Work Surface Specifications

The work surface should be smooth, rigid, and durable, such as a chemical-
resistant epoxy resin. The surface should be non-porous and resistant to the
powders, solvents and chemicals used in conjunction with the enclosure. The
work surface should also contain a dished recessed area for containing primary
spills.

Work Surface and Enclosure Installation

1. Level the base cabinet or stand and the work surface. Work surface should

be placed flush with the front of the base stand or cabinet as shown in
Figure 3-1.

2. Position the work surface in its intended location and with the front of the

work surface towards you. (Rear mounting holes are located close to the
rear edge.)

3. Secure the work surface to the base stand or cabinet with a structural

adhesive or silicone sealant.

4. Insert the supplied mounting screws in the four holes. Allow a minimum

of 1/8" clearance under the head of the screw for positioning the enclosure.
(On 6942003 work surface with sink, the fasteners are omitted and the
enclosure is secured to the work surface with silicone sealant.

5. Place the enclosure on the work surface and slide the rear flange and front

air foil flanges under the mounting screw heads.

6. Tighten the four screws to complete the installation.


If the accessory histology/pathology work surface with sink is to be installed
(Labconco #6942003) then use general plumbing to connect the hot and cold water
supply lines and sink drain line. The valves are supplied with 1/2" OD slip joint
by 1/4" NPT female connector. The drain line requires 1-1/2" NPT female pipe
connector and an optional polypropylene P-trap (Labconco P/N 1432600)

See Chapter 7 for Dimensions on work surfaces.
