SafeFAST XXL
SafeFAST XXL - The large-capacity safety cabinet for automated laboratory processes
Maximum protection with maximum space requirements - ideal for robots, 3D printers and special applications
The SafeFAST XXL is a specially developed Class II biological safety cabinet, designed to accommodate large-format devices such as laboratory robots, 3D printers or complex analysis systems. It combines the highest safety standards with a robust, application-specific design and offers ISO Class 3 air purity in accordance with ISO EN 14644-1 - for absolute cleanliness in the work area while protecting people, products and the environment.
Thanks to customised configuration options, every SafeFAST XXL can be tailored precisely to your process-specific requirements - with certified safety in accordance with EN 12469:2000.
Your product benefits at a glance
- Large-format work surface - perfect for laboratory robotics and specialised equipment
- H14 HEPA filtration - ISO class 3 air purity
- Configurable according to individual project requirements
- Robust stainless steel construction - also available in full stainless steel (AISI 316)
- DEHS test connections for GMP-compliant filter qualification
- Suitable for GMP & ISO certified production areas
Maximum security – even for complex systems
The SafeFAST XXL utilises a multi-stage airflow design:
- 70 % of the process air is recirculated via a vertical airflow (H14 HEPA filter in accordance with EN 1822)
- 30 % of the air is exhausted via a separate H14 exhaust HEPA filter to protect the ambient air
- An inflow barrier with an air velocity of 0.5 m/s ensures secure containment from the outside
- Negative pressure operation ensures that no contamination can escape from the interior
These features provide triple protection: for the operator, the product and the laboratory environment – even during automated applications or continuous operation.
