Clean Chamber for Better Cell Viability
Built-in UV sterilization and HEPA filters bring the sterility of the biosafety cabinet to the benchtop.
Four high-powered fans channel air through 2 HEPA H14 filters to remove 99.995% of unwanted particles and microorganisms as part of the Clean Chamber™ technology, which also includes UV-C germicidal lights, rounded edges and positive air pressure. Initiate Clean Chamber before beginning your experiment to ensure full sterility around the print area for the duration of the print.
