Overview

PBSC’s high containment APR door set also known as High Containment Doors, Hospital Doors, Lab Doors, Laboratory Doors, Stainless Steel Doors, APR Doors, and Cleanroom Doors, features a flexible seal that securely compresses against the doorframe, ensuring a reliable airtight barrier.

This high containment mechanical seal door set comes in your choice of stainless steel or machined HPL door leaves. Both options have been tested to withstand 2500PA (10″ W.G.). The door set can be connected to an access control system if required. To ensure a tight seal, we use a stainless steel arm to compress the combed edge of the frame against the seal. Our mechanical mechanism is mounted in the door frame, reducing the weight of the door and improving maintenance.

A highly specialized solution designed for controlled environments…

Datasheet

Innovation. Design. Quality.

Materials of construction:

  • 304 Stainless Steel
  • 316 Stainless Steel

 

Sub-Frame type:

  • Bolted Sub-Frame (Stud Partition, Block, or Modular Partition Wall) – 5mm zintec steel to be fixed into the wall to form the engineered structural opening. Available with a compression seal to the door frame.
  • Cast-In Door Frame (Concrete Wal) – The door frame is designed to be fully cast into the wall at the time of shuttering. The door frame is filled with concrete during the casting process and no site welding or grout fill is required. The door frame is designed with stops for the performance coating.
  • Cast Sub-Frame (Concrete Wall) – 5mm stainless steel grade 304 to be cast into the concrete walls to form the structural opening. Available with a compression seal or welded seal to the door frame. If welded, please advise if the frame will require grout filling on-site.

 

Vision Panels:

  • Radius double-glazed vision panel with 6mm thick toughened glass panes.
  • Small Squire double-glazed vision panel with 6mm thick toughened glass panes.

 

Both options are bonded to the top section of the door panel for a flush finish to both sides, with various sizes available depending on your project needs.

Available in:

  • Stainless Steel
  • Phenolic Resin

Both are constructed from 5mm and 3mm stainless steel sections with radiused corners.

This system is fitted with robust linkage for long-term durability.

Airtight Barrier:

A robust and flexible seal is manually compressed against the doorframe, forming an effective barrier against leakage. This design operates without the need for compressed air, ensuring fail-safe performance even during a power outage.

  • Radius double-glazed vision panel with 6mm thick toughened glass panes.
  • Small Squire double-glazed vision panel with 6mm thick toughened glass panes.

 

Both options are bonded to the top section of the door panel for a flush finish to both sides, with various sizes available depending on your project needs.

 

 

Following on-site installation, PBSC offers a Planned Preventative Maintenance and Servicing Plan with an extensive after-sales support service, including planned preventative maintenance programs, servicing, and spare parts.
