The BVBI is Germfree’s advanced line of Vertical Laminar Flow Hoods. These USP 797 compliant units provide a high degree of localized control for critical processes and the handling of products in a sterile environment. The work deck is continuously bathed with air that has passed through a High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filter. This protects preparations from contamination, removing organisms and particulates 0.3 micron in size with an efficiency of 99.99%.
The HEPA filter is positioned above the work area of the Laminar Flow Hood providing vertical unidirectional airflow within the cabinet. This ensures a smooth and uninterrupted flow of optimal ‘First Air’ to the Direct Compounding Area (DCA). Germfree’s BVBI is engineered to meet or exceed all advanced specifications for ISO 5/Class 100 Laminar Flow Cabinets. These include: USP 797, ISO 14644-1, US Federal Standard 209E and IES Recommended Practices.
