Key Features:
The Containment Glovebox creates a fully enclosed workspace for handling highly toxic or reactive powders. Operators are completely isolated from the materials while internal airflow and optional controlled atmospheres maintain process integrity. Ideal for critical, high-hazard laboratory tasks.
Key Features:
Designed to protect your samples, processes and sensitive materials from airborne contamination, our Clean Air Cabinets create controlled ISO Class work zones for precision laboratory tasks. Ideal for sample preparation, PCR workflows, electronics handling and quality control applications, these systems provide consistent laminar airflow and reliable particulate control where product integrity is critical.
Laboratory Systems Group offers a wide range of models and configurations, including vertical and horizontal laminar flow units, recirculating cabinets, and specialized Dead Air and PCR solutions. Each cabinet is engineered to protect the process – providing clean, stable working conditions without the need for external ducting, and with flexible options to suit any laboratory setup.
Product Features
The SafeGuard VLF™ provides ISO Class 5 vertical laminar airflow for a clean workspace in non-hazardous applications. Ideal for cell culture, optics cleaning, trace metal analysis, and sterile compounding, it ensures processes remain free from airborne particulates. The Guard™ control system monitors HEPA filtration and blower speed, alerting the operator when maintenance is required, while its lightweight polypropylene construction allows easy cleaning and optional portability.
Key Features:
The SafeGuardHLF™ provides ISO Class 5 horizontal laminar airflow in a sleek, corrosion-resistant polypropylene design. Its spacious workspace is ideal for inspection, assembly, and handling of pharmaceutical, optical, or particulate-sensitive samples. Built in Australia, it includes HEPA filtration and monitoring features to ensure reliable, clean, and safe operation.
Key Features:
The SafeGuardPCR™ laminar flow cupboard provides a sterile ISO Class 5 environment for safe manipulation of DNA, RNA, and other sensitive samples. Its compact design allows laboratories to examine cultures without the risk of cross-contamination, while HEPA filtration ensures clean, controlled airflow. Built in Australia, it includes UV and LED lighting, shelving, and safety alarms for reliable operation.
Key Features:
The SafeGuard Pro™ RCLF fume cupboard protects both the operator and the process from hazardous airborne contaminants. Its seamless polypropylene construction offers excellent chemical resistance, while the Guard™ control system monitors airflow to maintain balanced laminar conditions. Exhausted air can be fully recirculated through HEPA and optional carbon filters or fully exhausted, making it ideal for pharmaceutical development, electronics inspection, and trace analysis.
Key Features:
The SafeGuard™ Dead Air Box provides a circulation-free enclosure, ideal for handling DNA, RNA, and other sensitive samples. It features a 0–15 minute UV light timer (254 nm) for sample irradiation between amplifications, with a safety interlock that disables the UV when the sash is raised. Constructed from seamless UV-reflective polycarbonate and polypropylene, it ensures no harmful energy escapes the workspace.
