The American Association for Laboratory Animal Science has held its annual National Meeting each fall since 1950. This meeting is designed to bring professionals together from multiple industries to have workshops, lectures, exhibits, and topics relevant to the entire base of people who work within laboratory animal science. APC Filtration is excited to be an […]
A properly-ventilated caging system means a reduced cost in labor, money, and resources. Finding long term cost solutions by designing the right air filter is the key for success. APC Filtration works with global OEM’s to design custom air filters for animal caging systems and the caging industry. There are a variety of considerations to […]
From daycares to universities, allergens can be very problematic in schools and educational institutions. While educators have taken great lengths to help accommodate children with food allergies, there are also millions of children suffering from airborne allergens. This includes pollen, dust, dust mites, dirt, dander, mould, and more. Students suffering from allergies in the classroom […]
With hurricanes a large concern for many parts of North America this upcoming season, having a solid disaster recovery plan in place for your company is key to its success. Being prepared for the worst is an important part of disaster prep. But how can you predict the severity of the impact of a hurricane […]
Clean benches provide filtered air across a work surface in laboratories to protect samples from contamination. They are used in a variety of laboratories, including medicine, research, manufacturing, pharmaceutical manufacturing, food processing, and more. Their broad spectrum of uses means that each clean bench and industry has their own custom needs, processes, and equipment. This ensures that […]
Laminar flow cabinets are used in a variety of environments, particularly where a clean air environment is required for smaller items or samples. They are a key part of any laboratory and a requirement for keeping samples free of contaminants that could damage them. Laminar flow hoods protect the working environment from dust and other […]
Laboratory scientists and researchers working with hazardous pathogens and biological experiments must have the proper equipment to ensure that they, the public, and their research data are kept safe and not contaminated. Labs work with biological and chemical elements across fields of research that can present a very real danger if not properly contained. Air […]
When a client approaches APC to design and manufacture a custom air filter, our RFQ process provides a predefined approach to filter design and performance expectations for client review. Once filter design has been established, product drawings are created for customer review and approval. Then BOM’s are created for costing and a quote is prepared […]
ULPA (Ultra Low Particulate Air) filters are required in sensitive areas that require the highest level of air filtration. An ULPA filter meeting North American and European test standards can remove from the air a minimum of 99.999% of dust, pollen, mold, bacteria particles at 0.12 microns or larger. ULPA filters can also be used in conjunction with carbon […]
Critical air filters are designed and engineered to meet airflow ranges from 1 to 5000 SCFM. Filter efficiencies range from prefilters starting at 60% ASHRA Efficiency up to ULPA at 99.999995% @ 0.1 microns in particle size. APC qualifies each filter design through in-house 3D modeling and laboratory testing to meet North America and European […]
