Laminar Flow Purpose Laminar flow in a bench used in microbiological inoculation.

It keeps sterile atmosphere to carry out microbiological inoculations. Conditions & Requirements: The bench shall be compatible with the climatic and other environmental conditions of Indian laboratories Specifications: Description

Horizontal laminar flow conforming to class 100 conditions of the U.S. Federal Standards 290 B Bench of 120 cm X 60 cm X 60 cm, with white sunmica top Double filtration of air and provision for UV light to make work area microbe free Filters with at least 98% efficiency for particles of 0.3 M or larger size Wood or melamine or equivalent Blower: 220 VAC 10%, 47 to 53 Hz UV Lamp and other fluoroscent light: 220 VAC 10%, 47 to 53 Hz with certification Provision for a UV tube light and a fluorescent tube light Tested for leaks and certified Blower: Dynamically balanced, and with at least 0.25 Horse Power electric motor operating on 220 VAC 10%, 47 to 53 Hz AC power supply Static pressure manometer to measure the air flow rate To avoid contamination during microbial inoculation, filtered air is blown on work bench from opposite side to make the working environment microbe free. The filtration of air is performed through filters having pore size < 0.3 M The filtration of air is performed through filters having
