What Is Laminar Flow?

Flow Hoods are the cornerstone of any mycology lab. A Laminar Flow system is vital in the control of particulate contamination. Laminar flow provides clean airflow to allow for a sterile working environment.

Why do you need a Flow Hood?

Our flow unit is designed for ISO cleanroom labs but is perfect for any mycologist looking to step up their game. These hoods guarantee 100% clean laminar air, giving you a perfect sterile working area.

Letting you effortlessly work in H14 laminar clean air with agar plates, making spore syringes and cultures, performing culture transfers, cloning, isolations & more! With this flow hood, you get the effectiveness and efficiency of an expensive cleanroom lab, at a fraction of the price.

How can I replace the filters?

Our design allows for easy replacement of the filters & pre filters, although the H14 grade HEPA filters on the LabPro Flow Hood can last years before they need to be replaced.

How to use Laminar Flow?

Simple plug-in and play; it's that simple! You can easily adjust the laminar flow to your preferred rate with the dial on the back of the unit; you have 3 settings to choose from.

To achieve laminar flow, air is initially drawn through an easy-change, high-quality pre-filter to remove all gross particulate. Turbulent flow then passes through the fan system, before being pushed through the H14 HEPA filter removing 99.999% of all particles >0.3μm in size.

Filtered air will then flow vertically towards the work surface at a velocity of 600 m3/hr to ensure no air from the room can flow back into the working area and guarantees an ISO Class 4, particle-free working environment.
