Overview
The chemical dunk tank is specifically designed for use in BSL3 and BSL4 biosafety laboratories.
The dunk tank serves as a specialized pass-through system for transferring goods between sections of a cleanroom or biology laboratory, using liquid disinfection to ensure effective sterilization.
The dunk tank features a manual locking mechanism, allowing the doors to provide a secure barrier seal even without the fluid in the tank.
It achieves a typical pressure loss of 80Pa at SAT over 30 minutes, starting from a pressure of 500Pa.
The chemical dunk tank can be equipped with a control panel offering PLC-controlled immersion times and integration with card swipe systems for enhanced access control.
For the safe transfer of items from hazardous environments, a recovery claw is included.
Custom designs are available—contact our technical department for more information and tailored solutions.
Effective Decontamination:
- Ensures thorough immersion for comprehensive coverage.
- Utilises chemical solutions to sterilize or neutralize contaminants on items.
