Sluice systems are a critical component of laboratory environments, ensuring reliable and secure operation. For fault-free functionality, various types of sluices are required, all designed with gas-tight construction to maintain strict containment.
A primary function of the sluice is to separate clean laboratory areas from contaminated research zones while still allowing safe and controlled access. In addition, sluices play a vital role in the disinfection of personnel and materials, preventing the release of harmful microorganisms into the external environment.
Waste generated within containment areas is safely treated using autoclaves, while larger sluice systems enable the secure transfer of animals, materials, equipment, and feed. As sluices represent controlled openings within the containment barrier, their safe and reliable operation is essential to maintaining biological security.
