Routine servicing is essential to ensure the cabinet is performing correctly and providing the necessary protection for the user and environment. Testing is carried out in accordance to BS EN ISO 12469:2000 and includes HEPA filter integrity, airflow, velocity and visualisation, operation of alarms, inspect and change pre-filters.
