With the explosion in usage of High Potency Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (HPAPI’s), containment of these compounds and personnel protection have become of major concern to scientists. There is often a high expense associated with new equipment designed to handle the task. In order to combat these potentially high capital outlays, many companies are looking at alternative methods of containment, including modification of existing equipment. The Hybrid Isolator, offered by Flow Sciences, Inc., is one such method of reducing the cost of containment. The Hybrid Isolator is designed to protect workers from exposure to chemicals by fully encompassing equipment used by scientists during research and development, and manufacturing processes. The Isolator has been developed using Flow Sciences’ expertise in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and can be designed and manufactured to fit the customer’s needs. Air distributes evenly, without roll, across the HEPA filters and leaves through an adjustable speed fan with integrated alarm.
