claire® total - safety cabinet class II
SAFETY CABINET CLAIRE® TOTAL - SAFETY FOR CRITICAL WORK
claire® total models are particularly suitable for work in combination with volatile toxic compounds or also with radioactive labelled substances and viruses particles. They represent a special device type for the handling of biological and chemical hazardous substances under aseptic, low particle conditions. The concept uses an air conveyance system without recirculation into the work space. In the working space a uniform laminar flow is generated. A series of high-efficiency cartridge filters as the main filter stage retain particulate matter from the total airflow which is removed by a fixed exhaust air system.
SAFETY CABINET CLAIRE® TOTAL - PRO CHEMISTRY
Protection Shield
The multiple award-winning “Shield Design” underlines the high design quality and the union of innovation in form and function Manufaktur
Custom-made
With our own research, development and construction we offer customized solutions for individual needs.
Touch Display
Intuitive operation and user-friendly menu navigation.
Special air conveyance
Safety cabinets of class II, Type B2, according to NSF 49 with 100 % exhaust air. Ensures safe working conditions even with volatile toxic chemicals in standard laboratory volumes.
Fulfillment of the special requirements for the exhaust air connection
Similar to a chemical fume hood, it is necessary to provide a fixed direct and specially assigned exhaust air duct. For claire® total, a built-in, high-performance fan supports the removal of air into the external exhaust air system.
Innovative LED-light technology
Apart from the interior LED lighting, laterally arranged LED light bands and the illuminated window edge in direct view of the user visualize the operating state or alarms and guarantee the highest security
Ergonomics
Particularly bright operating conditions and optimum legroom due to the special compact design of the main filter level Einzigartige Filtertechnologie.
Unique Filtertechnology
Special HEPA cartridge filter for even lower sound levels and energy consumption.
SAFETY CABINET TYPE B2 - FOR COMPLEX APPLICATIONS
For claire® total, an air conveyance concept without circulation or recirculating air in the work space is used, compared to conventional safety cabinets of class 2 (Type A1 or A2). Around 70% of the total volume flow in the safety cabinet is sucked in from the laboratory via roof-side fans and cleaned via pre-filters and a large H14 HEPA filter. In this way the laminar displacement flow (downflow to 0.45 m/s) for aseptic working conditions is generated inside the work space, typically with cleanroom class A according to the EU GMP guidelines or ISO class 5 according to ISO EN DIN 14644-1. About 30% of the total volume flow is sucked in at the work opening, the inflow is 0.51 m/s. This serves to create the retention capacity for personal protection through a stable air curtain. Hazardous substances released during activities cannot enter the laboratory air. A strong main fan supplies 100% of the total volume flow to the laboratory exhaust system.
SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS FOR THE EXHAUST AIR CONNECTION
For safety cabinets of class II Type B2, a fixed permanent connection to the laboratory exhaust system has to be provided, so that the exhaust air is safely guided out of the building. With claire® total, a built-in, highperformance fan supports the discharge of air into the exhaust air conveyance system. In the planning process the following should be considered:
- Direct, permanent and specifically to the safety cabinet assigned connection to the exhaust air system
- Exhaust air system with own terminal fan, adapted to the exhaust air volume
- Mutual monitoring of the function of the safety cabinet and the exhaust air system with alarm and emergency shutdown, for this there are potential- free contacts in the claire® total available
- Shutters in the exhaust air system for shutdown and decontamination by fumigation

CLAIRE®TOTAL MODELS
ADVANTAGES OF A SAFETY CABINET CLASS 2 - TYPE B ACCORDING TO NSF 49
- Prevention of the formation of explosive atmospheres when volatile substances, e.g. organic solvents, are used.
- The downflow HEPA filter does not come into contact with infectious, toxic or radioactive hazardous[1] substances. The main filter stage under the work surface exclusively binds all particulate[1] contaminants.
- Gaseous substances are quickly and directly discharged into the laboratory exhaust system, comparable[1]to a fume cupboard for chemicals.
- At the same time (and unlike a fume cupboard!), the system provides an aseptic and particle[1]free working environment.
CONSTRUCTION AND INSTALLATION OF CLAIRE®TOTAL
→ Premium quality
The interior features a premium and solid finish, made entirely of stainless steel and safety glass, durable, resistant, with few joints and easy to clean. All components, options or modifications of the safety bench are implemented by our qualified employees in the design and production with the highest quality standards.
→ Low and flexible total height
claire® total offers a height adjustment in seven steps as standard during installation, the possible working surface thus varies between 683 and 952 mm. The total height is between 2,039 - 2308 mm. This means that installation is also possible in low rooms, and the exhaust air connection and filters are easily accessible for inspection and replacement. Our field staff will be happy to help you assess the installation options on request.
→ Transport and installation
Transport and installation are carried out by our trained logistics partners or our own service staff. Here, too, an on-site inspection of the access routes can be useful. If it doesn't seem to fit here, there are also alternative options for claire® total. For example, the insertion can be carried out separately from the underframe
→ Options
claire® total can be equipped in a similar way to claire® pro. This allows you to design and adapt your safety cabinet entirely according to your personal ideas and individual requirements. Information on the individual options is available on request. Please feel free to contact our sales staff for a consultation at your premises.
Safety cabinets from Berner International meet the highest quality requirements and are subjected to an extensive test program before delivery to the customer. We also offer intensive commissioning testing, maintenance and other services by our certified staff.
