Thermo Scientific Herasafe KS, Class II Biological Safety Cabinet
Herasafe KS Class II biological safety cabinets deliver maximum safety, comfort and convenience. Featuring an advanced design for easy operation and maximum safety, Herasafe KS cabinets may be used wherever protection is of paramount importance.
Safety and Protection
- HEPA filters guarantee maximum filtration efficiency of 99.995% at the most penetrating particle size (MPPS)
- Pressure sensor monitoring ensures safe airflow across the entire work surface
- SmartFlow* digital technology maintains constant airflow during normal filter loading or temporary airflow obstruction due to foreign objects
- Digital Airflow Verification immediately alerts to any airflow obstruction
Performance and Operation
- Interior eye-level display on rear wall for “”at-a-glance”” monitoring of safety parameters
- Performance factor (PER) indicates: cabinet is safe, cabinet is safe but time for service, cabinet should not be used
- Display parameters include downflow air velocity, cabinet malfunction, time of day, operating time of optional UV-C lights, total operating hours
- Timer for delayed start
- Stopwatch function
- Handheld control for use inside cabinet eliminates glove changes before changing cabinet settings
Construction
- Motorized front window with adjustable 25cm working aperture slopes 10°
- DC motor technology uses energy efficiently with lower heat output
- Aerosol-tight window sealing for additional protection when cabinet is in stand-by mode
- Frameless front sash and side glass window yields unobstructed view of the total work area
- Scratch-resistant stainless-steel work surface with indentations that trap spilled liquids

IKA introduces the first overhead stirrers with removable wireless controller (WiCo), designed to optimize complex stirring applications. The wireless controller (WiCo) allows to work in a fume hood or safety cabinet without lifting the protective screen, which in turn helps protect the user from toxic material exposure in addition to preserving sample integrity.IKA overhead stirrers effortlessly process stirring volumes up to 200 liters. They stand out because of their indispensable features, which include: electronic safety circuit, digital/TFT display, integrated bushing for a temperature sensor, two speed ranges, ability to control the rheological changes and monitor all parameters using labworldsoft® software, a digital error display, etc.>> Click here for more information |

Application of the month
Homogeneous mixing of mud paraffin with EUROSTAR 100 control
Task:Â 1 kg of mud paraffin to be mixed homogeneously with a suitable overhead stirrer
Method of Preparation: The sample is filled into a 2 liter beaker and melted in a water bath at 130 °C. During the melting process, the sample is stirred with the overhead stirrer EUROSTAR 100 control and a dissolver stirrer R 1300 at low speeds. The medium temperature is measured directly using a PT-1000 temperature sensor which is connected to the agitator. After the mud paraffin has completely melted, the speed is increased to 1200 rpm and the sample is stirred for 2 mins. Then, the stirrer is removed and the sample is cooled to |
