The Benchmark SureAir™ PCR workstation is a compact, convenient way to reduce contamination concerns and provide a clean room environment at a fraction of the space and cost. The high-powered yet quiet internal fan produces laminar flow conditions without any installation into ductwork. The included HEPA filter purifies air within the chamber, meeting ISO 5 cleanliness standards, and filters 99.97% of particles 0.3 µm and larger. The double-hinged front panel provides ample workspace for convenient hand access, and can be opened fully to allow placement of equipment inside. The SureAir is designed to keep your workspace clean, easy-to-use, and organized. An included germicidal UVC light eliminates any stray DNA that may cotaminate samples, and is programmed to automatically shut off after 15 minutes. To protect users, the UVC light is only operational when the cover is closed, and will shut off upon opening the cover. Ample lighting is provided by an energy efficient LED light source. Up to 3 standard size pipettes are accommodated by the pipette holder integrated within the storage shelf. Pipette tips and small instruments can also be stored away from the main workspace when not in use. Power cables can easily be routed through the access port on the right side of the chamber.
