Thermo Fisher Scientific introduces the Thermo Scientific™ 1500 Series Class II, Type A2 Biological Safety Cabinet (BSC), a solution designed to provide protection, exceptional user comfort through ergonomic design, and operational convenience.

Tailored to meet the needs of everyday laboratories, as well as those in academic, pharmaceutical and biotechnological segments, the 1500 Series A2 BSC enhances workflow efficiency while upholding the NSF/ANSI49 safety standards, certifying their safety, design and performance. It incorporates advanced features like Thermo Scientific™ SmartFlow™ Plus airflow technology that delivers real-time continuous compensation of inflow and downflow and Thermo Scientific™ Digital Airflow Verification (DAVe™ Plus) that monitors and alerts the user to out-of-tolerance airflows that could compromise protection for the operator and the sample. It also features a 7-inch touchscreen monitor with graphical user interface for easy operation and an advanced design, including the Thermo Scientific™ SmartClean front window design which provides better access for cleaning the cabinet.  
 
The 1500 Series A2 BSC builds upon the capabilities of its predecessor the popular 1300 Series, incorporating more precise airflow control, and an improved customer experience based on key customer feedback in a refreshed design. 
 
“Biological safety cabinets are vital for laboratory safety and compliance,” said Douglas Wernerspach, senior business director of CO2/BSC in laboratory equipment division at Thermo Fisher Scientific. “The 1500 Series A2 BSC delivers advanced safety features with an intuitive design, empowering users to achieve consistent, efficient, and reliable performance in critical lab environments.” 

Key Applications

• Cell culture and molecular biology workflows in pharma and biotech
• Biobanking and sample preparation
• Bioprocessing and vaccine development
• Academic and government research

Features/Benefits

• Advanced Protection: The dual blower system, featuring separate downflow and exhaust fans, continuously monitors and controls the airflow balance of both inflow and downflow in real-time. With the integration of Thermo Scientific™ SmartFlow™ Plus and DaVE™ Plus technologies, this system ensures optimal performance, which is essential for maintaining cleanliness and containment. The negative pressure between inner and outer side walls provides additional protection, and the inventive SmartPort allows tubing and cables to be conveniently contained.  
• Enhanced User Comfort: Ergonomically designed SmartClean front window simplifies cleaning, and tactile window mechanisms improve usability. Integrated LED lighting provides bright, uniform illumination while reducing energy consumption.
• Flexible Operation: A 7-inch high-resolution touchscreen with graphical user interface offers intuitive operations, programable UV light, and real-time performance and safety monitoring for streamlined workflows.
• Sustainability: Energy-efficient LED lighting supports green initiatives, reducing costs and environmental impact.
