Mars B2 100% exhaust safety cabinet
Mars B2 is a class II 100% exhaust biological safety cabinet, which provides operator, product and environmental protection with possibility of high window opening. The cabinet has as well a 200 mm front aperture and should always be ducted.
The safety cabinet is similar in many ways to the standard Mars cabinet. The only difference is that the Mars cabinet is 70% recirculation and 30% exhaust, whereas the Mars B2 is 100% exhaust.
This safety cabinet is suitable for microbiological work which requires sterility of product but may involve the use of small volumes of solvents, acids or chemicals that may normally require fume hood extraction. However the microbiological safety cabinet should not be used as a fume cupboard.

Orion 100% exhaust safety cabinet
Orion is a class II 100% exhaust safety cabinet, which provides operator, product and environmental protection. The cabinet has as well a 200 mm front aperture and should always be ducted.
The Orion safety cabinet is similar in design (but not the same) as the Mars Pro class 2 biological safety cabinet. It has a different safe filter change system. Thereby, the filters in the Orion are changed from the front, whereas the filters in the Mars Pro safety cabinet are changed from the inside. The exhaust for the Orion microbiological safety cabinet is on the side at the bottom, whereas on the Mars Pro cabinet it is on the top.
Orion is generally used like the Mars Pro when a safe filter change system is required.
The Orion safety cabinet is suitable for microbiological work which requires sterility of product but may involve the use of small volumes of solvents, acids or chemicals that may normally require fume hood extraction. However the safety cabinet should not be used as a fume cupboard.
Safe change pre-filter system make the cabinet ideally for animal cage changing and animal handling procedures.

Overview of possible options, accessories etc. for our safety cabinets
Below you will be able to view the different options, accessories etc. which are available for our safety cabinets.
|
Table tops
Our table tops for our safety cabinets are available in both stainless steel AISI 304 and AISI 316.
They are possible to be ordered for our class 1 Jupiter cabinet and our entire range of class 2 safety cabinets except Sirius. |
Side windows
Our side windows are available in four different versions: with 0 holes, 1 hole, 3 holes and finally a version made of stainless steel painted whited. The side windows can be used for all our safety cabinets except Sirius, Titan and Atlas, which are manufactured with side panels.
The side windows are made of 5 mm hardened glass and give a panoramic view for ultimate supervision and glare-free lighting, giving a comfortable stress-free working environment when working inside the safety cabinet.
|
Electrical outlets
We offer a various of different electrical outlets to be mounted inside the safety cabinets. Thereby, our safety cabinets can be used by customers situated around the entire globe.
We can mount up to two electrical outlets in each side of the safety cabinet, thereby you get a safety cabinet configured according to your exact electrical requirements.
If a 110V safety cabinet is required, we can mount a transformer inside the working chamber. |
Light source
Our safety cabinets can be manufactured with fluorescent dimmable light as well as LED dimmable light contributing to a lower energy consumption.
It is also possible to add a PIR sensor as well, which ensures that the safety cabinet automaticaly turns to full speed and light from ECO-mode upon any movement inside the work chamber. |
UV light
Our safety cabinets can be equipped with UV light for easy and fast decontamination. Either as a fixed version, where the UV light is mounted at the front top inside the working area or as a magnet version, where the UV light is mounted on the rear wall with a socket.
Both types can be controlled from the display. |
Support stands
A wide range of support stands in different heights from 750 mm to 950 mm as well as electrical elevation stands (operating range of 750 mm to 1050 mm) can be supplied for our safety cabinets.
The support stands can at the same time be equipped with castors. Be aware that according to the standard EN12469 a new test is required if the cabinet is moved more than one meter. |
Exhaust options
For control of the exhaust of your class 2 safety cabinet, we have different options, which you can choose between. Below is an overview of what we can offer in the exhaust category.
Exhaust connections for the external ventilation
If you want your safety cabinet to be connected to the external ventilation system in the laboratory, we have three different options to choose between.
- A ducting plate ø200 mm for direct connection to the external ventilation. The height of the cabinet is extended with 45 mm and the connection pipe is additional 55 mm.
- An antiblow back valve with side ducting ø200 mmm for direct connection to the external ventilation. The height of the cabinet is extended with 250 mm.
- An antiblow back valve with straight ducting ø200 mm for direct connection to the external ventilation. The height of the cabinet is extended with 250 mm and the connection pipe is additional 55 mm.
When buying an exhaust connection for your safety cabinet, a signal PCB for the external ventilation will be supplied at the same time in order to be able to use the exhaust connection. The signal PCB gives a potential free signal to the ventilation system regarding the safety cabinet's status (e.g. full speed, reduced speed or stop). There are four potential free signal switches at the PCB.
Exhaust filters
For extra safety, you can have a double HEPA exhaust filter mounted for the exhaust, thereby the air will pass through a double HEPA filter before being exhausted. Please note that the height of the safety cabinet will increase with 150 mm.
Measurement of the exhaust flow
For measurement of the exhaust flow, we are able to supply two different options.
- A 3rd sensor option with pressure switch for measuring the pressure in the plenum or the ventilation system. It will give an alarm in case of too low or too high pressure, depending on how the wire is connected to the main board.
- A minihelic which will be mounted in the back wall to measure the pressure in the pressure plenum.
Carbon exhaust filters
Activated carbon filters can be equipped on the safety cabinets to trap vapours. It is an absorbent filter that will retain certain pungent vapours and solvents passing through the filter inside the safety cabinet to control odors or chemical smells. It does not trap particulates, so it is often used together with a HEPA filter for retention of the particulates.
Please contact us with your requirements and we will advise the optimal carbon filter solution to your specific application.
|
Accessories
Our class 2 safety cabinet accessories are available for your for maximum flexibility and configuration according to your specific needs.
Our safety cabinet accessories include:
- Different valves (gas, vacuum, carbon dioxide, nitrogen, pressurised air, oxygen, water and deionized water), which can be mounted in the side windows or in the back wall with piping up or straight piping.
- Gas resetable solenoid valve to be connected to the gas valve for extra safety. The valve is controlled by the control unit on the safety cabinet.
- A network outlet RJ45, which can be mounted in the left or right side of the back wall.
