Suitable Applications
Suitable applications for the Purifier Filtered PCR Enclosures are
based on guidelines established by the Institute for Environmental
Sciences. Particulates are filtered by the HEPA filter before air is
returned to the room. Biohazardous materials or other hazardous
solids cannot be used with the Purifier Filtered PCR Enclosure, as
air is drawn over the work surface and out of the enclosure. The
Purifier Filtered PCR Enclosure
only provides product
protection and offers no personnel protection whatsoever.
