Thick spcecial acoustic foam around the interior of the cabinet
All requirements related to safety are considered in the design [ventilated enclosure by double ball bearing fans, use of non flammable materials (class 1 rated), and use of heat resistant materials]
Noise reduction cabinet integrates an audible & visual (red led) overheating temperature alarm (with battery backup) for an increased vacuum pump lifetime.
OVERHEATING ALARM TEMPERATURE
In case of air intake or air exhaust obstruction, the air inside the noise enclosure could exceed the limits set by vacuum pump manufacturers for best performance. With this sensor, if the temperature goes above an acceptable limit, the alarm will sound (a red led will come on and an audible continuous alarm will start ~ 90dB)
Alarm test function : test switch button available to make sure batteries are charged and alarm is functional. When pushing the switch, the red led will come on and a continuous audible sound will start if the system is operating correctly.
Requires 2 x 1.5 AA bateries - independant from noise enclosure main power supply
VIBRATION DAMPENING
One issue that is not addressed by conventional lab benching for mass spectrometers is the vibration transmitted by the vacuum pump to the mass spectrometer. Escessive vibration affects the performance and lifetime of turbomecular pumps inside the mass spectrometer, and thus reduces performance which can lead to costly repairs. The ionBench solution is to apply patented coil spring-based vibration dampeners which reduce vibrations by 99%.
The design of the system prevents vibrations being transmitted from the primary vacuum pumps to the Mass Spectrometer (especially to the turbomolecular pump inside the MS)
Calibrated springs are matched to your vacuum pump configuration (rotation speed, frequency and weight)
Optionnal oil drip steel tray can be provided for each vacuum pump.
FULLY MOVABLE BENCH
Fully movable bench with a weight capacity above 500kg / 1110lbs and standard laminate chemically resistant worksurface / TRESPA TOPLAB optional for laboratory applications.
Different bench sizes available depending on configuration of the LC/GC/ICP/MS. Black steel powder coated frame.
Provided with 4 or 7 (depends on the bench size) solidly built lockable casters. Simplifies moving the system to ensure easy access to the back of the instruments wich also saves space in your lab.
