INSTALLATION
Cabinet Location
The cabinet should be placed in an area of the laboratory free from strong air
currents, heavy traffic and particulate microbial or chemical contamination. This will
reduce any disruption of the airflow patterns at the face opening and will prolong the
life of the HEPA filters.
The ceiling height above the cabinet should allow four (4) inches of clearance above
the exhaust area to allow free air passage.
Installation and Leveling
Caution:
Do not remove the front panel. Removal will void the Factory Leak Tight
Air Seal Test.
Bench Top Installation
Set the cabinet on the bench top with five (5) inches overhanging in the front.
Thread the drain valve in place and tighten. Put the work deck support and pan
in place. Level the work deck by placing metal shims under the bottom of the
cabinet. Silicone caulking can also be applied to seal the area between the
bench top and the cabinet.
