• What is the primary function of a Class II Microbiological Safety Cabinet?

  A Class II cabinet provides triple protection: for the user from aerosols, for the product from contamination, and for the environment from hazardous biological agents through filtered exhaust.

• How often do HEPA filters typically need to be replaced?

• Can this cabinet be used for handling volatile chemicals or radionuclides?

• What maintenance is typically required for this type of equipment?

• Is installation complex for a used safety cabinet?

• What does 'full working condition' mean for a used safety cabinet?

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.
