Motor / Blower assembly

The motor and blower are assembled on a slide plate. This allows the assembly to be easily removed from the

positive pressure plenum for faster servicing or replacement.

Cable ports (Optional)

A cable port is located in the cabinet’s left and right side walls. It provides a way of introducing power and data

cables, or siphoning tubes into the work area of the cabinet without having to go through the front viewscreen access
opening. A plug is provided for each port, when the port is not being used or the cabinet is being decontaminated.
