4.A
SCOPE
The vertical laminar airflow cabinet CytoFAST Top is manufactured in compliance with international
standards for the protection of the material, the operator and the environment against biological (Class II) and
cytotoxic hazards and is suitable for the manipulation of low- and middle-risk pathogenic agents
4.B CONTROL AND REGULATION SYSTEMS
The CytoFAST Top cabinet is provided with an automatic regulation system to keep the airflow speed (0.4
m/sec) in the work chamber and the recycling air/extracted air ratio constant. This system counters the
effects of the gradual clogging of the three HEPA filters up to pressures of nearly 35 mm H
2
O.
The soft-touch control panel is microprocessor-controlled with a display showing all relevant data with regard
to the operating functions, the different alarms and the error messages.
The solid work surface creates optimal airflow laminarity at working level in the preparation of cytotoxic drugs,
while the front longitudinal slots create a protective air-barrier.
The front panel of hardened glass is hinged to facilitate the introduction of bulky objects, and is provided with
gas-springs for opening/closing and holding the "open" position.
The front panel seals the front opening and assures the saturation of the cabinet with sterilizing agents as
well as the non-contamination when not used.
