The AireGard NU-126 Vertical LaminarAirflow Workstations are designed toprovide the ideal particle-free, bacteriafreeclean-air environment needed forlaboratory work, testing, manufacturing,inspection, or pharmaceutical procedures.The exclusive design innovations builtinto the NU-126 will provide exceptionalperformance in the most demandingenvironments.Vertical/Horizontal LaminarAirflowThe AireGard NU-126 has a uniqueconfiguration that offers the benefits ofvertical airflow as the air moves aroundthe objects on the work surface butallows the horizontal airflow to movethrough the work access opening actingas a barrier against contamination. Theslanted viewing window not only providesan excellent view of the work in processbut also substantially protects the operatorfrom direct contact with contaminantsgenerated within the work area.HEPA FiltersAll NuAire clean workstations use HighEfficiency Particulate Air [HEPA] filtrationfor the supply air systems. The HEPAfilters are rated 99.99% efficient for allparticulate matter of 0.3 microns, withgreater collection efficiency for largerand/or smaller particles.The life of the HEPA filter is extended by:1] disposable fiberglass prefilters; 2] anadjustable motor-speed controller, whichmaintains proper airflow requirements;and 3] a high-capacity motorized impeller,which automatically maintains uniformfilter pressure assuring uniform velocities.Performance and QualityThe NU-126 is a superior clean workstationbecause it is designed with these specialbuilt-in features that consistently exceedour customer’s requirements:• The highly reliable ATTENUMOUNT®vibrations control system, providesextraordinary attenuation of soundand vibration.• Clear Lucite acrylic sidewalls and ascratch-resistant clear polycarbonateviewing panel surrounds the work areato prevent that “trapped” feelingwhile allowing more natural sunlightinto the work area.• Controls, adjustments, prefilters, andHEPA filters are conveniently accessiblefrom the front of the cabinet.Performance SpecificationISO Std. 14644Performance LevelsLight:175 foot-candles [1614 LUX]on the work surfaceVibration:Less than 200 micro-inches onthe work surfaceSound:Less than 62 dBa againstambient 55 dBaElectrical Requirements115 VAC, 60 HZ, Single Phase230 VAC, 50 Hz, Single PhaseStandard FeaturesVertical Airflow-Product ProtectionFluorescent LightingClear Acrylic SidewallsClear PolycarbonateViewing WindowHinged View Screenwith AutoLiftTwo Service PortsHEPA Filtered AirflowFiberglass Prefilters90 FPM [.46m/s] Down FlowAir VelocityWhite Formica Work SurfaceOptional FeaturesService Valves ForGas/Air/VacuumStainless Steel Work SurfaceIV Bar with six hooksUltraviolet [Germicidal] Lamp30” [762 mm] BaseSupport Stand36” [914 mm] BaseSupport StandFront Closure PanelRoom AirHEPA Filtered Clean Air3

AIREGARD 201/301 HORIZONTAL AIRFLOW WORKSTATIONSThe NuAire NU-201 and NU-301 HorizontalLaminar Airflow Workstations arespecially designed to provide the idealparticle-free, bacteria-free, clean-airenvironment needed for laboratorywork, testing, manufacturing, inspection,or pharmaceutical procedures.True Laminar AirflowThe NU-201 and NU-301 create truelaminar airflow and uniform horizontalvelocities throughout the entire work zone.Both models achieve minimal airturbulence by making the work areaenclosure zone an extension of the HEPAfilters’ actual flow area. The clean filtered,uniform velocity air is then allowedto flow outward in streamlines,eliminating “backwash”.HEPA FiltersAll NuAire clean workstations use HighEfficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filtrationfor their supply air systems. The HEPAfilters are rated 99.99% efficient for allparticulate matter of 0.3 microns, withgreater collection efficiency for largerand/or smaller particles.The life of the HEPA filter is extended by:1) disposable fiberglass prefilters, whichcollects atmospheric dust; 2) anadjustable motor-speed controller, whichNU-301NU-201STANDARD SIZESNU-301CabinetWidth, ft.FilterHeight, in.Weight, lbs.NU-301-324 3 24 290NU-301-330 3 30 300NU-301-336 3 36 310NU-301-424 4 24 330NU-301-430 4 30 340NU-301-436 4 36 350NU-301-524 5 24 375NU-301-530 5 30 385NU-301-536 5 36 395NU-301-624 6 24 420NU-301-630 6 30 430NU-301-636 6 36 440NU-301 PROFILESTANDARD SIZESNU-201CabinetWidth, ft.FilterHeight, in.Weight, lbs.NU-201-224 2 24 140NU-201-230 2 30 150NU-201-324 3 24 180NU-201-330 3 30 190NU-201-336 3 36 200NU-201-424 4 24 220NU-201-430 4 30 230NU-201-436 4 36 240NU-201-524 5 24 240NU-201-530 5 30 250NU-201-536 5 36 265NU-201-624 6 24 280NU-201-630 6 30 2906 1/4"FilterHeightremovableplexiglassend panels21"NU - 301NU-201 PROFILE22"19"36"FilterHeight20"4NOMINAL CABINETWIDTH - 21/2"+ or -1/2 adj.161/2"22"32" on NU-301NOMINAL CABINET WIDTH2"32"

AireGard 114 Universal Clean AirModuleThe AireGard NU-114 is a totally selfcontainedHEPA filter module thatcleanses air from particulates within anenclosed area. The module's highpoweredblower/motor combinationpulls room air through a rough pre-filterand filters the air from particulates asthe air flows back into the room throughthe large 99.99% HEPA filter. Theoperating horizontal airflow with thecabinet [90 LFPM {Linear Feet perMinute}] is controlled by a potentiometer.Recirculation, Positive orNegative Pressure EnvironmentsThe NU-114 can be used as a recirculationdevice or can be used as either a positivepressure or negative pressure device. Byplacing the NU-114 module between twospaces, the module will extract 720 CFMfrom one space and place it into thenext. If the supply air to the first spacewere less than 720 CFM, the room wouldbe under negative pressure. The creationof a negative pressure area helps tocontain [isolate] potentially harmfulroom contaminants.The creation of a positive pressureenvironment helps to protect cleanareas from contaminants entering fromanother room. An energy efficient cleanroom can be used for any applicationrequiring sterile work processes.TESTINGFull factory testing is your assurance ofreliability in the laboratory.
