ARTICLE DESCRIPTION CODE
HELIOS 48 C 00275400000
HELIOS 72 C 00277100000
Helios are horizontal laminar airflow cabinets produced
by Steril and designed for the situation where is
requested the product protection from dangerous effects
due to uncontrolled diffusion of air-transported
contaminants from the environmental to the product
during its handling.
Applications
Normally used in laboratory of microbiology and cell
culture.
Furthermore, used in innovative fields of scientific
research and above all in the manipulation of:
• Quality Control in food industries
• Micro mechanical assembly
• Preparation of nutritional parentheral bags
• IVF
Performances
Product Protection
Sterility in the working area higher than ISO 5 class according to ISO EN 14644-1 @ 0,3 and 0,5 µm particles size (Class
100/M3.5 according to Federal Standard 209E) with a laminar air flow velocity of 0,40 m/s +/-20%.
Since HELIOS is not a biosafety cabinet, it is not suitable for handling pathogens components.
Norms and directives
As far as electrical safety is concerned, the cabinet is manufactured according to EN 61010 norm and in particular:
EN 292-1 EN 292-2 EN 61010-1 EN 50081-1 EN 50082-1 EN 50081-2
EN 50082-2 IEC 801-2 IEC 801-4 ENV 50140 ENV 50141
Furthermore it has been designed to fulfil the European Directives like:
Machinery Directive 89/392/EEC, 91/368/EEC, 93/44/EEC, 93/68 EEC.
Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive 89/336/EEC, 92/31/EEC, 93/68/EEC.
The Masini Institute of Milan tested it and copy of the certification is available on request.
Low voltage Directive 72/23/EEC, 93/68/EEC.
IMPORTANT !!
The cabinets we produce, according to the above statements, are manufactured in compliance with the laws on safety
into force.

Particularly, they are manufactured in compliance with Art. 6 Dlgs 626/94 and its modification (Italian law in compliance
with European Directive EEC/89/391) on the DUTY OF DESIGNERS, OF MANUFACTURERS, OF SUPPLIERS AND
INSTALLATORS.
The cabinets are NOT submitted to the directive EEC 93/42 on Medical Devices, as indicated in the definition of “Medical
Devices” reported in art. 1 point 2a of the Directive mentioned.
STERIL IS NOT responsible for damages to people and objects due to a non proper use of the cabinet, and due to a fail
to comply with the user instructions and maintenance that are always supplied with the cabinets.
Technical Specification
Working surface in stainless steel AISI 304L “2B” finishing with 15 mm lift (see
picture).
Side walls in toughened safety glass with 3 holes 19 mm diameter for the easy
passage of external connection of fluids and/or cables without necessity of factory
assembly.
Lighting on working surface by means of 2 fluorescent lamps of 36W fitted in noncontaminated
area for HELIOS 48 and 58W for HELIOS 72.
Construction structure in steel epoxy-polyester powder coated, resistant to the most
common industrial disinfectants.
Ventilation system by means of n°1 motor blower for HELIOS 48 dedicated to the
one-way airflow in the working chamber.
HELIOS 72 is supplied with n° 2 motor blowers in parallel way system
The motor blower is centrifugal type, direct driven motor with double aspiration and
protection factor IP55.
Air filtration by means of disposable high retention capacity pre-filters and H14
HEPA filters with efficiency 99,995% MPPS according to EN 1822 (99,999% tested
with DOP @ 0,3 µm).
Protection grid, for HEPA filter made by anodized aluminium.
Command and Controls
Air ventilation control by means of automatic regulation of the revolution velocity of the motor blower. High-resolution
flow rate volumetric device, directly interfaced to microprocessor, achieve the automatic regulation. The microprocessor
guarantees the activity of the motor blower and controls the optimal function even in presence of effects caused by
progressive clogging of the HEPA filters.
Alarm device optical (red light signal visible from working position and display message) and acoustic (buzzer) type,
activated, at real time, by the microprocessor, with indication of type of alarm activate showing on a wide alpha numeric
display.
Monitoring with alarms of laminar air flow velocity out of the pre-set range;
Alpha numeric display showing:
• Laminar air flow speed in m/s;
• Date and time
• Hours counters for cabinet life
• UV Lamp run hours
• HEPA filters run hours
• Date of last HEPA filters change
• Date of last service
• Change language
• Change password
• Setting UV timer program
• Date of last power failure
Tests control
In our Quality Control Dept., according to our procedure WI-MFG-006 included in the Quality manual of Steril
Equipment Division. The Quality System of Steril Equipment Division is certified in compliance to EN ISO 9001 –2000
with a Certificate n° CERT-00669-95-AQ-MIL-SINCERT/B released by “DNV – Det Norske Veritas”.
On request, validation tests at site with IQ/OQ protocols are available.
