Single-Tier Flexible Film (Softwall) Isolator "Starter" Labs Ensure Compatibility, Quality Control, Quicker Installation, Better Traceability & Easier Reorders


Positive or Negative Pressure Isolator Units

Single-Tier flexible film isolator "Starter Lab" includes:

CBC gnotobiotic isolator starter lab.
  • 1 ½" steel powder coated single shelf frame to prevent bending or warping.
  • HDPE tabletop with inserts for attaching isolator components.
  • Two-way locking wheels.
  • 5/8" PVC hold-down rod and SS clamps.
  • Blower and manifold system.
  • (1) 20 mil vinyl isolators.

Each CBC Flexible Film Canopy is Marked With its Own Unique Serial Number and Manufacture Date to Ensure Traceability and Better Customer Support.

Serial number and manufacture date help ensure traceability and better customer service.

When you buy one of our gnotobiotic isolator systems or just a canopy, your canopy will be marked with its own unique serial number and manufacture date. Should you ever have a issue with the canopy (or need a replacement) CBC can trace your canopy back to the exact specs previously ordered. The same for replacement canopies for existing frames and filter systems.

Better Customer Service

  • Traceability.
  • Faster replacement.
  • More accurate replacement.

Improved Living Environment

5 inch diameter filters provide better airflow.

Lower inlet port and upper outlet port can easily handle warm, moist air. Combined with our standard 5" filters (vs. competitive 3" filters), this design provides greater airflow and improves isolator's living environment.

Durable Construction

CBC Lap seam seal manufacturing process is more durable then single seam designs.

The polyurethane material used in our softwall isolators, cleanrooms and containment units is almost indestructible and helps ensure against contamination due to accidental puncture or tear. What's more, our lap seam sealing process is more durable than single seam seals.
