How it works & air flow
Like all FASTER safety workbenches, the SafeFAST Light is also based on the classic Class II airflow principle:
- 70 per cent of the air is recirculated through a main H14 HEPA filter
- 30 per cent of the air is discharged into the environment in a controlled manner via a separate H14 HEPA exhaust filter
This airflow configuration ensures a stable, laminar airflow that protects both the user and the product from cross-contamination.
