Horizontal Laminar Flow Cabinets

HZ-1, HZ-2, HZ-3 & HZ-4 

Cruma-HZ1-HZ2-HZ3-HZ4-Cabina-Flujo-Laminar-Horizontal
Class ISO 5 horizontal laminar flow cabinets (former class 100) are ideal for jobs where it is necessary to ensure the products are protected from external contamination and cross-contamination. Thanks to the specific way the side walls, located inside the inner perimeter of the filter, are assembled it is possible to prevent any contaminants that may be present from entering the work area through the filter frame thanks to the Venturi effect. The air collected from the environment is pre-filtered using polyurethane at high weight efficiency and, pushed by the fan engine to the retention plenum, it then passes through the absolute filter and is released into the work area. The air emerges from the H14 HEPA filter located in front of the operator, moving in a compact, laminar fashion creating a Class ISO 4, hence sterile, work space and making sure no contaminating particles are close to the product being handled..
ico-cruma-proteccion
Sample Protection. Total Sterility

Cruma's horizontal laminar flow cabinets guarantee a laminar stream of air with class ISO 4 air purity pursuant to Standard EN14644-1 thanks to our intelligent H14 HEPA filters, providing a minimum efficiency rate of 99.995% for 0.3 µm particles.

These can be used in areas where it is difficult to extract contaminated air, such as the lower floors of buildings, and they can be placed in different locations, which it means that they can be easily relocated if needed.
ico-cruma-ahorro
Economic Savings and Easy to Set-Up
 
No expensive works are necessary to install conduits to extract the gas to the outside which means there are no additional costs and no need to interrupt a laboratory working at full capacity.
ico-cruma-ahorro-energetico
Energy Savings
 
Unlike other brands, our cabinets do not consume the air conditioning of the laboratory, which substantially reduces energy costs: the filtered air is not expelled to the outside, but recirculated back into the laboratory free of contaminating particles.

Advantages

 

Manufacture: the external surfaces are made of cold-rolled steel, coated with white epoxy, enamelled in ovens at 200ºC and resistant to the chemical compounds used for sterilization.

Work Surface: the surface of the work chamber is made of white secured glass, highly resistant to impacts and chemical attacks.

Absolute H14 HEPA Filter with a flow equalizer and an efficiency rate of over 99.995% for particles measuring 0.3 microns. Standards MIL-F51068C and BS 3298.

Fan motors: double aspiration centrifugal fans, capable of providing a laminar flow in the work space, above all as regards dealing with filter saturation to a maximum value of 400 Pascal.

Control Panel: Soft-touch keyboard with a switch for the LED lamps, UV ultraviolet lights, a maintenance system to control the airspeed through the HEPA filter that is electronically self-regulated and a control key to reduce speed in ECO mode.

Lighting: LED lamps located in the centre with a prismatic diffusing screen to improve the distribution of light on the work surface.

In our horizontal laminar flow cabinets the stream of air passes through the H14 HEPA filter (manufactured pursuant to EN-1822) at a constant speed, travelling horizontally through the cabinet in a laminar flow and producing a Class ISO 4 sterile environment (former American Federal Standard 209E) and protecting the product from external contamination and possible cross-contamination between samples.
