UVP UV3 Hepa PCR Cabinet PCR Workstation

• PCR workstation for DNA/RNA amplification and manipulation.
• Sterile environment for sensitive molecular biology procedures.
• Contamination control during reagent preparation and sample handling.
• Use in research laboratories, diagnostic facilities, and academic institutions.

Typical footprint

For this class of equipment, units commonly have a compact benchtop design, typically around 60-90 cm wide.

Air filtration

Units of this type are equipped with HEPA filters, providing filtration efficiency of 99.99% for particles 0.3 microns and larger.

UV sterilisation

Typically includes a shortwave UV lamp for decontamination of the work surface between uses.

Construction material

Commonly constructed from robust materials such as stainless steel or epoxy-coated steel for durability and ease of cleaning.

Power supply

Units are typically designed for standard laboratory power, commonly 230V, 50Hz for the UK market.

Internal lighting

Often features fluorescent or LED lighting to illuminate the work area effectively.

• What is the primary purpose of a PCR cabinet?

  A PCR cabinet provides a clean, UV-sterilised environment to prevent contamination during sensitive molecular biology procedures, particularly Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR).

• Does this unit offer personal protection?

• How often should the HEPA filter be replaced?

• What maintenance is typically required for a UVP UV3 Hepa PCR Cabinet?

• Can this cabinet be used for cell culture?

Biosafety cabinets are valued for their critical role in protecting operators and samples during hazardous work. Buyers typically prioritise certification compliance and airflow integrity when purchasing used units. Industry sentiment emphasises the importance of verifying maintenance history and airflow testing records. Key strengths include durability of construction and long operational lifespans when properly maintained. Common considerations focus on filter condition, energy efficiency, and compatibility with existing laboratory infrastructure. Reliable performance and consistent operator protection remain central to buyer expectations.
