Perforated Top with Plenum Chamber

Chemical-Resistant Tops – Cleanroom Work Stations

• Lightweight polypropylene work surface provides optimal protection against acids and other caustic chemicals
• Cleanroom-compatible design meets Class 100 particle requirements
• Raised "ship's edges" available to contain dangerous spills
• Select solid top or perforated top with plenum chamber for venting fumes during wet processing operations
• Modular overhead fixture houses three-position fluorescent light

This modular work station combines all of the advantages of our standard units with the light-weight durability of polypropylene, which resists the corrosive effects of a wide range of acids and other caustic materials.

The polypropylene top is bonded to a steel frame for support along the entire work surface. The bench frame is made of all-welded square tubing; the heavy-wall tubing used in the construction allows the benchtop to support much heavier loads than conventional benches without sagging. The "A" base table support is adjustable from 25" to 34" floor-to-top and features a white finish. Optional 304 stainless steel lower leg members help guard against scratching. All base designs include leveling feet.

Select either the solid benchtop or a perforated top that features a sub-surface plenum chamber. This perforated top/plenum model is ideal for operations under a vertical laminar flow station; the perforations safely vent fumes that might arise during wet processing applications into the plenum chamber, from which they can be exhausted through a 5" x 40" discharge (custom discharge sizes are available to suit your in-house exhaust system).

Lock-In Frame Adjusts to Your Requirements

The versatile overhead fixture accommodates a dual-intensity fluorescent illuminator and utility shelves mounted above the work surface. The fluorescent light assembly includes two fixtures mounted inside the overhead fixture. Each one contains two 40-watt tubes, providing you with either 80 or 160 watts of fluorescent lighting. The three-position rocker switch on the left side of the fixture controls operation: in the UP position, both fixtures are ON; in the bottom position only one fixture is ON, and in the middle position both fixtures are OFF. This variable light control allows you to emphasize one portion of the work area or to provide complete, shadow-free lighting. A light diffuser panel ensures even illumination.

Versatile Shelf Storage

Many other models available: including static-dissipative and acid-resistant work surfaces, vibration-isolation systems, ErgoHeight™ and UltraClean™ work stations! Custom cut-outs are available to accommodate sinks, rinsers and other process equipment.
