Description
The Human Health Therapeutics Research Center, National Research Council Canada has a requirement for the supply of quantity:1 double sided (pass-through), radial arm locking door, stainless steel jacketed sterilizer (steam autoclave) with a bioseal to meet the requirements of our Containment Level 3 operating license as issued by the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) and the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA). This is to replace an outdated and deteriorating existing unit. This equipment must have a stainless steel jacket, radial arm locking doors (dual sided), bioseal (To ensure the CL-3 lab is contained, CL-3 autoclaves are equipped with a biological sealing flange or bio-seal. A bio-seal provides separation and a positive seal between the hazardous side and safe side, which is imperative for the safety of personnel. The bio-seal shall be comprised of a steel or stainless- steel plate that is continuously welded to all four sides of the sterilizer. It extends out beyond the frame of the sterilizer to which the installer then attaches the barrier – a durable silicone gasket. The gasket extends between the barrier flange and the wall and is secured in place by stiffening bars to ensure a leak-tight fit. All penetrations through the barrier flange (for either wiring or plumbing) are fully potted to prevent air leaks) suitable for CL3 containment laboratories such that it meets the requirements as outlined in the current Edition (3rd) of the Canadian Biosafety Standard (CBS).
