Biosafety Cabinets (Class II) in Egypt
Available Biosafety Cabinets (Class II) Models

A Biosafety Cabinet (BSC) Class II is a meticulously engineered enclosed workspace designed to provide a sterile environment for handling biological agents. It creates a protective barrier between the user, the surrounding environment, and the materials being manipulated, ensuring both personnel safety and product protection. This is achieved through a sophisticated system of airflow, filtration, and containment. Clean air flows vertically from the top of the cabinet, passes over the work surface, and is then recirculated and filtered through HEPA (High-Efficiency Particulate Air) filters before being exhausted. This downflow and exhaust filtration system is crucial for preventing the escape of airborne particles, aerosols, and microorganisms.

In Egypt's rapidly advancing healthcare and research landscape, Class II Biosafety Cabinets (BSCs) are indispensable tools for protecting personnel, the environment, and product integrity. Their advanced filtration systems and containment capabilities make them crucial for a wide range of facilities and departments handling potentially hazardous biological materials.

Ensuring the proper installation of your Class II Biosafety Cabinet (BSC) is paramount to achieving optimal performance and maintaining a safe working environment in your Egyptian laboratory. We offer a comprehensive installation service designed to meet international standards and local regulatory requirements. Our certified technicians will guide you through each stage, from initial site assessment to final validation.

Site Preparation

Before delivery, a thorough site assessment will be conducted to confirm the suitability of the installation location. This includes:

• Space Availability: Ensuring adequate clearance for the BSC dimensions, plus sufficient space for operation, maintenance, and access.

• Power Supply: Verifying the presence of dedicated, grounded electrical outlets that meet the cabinet's power specifications. Surge protection is highly recommended.

• Ventilation Requirements: Confirming that the room's HVAC system can accommodate the heat load generated by the BSC and maintain appropriate air pressure differentials if required.

• Stability: Ensuring the floor is level and capable of supporting the weight of the BSC.

• Access: Planning for clear pathways for equipment delivery and access for technicians.

Delivery And Unpacking

Our logistics team will coordinate the safe and efficient delivery of your BSC to your facility in Egypt. Upon arrival, our technicians will carefully unpack the cabinet, inspect it for any transit damage, and verify that all components and accessories are present according to the order.

Installation Steps

The installation process is carried out by our trained and experienced engineers, adhering to strict safety protocols and manufacturer guidelines:

• Positioning: The BSC will be precisely positioned in the prepared location, ensuring it is level and stable.

• Electrical Connections: Connecting the cabinet to the verified power supply, ensuring all grounding is correctly implemented.

• Exhaust System Integration (if applicable): For ducted BSCs, our technicians will connect the exhaust ductwork to your building's ventilation system, ensuring leak-free and secure integration.

• Pre-filters and HEPA Filter Installation: Installing the pre-filters and ensuring the HEPA filters are properly seated and sealed to prevent any bypass.

• Initial System Checks: Performing basic functional checks of the fan, lights, and control panel.

Calibration And Validation Requirements

Post-installation, a critical phase of calibration and validation ensures your BSC operates within its specified parameters and provides the intended level of protection. This typically includes:

• Airflow Measurement: Measuring and confirming both the downflow and exhaust air velocities to ensure they meet the required standards (e.g., NSF/ANSI 49).

• HEPA Filter Integrity Testing (DOP/PAO Test): Performing a High-Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filter integrity test to detect any leaks in the filter or its seal.

• Air Curtain Verification: Ensuring the integrity of the air curtain, which is crucial for preventing inward and outward contamination.

• Visual Confirmation: Verifying the proper functioning of all internal components, including UV lights (if equipped) and the control system.

• Performance Documentation: Providing a comprehensive report detailing all test results and confirming that the BSC meets all applicable performance specifications.

Regular re-validation and calibration are essential to maintain the safety and efficacy of your Class II Biosafety Cabinet. We recommend scheduling these services annually or as per your institution's guidelines.

The cost of a Class II Biosafety Cabinet in Egypt can vary significantly based on several factors, including the manufacturer, specific features, certifications, and the supplier. For a reliable, certified Class II Biosafety Cabinet from a reputable brand, you can generally expect pricing to range from approximately 250,000 EGP to over 600,000 EGP. This broad range accounts for differences in airflow technology, construction materials, user interface, and integrated safety features. Basic models suitable for standard laboratory procedures will fall at the lower end of this spectrum, while advanced models with enhanced filtration, digital controls, and specialized applications will command higher prices. It is crucial to obtain detailed quotes from multiple authorized distributors to ensure you are comparing similar specifications and to factor in potential costs for installation, training, and ongoing maintenance.
