The Skan HFC-SH900 is a used laboratory safety cabinet — sometimes referred to as a laminar flow cabinet or clean bench — designed to provide sterile, controlled working conditions in laboratory environments. Skan is a Swiss manufacturer specialising in containment and air-handling solutions for pharmaceutical, biotech, and research laboratory applications. This unit was manufactured in Switzerland and is from 2010, currently located in Germany and offered in used condition.
The cabinet is configured as a horizontal laminar flow workbench, delivering a controlled, laminar airflow across the work surface to maintain a sterile environment. Access to the working area is provided through a windshield fitted with a glove opening. The interior is constructed from stainless steel, ensuring durability and ease of decontamination. The machine has logged 14,573 hours on its hour counter. It is important to note that the HEPA filter is not currently installed; the unit can be retrofitted with a compatible filter, making it suitable for buyers who wish to specify their own filtration configuration.
Control and monitoring are handled by the SKANCONTROL SKC4 operating panel, which provides an intuitive interface for adjusting brightness, fan speed (switchable between high and low settings), and operating modes. The SKC4 also integrates comprehensive alarm functionality, covering ionization errors, activated carbon capacity status, filter differential pressure, airflow conditions, and power-related events, with an hour counter for recording cumulative operating time.
On the electrical side, the unit operates on a single-phase 1/N/PE AC supply at 230 V and 50 Hz, drawing a rated current of 1.82 A. Power consumption is 0.42 kW, making this a notably energy-efficient unit for its class. The machine weighs between 150 and 190 kg and features a compact 900 mm working width, well suited to space-constrained laboratory installations. The listing price is $1,200.
