Abstract

The present invention provides a measured containment control system fitted to a laboratory containment device 1. These devices can have a variety of coherent enclosure configurations in terms of size and geometry. User access to these devices can be by means of either an opening or the use of gloves with, in this latter case, typically filtration of the intake and exhaust ventilation. The system comprises further at least one sensor 6, an exhaust duct 5 or exhaust outlet connected to the laboratory containment device 1 for ventilation, an air flow control means 2 for controlling the exhaust air volume in the exhaust duct 5 and a control unit 13 connected to at least one sensor 6 and to the air flow control means 2. The control unit 13 is arranged to receive signals from at least one sensor 6 constantly and adjusting, based on these signals, the air flow control means 2 to change the exhaust air volume from the laboratory containment device 1.
