Powdermax™ Powder Weighing Balance Enclosure
Laboratory operations involving weighing, mixing and dispensing hazardous or nuisance powders can now be performed safely and economically with the Esco Powdermax 1 Powder Weighing Balance Enclosure. The enclosure’s unique design maintains balance stability to 4 decimal places without compromising containment.
Designed specifically for powder containment applications, the Powdermax Enclosure employs carefully directed inward airflow at the face of the enclosure to protect the operator from exposure to hazardous powders or potent pharmaceutical compounds. The aerodynamically designed enclosure reduces airflow turbulence for maximum containment while minimizing the effect that air drafts may have on sensitive weighing balances. The enclosure design exceeds the containment requirements of ANSI/ASHRAE 110 as proven by independent type testing. All exhaust air is HEPA-filtered, removing virtually all particulate matter, before recirculation to the laboratory.

- Mobile cart with foldable trays
- Height-adjustable lab chair
- Ergonomic foot rest
- Room air is drawn in across the front of the cabinet with an average velocity of 0.5 m/s (100 fpm).
- Air is drawn up through the cabinet's work zone and forced through the HEPA filter (>99.99% typical efficiency for 0.3 micron sized particles)
- The state-of-the-art baffle system ensures airflow uniformity throughout the cabinet's main chamber.
- The HEPA filtered air then returns to the laboratory stripped of all airborne contaminants or is vented through the optional exhaust collar to exhaust ducting for enhanced safety.
