Product Description
Labculture® G4 Class II Type A2 Biological Safety Cabinet
The Labculture® G4 is an NSF-certified Class II Type A2 biological safety cabinet with the Centurion touchscreen controller and a 10-inch sash working opening — two inches more reach than a standard 8-inch cabinet. Its DC ECM motor delivers up to 70% energy savings compared with an AC motor and holds airflow steady through building voltage fluctuations and filter loading. The ULPA filter creates an ISO Class 3 work zone, ten times cleaner than the industry-standard ISO Class 5, with the same 10-year filter life and replacement cost as a HEPA.
Features
 | Centurion Touchscreen Controller Safety information and cabinet alarms shown on a 3D BSC diagram, with clear instructions for each alarm type and a selectable Quickstart mode. Centered and angled down for easy reach and viewing. |
| Dimmable LED Adjustable work zone brightness at an ideal 1200 lux. Saves energy and optimizes work comfort. | |
 | Cabinet Construction Stainless steel side walls with side capture zones and negative pressure to optimize containment. |
 | Single-Piece Work Tray Large, recessed and spill retaining, with support beams for less vibration and a holder for easy drain pan cleaning. |
 | Raised Ergonomic Arm Rest Durable stainless steel arm rest for a comfortable working posture. |
 | Removable Paper Catch Easy to clean and ready to accept an optional pre-filter. |
| USB Port and Remote Modbus USB port to access the cabinet data log and connect to your BMS. Remote Modbus lets you reach the cabinet securely from external devices. | |
 | Energy-Efficient DC ECM Blower Up to 70% less energy than an AC motor, with airflow that stays stable through building voltage fluctuations and filter loading. Standby mode reduces power consumption by up to 80%. |
| ULPA Filter 10x the filtration efficiency of a HEPA filter. Creates an ISO Class 3 work zone instead of the industry-standard ISO Class 5, with the same 10-year filter life and replacement cost. | |
 | Isocide™ Antimicrobial Powder Coating Silver-ion impregnated powder coat eliminates 99.9% of surface bacteria within 24 hours of exposure. |
