Whenever transportation of the cabinet is needed, precautions should be taken to
prevent it from overturning due to the high-located mass centre.
Storage of the cabinet must be in an environment of maximum 80 % relative humidity and at
temperatures between 5 °C to 50 °C.
4.4 Sterile cabinets and open flames
The provision of natural gas to sterile cabinets is not recommended. Open flames in the sterile
cabinet create turbulences, disrupt airflow patterns and can damage the laminator and the HEPA
filter. When suitable alternatives (e.g. disposable sterile loops, micro-incinerators) are not possible,
touch-plate micro-burners that have a pilot light to provides a flame may be used.
4.5 Moving the Fortuna cabinets
It is not recommended to move the Fortuna cabinets after installation. The moving of a cabinet can
result in safety issues, which can only be detected by re-testing of critical functions and properties.
If moving is warranted both the Fortuna can be lifted and moved using a low lifter (on 1500 and 1800
models use one from each side). Be aware that the cabinets are top heavy. Stabilize cabinet during
the moving process. On all Fortuna cabinets, the stand can be removed and moved separately.
Whenever transportation of the cabinet is needed, precautions should be taken to
prevent it from overturning due to the high-located mass centre.
4.6 Connecting utilities to the Fortuna cabinets
If optional valves for utilities are delivered, make sure that local rules and regulations are complied
with during installation and use. It is generally recommended, to use an authorized technician for
this kind of work. Make sure that local rules and regulations regarding such installations are strictly
complied to.
Valves suited for any utility medium can be delivered. As default they are mounted in the holes in
the side windows. Optionally they can be mounted in the back wall.
