The Labconco Purifier® Axiom® Class II Type C1 Biosafety Cabinets maximize safety and flexibility as the first biosafety cabinet that can be used in a recirculating Type A mode for standard microbiological work or can be connected to an exhaust system to function in Type B mode for handling hazardous chemicals. The unique design includes the Chem-Zone™, providing chemical safety with a large, clearly defined area within the enclosure, bringing peace of mind when handling chemicals. Other features that make the Axiom safe and easy to operate include Inclination™ Technology and the intuitive MyLogic™ Operating System.

Axiom Type C1 BSCs provide personnel, product, and environmental protection by filtering hazardous particulates and aerosols and are suitable for work in all biosafety levels. These biosafety cabinets discharge HEPA filtered exhaust air directly back to the laboratory, or into an exhaust system through an included connection. Axiom models are available with base stands and/or an Accessory Package (UV light, service fixtures(s) and Vacu-Pass™ Cord and Cable Portal) included.
