CLASS 1-HYBRID
BIOLOGICAL SAFETY CABINETS
Class 1 Hybrid Biological Safety Cabinets offer flexibility with two configurations; Class 1, and full-barrier containment with an added gloveport closure panel. Both configurations provide optimal protection for operators and the environment when handling potentially hazardous materials, while preventing the release of airborne particulate contaminants.
In the Class 1 configuration, a controlled airflow system draws air through the open front, across the work surface, and HEPA-filters exhaust air.
The full-barrier configuration draws air through the integrated side HEPA-filter, across the work surface, and HEPA-filters exhaust air whilst maintaining negative pressure, providing enhanced protection for occasional high-hazard tasks.
Class 1-Hybrid Biological Safety Cabinets from Contained Air Solutions meet BS EN 12469:2000 standards and can be tailored to your specific requirements.
CLASS 1 AIRFLOW
Inward air travels through the open front, over the worksurface, and is HEPA-filtered before being discharged either by releasing it back into the room (recirculating) or through a building extract system.
FULL BARRIER AIRFLOW
Inward air passes through a HEPA-filter before entering the work area, where it circulates clean air and is HEPA-filtered again before discharge. The discharged air can either be released back into the room (recirculating) or through a building extract system.

I would like to express my heartfelt thanks and gratitude for the help and assistance provided to the KEMH engineering team.
I wanted to make sure it was recognised that the lads worked their behinds off to make sure I got my cabinets in place before I left for the day. Deliveries like that make my life much easier!!

Our service has just concluded, please pass on our thanks to the visiting engineers – we were impressed with their efficiency and how smoothly this service round went.
The communications generally from CAS were excellent and Brian was great when on site.
The team were extremely hard working with no task being too much trouble, even offering to help other contractors that were working within the small space that we had available to us. They really couldn’t have been any more accommodating.
Just a quick email to say how grateful we are for how everything ran on Friday, we were very impressed by the speed with which everything was smoothed out and taken care of.
All good service as usual from CAS. Your engineer was very helpful, thorough and professional.
