Westech - ClimateZone Containment Cabinets
ClimateZone Containment Cabinets provide a safe climatically controlled temperature and humidity environment for pharmaceutical drug sample testing and are ideal for practically any application. The Pharmaceutical Industry deals with both potent and sensitive drug compounds on a daily basis which means they have a high dependency on good facility design to ensure operator protection from exposure to drug compounds. Furthermore, maintaining a comfortable, stable and safe room environment is difficult to achieve within a laboratory because there is a high rate of air exchange. A significant volume of external air must be treated, circulated and then exhausted into the atmosphere every few minutes. The ClimateZone addresses these issues.
- Unique: No other system provides this level of climate and safety control.
- Fully Customizable: The ClimateZone can be tailored to fit your application.
- Audit Trail: Temperature and humidity loggers can be placed within the working environment to provide reported testing conditions.
- Mobile Environment: Ideal for use in ever changing laboratory layouts.
- Simple to Use: Minimal user training required.
- Cost Saving: Closed loop design means no external air handling control is required. No need for purpose build testing rooms.
- Increased Productivity: Drug testing can be carried out whenever required as opposed to waiting for stable room conditions.
- Minimal Facility Requirements: Uses standard power inputs and an optional house water source.
- Flexible: The large open workspace and variable control design allows for many custom applications.
- Ergonomic Design: Comfortable to use, simple to clean and good visibility.
