Staining & Downflow Benches

Dye Staining Bench

A ductless downdraft bench for the safe application of dyes, stains and reagents, protecting the operator from the fumes and vapours they release. Used across histology, pathology, microbiology and forensic laboratories, its polypropylene sink, dye storage tank, water facilities and open work surface give the ideal environment for efficient, repeatable staining.

Overview

A complete environment for staining and reagent work

Dye staining benches give operators protection from the fumes and vapours produced when dyes, stains and reagents are applied to samples. From histology and pathology sections to microbiology, cytology and haematology smears, and forensic print development, the polypropylene sink, dye storage tank, water facilities and open work surface provide the optimum environment for efficient, repeatable staining.
Harmful fumes and vapours are drawn downward through the work surface to the unit's filters, and clean air is recirculated back into the laboratory, so there is no need for expensive ducting. The polypropylene construction will not rust or corrode in contact with water and chemicals, and is easy to keep clean.

Key Features

Built for safe, efficient print processing

Downdraft extraction

Harmful fumes and vapours are drawn downward through the work surface to the unit's filters.

Sink & water facilities

A polypropylene sink, dye storage tank and water facilities give a complete dye staining environment.

Recirculating airflow

Clean air is recirculated back into the laboratory through the filters, with no ducting required.

Filters to suit the work

A range of carbon and HEPA filters so the bench can be matched to the dyes, stains and reagents in each application.

Polypropylene construction

Non corrosive polypropylene surfaces will not rust or corrode in contact with water and chemicals, and are easy to clean.

Low airflow alarm

Fitted as standard, the alarm alerts the operator if work surface face velocity falls below 0.3 m/s.
