The LabGard NU-629 Class II Type A2 Biological
Safety Cabinet/Cage Changing Station provides
personnel, product, and environmental protection
for sensitive animal handling and cage changing
procedures. Built to withstand the rigors of use
and abuse in an animal facility, the NU-629 is both
mobile and height adjustable with the following
key features:
Safety
• Greater visibility and reach through a large 12” access
opening along with Class II Type A2 bio-hazard containment
through a 105 FPM air barrier.
• Uni-directional laminar air flow (minimizes air turbulence or
cross contamination between animals.
• All contaminated ducts, plenums, and gaskets are under
negative pressure or surrounded by negative pressure to
eliminate the possibility of cabinet or gasket leaks and to
NU-629
guard against HEPA failure.
[A]
[B]
The height of the work surface is adjustable within a 13 1/4” (337 mm) range from minimum of 25 1/4”
(991 mm). This flexibility allows a user to sit or stand, as well as accommodating a wide range of user
heights. The AireGard 629 features a redesigned front panel to allow the user to stand closer to the
unit, providing a better sight line to the work surface. [A] The work surface can be lifted or removed
quickly without tools to allow for routine disinfection or cleaning liquid spills. [B]

LabGard NU-629 Biological Safety Cabinet
Ergonomic Auto-Lift
•Electronically adjustable work surface height from 27” to 39”
(42” with optional lift system) accommodates the ergonomic
needs of multiple users who may be sitting or standing.
• As a bench style cabinet with the motor/blower located in the
top, the NU629 is ideal for seated animal procedure work that
is designed for ergonomics and allows a chair to fit completely
underneath the work surface.
• The narrow profile of the lift system does not add to the overall
width of the cabinet.
HEPA Filtration
• High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filtration is 99.99%
efficient on removal of particulates for supply (re-circulated)
and exhausted air.
•Energy efficient DC style ECM motor offers an energy savings of
more than 50% over conventional motor technology. The ECM
motor also creates an increase in total filter load capacity of
250%, to extend the HEPA filter life expectancy from
7 – 10 years.
• Adjustable internal damper and motor speed control further
extend HEPA filter life. Pre-filters capture bedding, hair and
dander and are easy to access for cleaning underneath the
prop up work tray.

• Removable pre-filter protects the 3” (76 mm) thick
HEPA filter.
• Personnel protection from allergens and other aerosolized
particulate generated in the dumping process by a 100 FPM
(0.5 m/s) air barrier across the access opening.
•Well-lit work area provided by fluorescent light mounted on
the back wall of the enclosure.
• HEPA module mounted on a 16 gauge stainless steel wrap
that is bolted through a gasket to the top of the

The NuAire NU-125-Spec enclosure provides personnel protection from
allergens and other aerosolized particulates generated in the dumping
process, by a 100 FPM (0.5 m/s) air barrier across the 24” (610 mm)
access of the enclosure.

Custom Bedding Dump Station
NuAire has developed many custom enclosures
designed to protect personnel from allergens and
odors associated with dumping procedures in
animal facilities.
From small requirements for a limited number of cages to high
volume facilities, NuAire can offer a safety enclosure tailored to
meet the needs of nearly every animal resource facility. The Dual
Dump Station (pictured) is an example of an enclosure designed
for a high-volume facility. Characteristics of this include:
• 16 gauge welded stainless steel design.
•Ergonomic adjustable height base stand allows users
to adjust to comfortable work-surface height.
•Easily cleanable work zone is barrier and crevice free.
• Large front access opening protected by 100 FPM (0.5 m/s)
Class I air barrier ensures that allergens and aerosolized
particulates are retained by HEPA filter.
•Optional charcoal filter controls odors from bedding
materials, or enclosure may be exhausted from the building
through an optional thimble-type transition on top of
the enclosure.
• Pre-assembled safety enclosure with Garb-el disposal or
retrofit safety enclosures to Garb-el systems in the field.

Where mobility is an issue, consider the NU-607 bedding disposal cabinet.
If containment of biohazardous bedding is required, the NU-602 can be
modified for refuse disposal.
The unit was specifically designed with two 16 gauge welded stainless
steel dump chutes, which allows two users to work side-by-side.
