Biological safety cabinets are a mainstay of research involving microorganisms. The barrier they create between operator and work areas enables the safe and effective handling of a range of biological materials.

Esco, the world's largest manufacturer of biological safety cabinets, recently released its Airstream Generation 3, a Class II Type A2 biological safety cabinet incorporating years of manufacturing and user experience into a best in class product. The new Airstream carries the NSF 49 and UL 61010 certifications and features a DC electronically commutated motor, which delivers comparative energy savings of as much as 70% over legacy AC motors used in BSC operation.

The Airstream microprocessor controller, centered and angled down for easy reach and viewing, displays all important information for fast and reliable operation. Utilizing high efficiency ULPA filtration which provides an ISO Class 3 work zone, and ISOCIDE™ powder coat on all its external and interior painted surfaces, customers are ensured that both operators and the external lab environment are protected from harmful biological agents.
