Internal exhaust damper, motor speed controller, and an optimally determined forward curve fan, all combined decreases energy consumption, facilities’ operating costs, noise, and vibration. The DC-ECM motor operates at a constant airflow, increasing the life of your HEPA filter, which handles up to a 250% pressure drop when in operation. The CellGard ES series includes NuAire’s exclusive HEPEX Zero-Leak airflow system, which improves lab safety by surrounding the cabinet’s plenum with negative air pressure.

The vertical sliding window is encased in a frame that opens an additional 30° to aid in cleaning behind the sash. The window is compatible with NuAire’s exclusive DECON 101 System to ensure a gas tight seal during decontamination procedures.
