Thermo Scientific HERAsafe KS 18 Class II NSF A2 6' Biological Safety Cabinet Hood
Tested and works well: the fan blows hard (see photos with air flow measurements), the fluorescent and ozone lights illuminate, the motorized sash goes up and down like it should, the remote control works well. Small crack in remote plastic. Has some corrosion on the inner surfaces and glass, but still works well.

About this BSC, "The Thermo Scientific HERAsafe KS 18 is a 6-foot Class II Type A2 biological safety cabinet designed for clean, controlled work with nonvolatile biological materials in research, clinical, pharmaceutical, and microbiology labs. This NSF-listed cabinet provides personnel, product, and environmental protection through HEPA-filtered laminar airflow and a negative-pressure contaminated plenum design typical of Class II A2 systems, making it well suited for cell culture, media preparation, tissue handling, and other aseptic workflows where containment and cleanliness both matter. The 6' interior gives you substantially more usable workspace than smaller cabinets, which is clutch for wider setups, multiple operators, or applications involving racks, instruments, and frequent material movement. Thermo’s HERAsafe line is widely recognized for dependable containment performance, ergonomic operation, and strong fit in regulated lab environments, so this unit makes a solid choice for facilities that need a full-size BSC from a known OEM."
Due to size and weight, this cabinet must be shipped via freight. Buyer is responsible for paying for the costs of freight shipping.
