the bench and includes, in addition to the electronic control and monitoring board, a UNEL/Schuko type electrical socket for any small instruments.
The lower side of the bench consists of the central technical compartment for filters and fan, closed by a panel with screws and opened by a maintenance technician to replace the filters; on the right and/or left there are storage compartments useful for storing laboratory materials, which can be opened with doors equipped with a handle.
The strong points of the aspirated bench are the sturdiness of the product (12/10" steel thickness) and the possibility of lateral and upper closure in steel / polycarbonate, for transformation into a real chemical hood.
