What Are Laminar Flow Cabinets?
Laminar flow cabinets and laminar flow hoods are perfect for creating an ultra-clean environment within a laboratory, manufacturing area or cleanroom.
Our laminar flow hoods can achieve ISO class 5 conditions and suits a wide number of applications. We can also design bespoke laminar flow units, tailored to match your process.
What is a laminar flow unit?
Laminar flow is where a fluid flows in one direction, with no interruptions from turbulence. In a laminar flow unit, clean air has a unidirectional down flow from the face of the fan filter unit. The accurate terms to describe these units are unidirectional airflow cabinet and down flow booth – however laminar flow cabinet or laminar flow hood are the cleanroom industry’s preferred terms.
A unidirectional down-flow of clean air ensures that only extremely clean air passes down over the process, protecting sensitive products and processes from airborne particulate. This means that the environment will be free from any particles shed from operatives, and any particles generated from the process.
Bespoke laminar flow cabinets
- HEPA fan filter unit & pressure gauge to allow real time filter monitoring
- Can contain either HEPA or ULPA filters depending on the required classification
- Stainless steel bench (solid or perforated) to mount the cabinet
- Optional LED cleanroom lighting, to illuminate processes
- Optional integrated flatscreens to show production staff assembly instructions
- Any additional requirements
Horizontal Laminar Flow Cabinet
The Horizontal Laminar Flow Cabinet offers an ISO Class 5 Classified Environment and is ideal when budgets are tight and space is limited.
Horizontal laminar flow cabinets or laminar flow hoods create a clean environment for critical processes. Sweep laminar / unidirectional air across the work surface and out towards operators. Giving you the confidence and reassurance that you are carrying out your processes within a clean and controlled environment.
- Horizontal airflow
- Multiple sizes available – 1600mm, 1200mm & 800mm
- Acieves ISO Class 5
Vertical Laminar Flow Cabinet
The Vertical Laminar Flow Cabinet offers an ISO Class 5 Classified Environment and is ideal when budgets are tight and space is limited.
Vertical laminar flow cabinets or laminar flow hoods create a clean environment for critical processes. Laminar / unidirectional air flows down from the filter face onto the working area below. Giving you the confidence and reassurance that you are carrying out your processes within a clean and controlled environment.
- Vertical airflow
- Multiple sizes available – 1600mm, 1200mm & 800mm
- Acieves ISO Class 5
