Baker BioPROtect ® III Class II Style Walk-In Clean Air and Containment Enclosures
Quote
The Baker BioPROTECT III Class II Style Walk-In Clean Air and Containment Enclosure is a large-format bio-containment system designed to house laboratory robotics, automated equipment, and oversized instrumentation that cannot fit within traditional benchtop biological safety cabinets. This walk-in containment enclosure provides simultaneous personnel, product, and environmental protection through a high-performance airflow system featuring intake air velocity at the front access opening, HEPA-filtered supply air throughout the work area, and exhaust HEPA filtration that removes airborne particulates and aerosols. Ideal for high-throughput screening, combinatorial chemistry, drug discovery, immunology, tissue culture, clinical research, molecular biology, and quality control assays, the BioPROTECT III accommodates large robotic systems, ultra-centrifuges, flow cytometers, and aerosol generators in a fully aseptic, contained environment.
Engineered with modular construction for simplified shipping, delivery, and installation, the BioPROTECT III features dual access doors that allow flexible loading and handling of large carts, robotic platforms, and analytical instrumentation in laboratory automation workflows. The straight back wall design easily accommodates most laboratory apparatus and instrumentation without requiring custom modifications or adapter plates. Baker’s StediFLOW VFD variable frequency drive motor controller delivers energy-efficient operation with reduced heat output and quieter performance compared to traditional blower systems, supporting extended operation in temperature-sensitive applications and noise-restricted laboratory environments. The stainless steel interior provides chemical resistance and simplified decontamination for applications involving cytotoxic compounds, infectious agents, or hazardous materials requiring containment during automated processing.
Available in multiple model configurations ranging from 48 inches to 147 inches in width with heights from 93 inches to 106 inches, the BioPROTECT III accommodates diverse robotic automation systems and large-scale analytical platforms. The 8-inch fixed sash opening maintains controlled intake velocities while the front air capture grille ensures consistent airflow patterns across the work zone. Energy-efficient fluorescent lighting with solid-state ballasts reduces flicker, minimizes heat output, improves operator eye comfort, and extends lamp life up to fifty percent compared to conventional ballast systems. Independent ground-fault interrupt outlets with self-resetting circuit breakers and remote circuit breakers for sidewall receptacles provide electrical safety and overload protection for high-power robotic systems and analytical instrumentation. Although the BioPROTECT III has passed all microbiological testing protocols, it is not currently listed under NSF/ANSI Standard 49 for Class II type designation. ARES Scientific is an authorized distributor for Baker, ensuring you receive genuine products with full manufacturer warranty, factory installation supervision options, and access to replacement HEPA filters and technical support for your laboratory containment equipment.
