New XPert Nano Enclosures Are The First And Only Enclosures To Be Validated For Nanomaterial Containment

XPert® Nano™ Enclosures protect users during nanoparticle manipulation and dry powder chemical handling. The patented containment enhancing design features maintain user protection by drawing room air into the front of the enclosure, sweeping the cabinet interior, pulling the air to the back through the patented baffle, and filtering the air through a 99.999% bag-in/bag-out ULPA filter before returning the clean air to the laboratory. The stainless steel interior (sides, work surface, removable baffle and removable airfoil) is designed for easy wipe down and cleaning procedures. An optional built-in ionizer neutralizes static charge on interior surfaces by emitting ions into the airstream, which helps reduce weighing errors and attraction of particles to the enclosure surfaces.

The XPert Nano Enclosures have been independently tested by NANOSAFE, INC.™ and is the first commercially available enclosure to receive their validation mark.
