The PCR Hood MSW-160 is a specialized enclosure designed to provide a sterile and contamination-free environment for sensitive Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) processes. This hood minimizes the risk of cross-contamination during DNA amplification by ensuring a clean, laminar flow of HEPA-filtered air over the work surface.
PCR Hood MSW-160
- No compromise when space is at a premium.
- Partially recirculating downflow cabinet with air being filtered by a HEPA (H14) filter with 99.995% overall collection efficiency on 0.1 – 0.2 m particles (MPPS), before entering the work area at a speed of 0.45 to 0.55 m/sec; this ensures a Class 100 (FED STD 209E) – ISO 5 (ISO 14644-1 Standard) environment throughout the work area.
- Two configurations are available: INWARD air barrier and OUTWARD air barrier, that can be easily chosen by a simple mechanical operation.
- INWARD air barrier. An air barrier is pulled through the front opening and recirculated with the downflow air by a motor blower. 70% of the air is returned to the work area through the main HEPA (H14) filter and 30% is exhausted into the environment through an air filter with gravimetric efficiency of 99% ensuring excellent product protection as well as an outstanding containment.
- Removable perforated work surface and back wall of the work chamber made of AISI 304 stainless steel
- Front panels in tempered glass
- Hinged front window
- Centrifugal Motor blower
- Soft-touch keys on the control panel provide control of fan and fluorescent lamps lighting
- Elapsed time-meter for HEPA filter (Option)
- Tubular Stand (Option)
- UV lamp.
