2: Before You Install
Before you install the product, the site should be prepared for installation. Examine the
location where you intend to install it. You must be certain that the area is level and of
solid construction. In addition, a dedicated source of electrical power must be located
within 10 feet (3 m) of the installation site.
Location Requirements
A biosafety cabinet should be located away from areas of high foot traffic, doors, fans,
ventilation registers or vents, chemical fume hoods or other air-handling devices. Any
of these may interfere with the airflow patterns in and around the product, and
subsequently diminish product and/or personnel protection. All windows in the room
should remain closed. Figure 2-1 shows the preferred and alternate locations for this
product.
