Weiber Class I Biological Safety Cabinets are designed to provide protection to both operator and environment. The Biosafety Cabinet Class I is a partially enclosed ventilated cabinet. Air flows inside the cabinet at speed of 0.7–1.0 m/s. The inward airflow exhaust through HEPA to minimize the escape of airborne aerosols generated within the cabinet. The Weiber Company has developed a wide variety of biological safety cabinets designed to meet diverse applications in the life science, clinical, pharmaceutical and industrial laboratory. Because of the critical nature of laboratory work, Weiber products are designed and manufactured to meet specific needs of the workplace, and to operate within a performance envelope which guarantees the widest margin of safety and product protection under demanding laboratory conditions. The primary purpose behind the construction of a BSC is to serve as the primary means to protect the laboratory worker and the surrounding environment from pathogens. The various biomedical laboratories requires a scientific equipment to keep reagents or cultures free from microorganisms. Biological safety cabinets Class I are designed to full-fill these lab requirements providing protection for both the environment and the worker. The air in these cabinets is filtered through HEPA filters and depending on the design type some of the air may be re-circulated. HEPA filters are effective at trapping particulates and infectious agents but not at capturing volatile chemicals or gases. Class I Biosafety cabinets may be used to enclose equipment or procedures with a potential to generate aerosols such as tissue homogenization, sonication, or cage cleaning/manipulation. The cabinet is suitable for work with low to moderate risk biological agents (i.e. hazard groups 1, 2 & 3). It can be used for work with radionuclides and volatile toxic chemicals. The Class I biological a Safety cabinet offers personnel protection. The Operator protection can be affected by any disturbance to the air barrier such as aerosols releasing from high-energy operations like centrifuges, human activity near the cabinet, closing and opening of a nearby room door or air discharges from a ventilation supply grille located near the cabinet. All biological safety cabinets manufactured by Weiber are inspected according to accepted international standards to verify that they are safe in operation. Personnel protection is made possible by constant flow of air inside the cabinet and away from the user. Weiber Class I are NABL, ISO and CE certified. This stainless steel cabinet may be used in three operational modes: with a full width open front and are equipped with several accessories such as ultraviolet germicidal lights, fault interpreter for electrical devices, microscopic viewing device, alarm systems, biological air sampler and castor wheels with brake system for easy movement in the laboratory. Weiber manufactures energy efficient biosafety cabinets to provide personnel, product and environment protection.
