Frequently Asked Questions — Bio Safety Cabinet BIKS Series
Q: What is a Class II Biological Safety Cabinet and how does it protect users?
A: A Class II BSC provides simultaneous protection for the operator, product, and environment. The BIKS series draws room air inward at 60 fpm (inflow velocity) preventing aerosol escape, while HEPA-filtered downflow air at 105 fpm keeps the work zone sterile. All exhaust air passes through a 99.999%-efficient HEPA filter, removing particles ≥0.3 microns before recirculation or discharge.
Q: Which BIKS model should I choose — BIKS-2, 3, 4, 5 or 6?
A: The model number corresponds to the working width in feet. Choose BIKS-2 (2'×2'×2') for compact single-user tasks, BIKS-3 or BIKS-4 for standard laboratory benches, and BIKS-5 or BIKS-6 for multi-user or high-throughput applications. All models share identical airflow, filter efficiency, and build quality — only the working area and external footprint differ.
Q: What is the difference between HEPA and the optional ULPA filter?
A: Standard BIKS cabinets use HEPA filters rated 99.999% efficient at ≥0.3 microns — sufficient for BSL-1 and BSL-2 work including cell culture and microbiology. The optional ULPA (Ultra-Low Penetration Air) filter achieves 99.9999% efficiency at 0.12 microns and is recommended for BSL-3 environments, pharmaceutical aseptic processing, or nanotechnology research.
Q: What applications is the BIKS Bio Safety Cabinet suited for?
A: The BIKS series is used for microbiology research, cell and tissue culture, pharmaceutical compounding, virological assays, clinical diagnostics, mycology, in-vitro fertilisation (IVF), veterinary laboratory work, environmental sample testing, and BSL-1/BSL-2 university or college practicals.
Q: How is the BIKS cabinet validated and certified before delivery?
A: Every BIKS cabinet undergoes pre-delivery testing including KI discus particle challenge, airflow velocity profiling (inflow and downflow), HEPA filter integrity photometer scan, noise level check (≤65 dBA), and illumination verification (≥650 Lux). Manufactured under ISO 9001:2015 quality management with NSF/ANSI 49 performance criteria. A test certificate accompanies each shipment.
Q: What body construction options are available?
A: The outer shell is available in Powder Coated Mild Steel (MS), SS304, or SS316 stainless steel for high-corrosion environments. The work surface is standard Stainless Steel 304 — chemically resistant, autoclavable, and scratch-resistant. All internal welds are coved and polished to eliminate microbial harbour points.
Q: Can AJKANT Overseas export the BIKS Bio Safety Cabinet internationally?
A: Yes. AJKANT Overseas exports the BIKS series to 25+ countries including Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana, UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Malaysia, Philippines, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Tanzania, and more. We provide full export documentation (commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of origin, test certificate) and support sea/air freight with flexible payment terms (LC, TT, DA/DP).
