Safety cabinet
View Patent ↗Provided is a safety cabinet that prevents oversights in airtightness tests and HEPA filter penetration ratio tests even if a pathogen or the like leaks from a workspace wall surface in the interior of the safety cabinet. The safety cabinet includes: a work surface at the bottom of a workspace; a front panel at the front of the workspace; a work opening section below the front panel; and a first air purification means that filters exhaust air that is air discharged from within the workspace. The safety cabinet is characterized in that the non-workspace sides of a side wall surface and a back wall surface of the workspace are formed by an outer wall of a device with prescribed airtightness performance.
1. A safety cabinet comprising:
a work surface on a bottom of a workspace;
a front panel at a front of the workspace;
a work opening section below the front panel;
a first air filter configured to filter exhaust air for exhausting air in the workspace,
an outer wall forming non-workspace sides of a side wall surface and a back wall surface of the workspace;
an opening section below the work surface at the bottom of the workspace;
a penetration ratio test cover which covers the opening section and seals a space in which the first air filter is disposed; and
a test blowing unit connected to the penetration ratio test cover.
