Hosokawa Micron has introduced a downflow booth design standard for companies seeking downflow booth options that do not break the bank but still retain the high levels of containment and personnel protection they would expect from a more expensive booth.
“We haven’t cut corners in any way,” said Hosokawa Micron Product Manager, Carl Emsley. “We’ve just developed a smarter design that is already proving popular with those customers who want multiple booths and those using downflow containment facilities for the first time. This simply better downflow booth design is capable of achieving OELs <1 µg/m3, subject to use of a high containment screen and standard operating procedures.”
The new downflow booth is suitable for handling powders or liquids and, with a full, front opening retractable roller door, is suitable for storage as well as multiple dispensing activities.
Designed for ease of installation and flexibility of operation, the new downflow booth is plug and play, requiring no complicated installation or qualified personnel to undertake the wiring work. By utilising EC plug fan design and technology, air handling efficiencies have been achieved, alongside easily adjustable fan speed control that allows for efficient air handling within the working environment.
With this new design, noise levels of sub 60 dba are realised, which make it ideal for positioning within quiet zones or multi-processing areas where high noise levels might be unacceptable.
