ChemoSHIELD®

Uncompromised Safety and Performance

• The industry-leading design features of ChemoSHIELD allow it to provide sterile interior conditions while also increasing personnel protection from exposure.
• A spacious, negative-pressure pass-through chamber allows safe and easy transfer of materials into or out of the main chamber.
• Supplied gloves and glove sleeves are ASTM D6978 tested for use with chemotherapy drugs.
• A hinged viewscreen allows for easy loading of instruments and equipment.
• Ambidextrous gloves are positioned in the main chamber to allow total access to the interior.
• The pass-through door also includes one ambidextrous glove to permit manipulation of contents or surface decontamination of items moved to or from the main chamber.

HEPA-Filtered Interlock Permits Secure Pass-Through In and Out of the Work Area

• The pass-through door to the main work area swings opens for easy transfer of materials between the interchange and the main chamber.
• The clear-view outer interlock door is left-hand swinging. The door seals against peripheral gaskets to maintain internal negative pressure. This door opens only when the inner chamber door is closed.
• The pass-through door to the main work area swings open while under negative pressure. This door opens only when the outer door is closed.

Cabinet Containment, Personnel and Product Protection

The isolator pass-through and main chamber pressure are negative to the room. In the standard configuration, the pass-through is slightly more negative than the main chamber to prioritize cleanliness in the main chamber while ensuring containment of hazardous compounds throughout the isolator. The pass-through door and inner chamber door are mechanically interlocked to prevent both doors from being opened simultaneously.

• Individual supply and exhaust HEPA filters service the main chamber and interchange.
• Exhaust filters are safely and easily removed via bag-out provision to contain hazardous compounds prior to disposal.
• A stainless-steel air diffuser in the main chamber and pass-through offers additional protection to supply filters.
• Key lock on cabinet front prevents unauthorized opening of fully hinged front viewscreen that may compromise containment capability or aseptic environment.
• Mass airflow monitor audio/visual alarm system warns the user when the exhaust system has inadequate airflow.

Optimized Interior Workspace, Plus Simplified Cleaning

• All interior surfaces of the main chamber and pass-through are made of durable stainless steel for superior corrosion resistance.
• Back and side walls are polished to a non-glare, easy-to-clean finish.
• Interior surfaces can be accessed via glove ports for sanitization.
• The interior cabinet’s radius corners permit easy wipe down.
• The sectional work surface trays are fully removable. Trays stack easily to either side to simplify cleaning and filter changes.
• Exterior, scratch-resistant, powder coat finish provides the durability required in pharmacy environments.
