Recirculatory Filtration Fume Cabinets

This document applies to Recirculatory Filtration Fume Cabinets (RFFC).
Recirculatory Filtration Fume Cabinets are devices intended to protect their users by means of:
—   the ability to contain  hazardous concentrations or quantities of airborne contaminants ;
—   the ability to remove hazardous concentrations or quantities of airborne contaminants from air exhausted from within the fume cabinet by means of filtration before the air is recirculated (to the room in which the fume cabinet is located).
This document includes design and manufacturing requirements together with type testing procedures.
For the use of a mixture of chemicals a risk assessment shall be performed with the help of the instructions for use in order to select the appropriate filter(s).
For special applications and usage such as CMR substances, local regulation may apply and shall be followed. These local regulations may result on restriction of usage.
This standard is not intended to address fume cupboards, or devices used as animal accommodation. For fume cupboards the standard series EN 14175 applies. For Microbiolical safety cabinets EN 12469 applies.

Umluft-Filter-Einhausungen

Dieses Dokument gilt für Umluft-Filter-Einhausungen (en: Recirculatory Filtration Fume Cupboards, RFFC).
Umluft-Filter-Einhausungen sind Vorrichtungen, die dazu gedacht sind, ihre Anwender zu schützen durch:
-   die Fähigkeit, potentiell gefährliche Materialien zurückzuhalten;
-   die Fähigkeit, potentiell gefährliche Materialien aus der aus dem Abzugsinneren abgegebenen Luft durch Filtration zu entfernen, bevor die Luft umgewälzt wird (in den Raum, in welchem der Abzug steht).
Dieses Dokument beinhaltet Anforderungen an die Konstruktion und die Herstellung mitsamt Typprüfverfahren.

Sorbonnes à recirculation

Le présent document s'applique aux sorbonnes à recirculation (RFFC).
Les sorbonnes à recirculation sont des dispositifs destinés à protéger les utilisateurs grâce à :
-   leur capacité à confiner des substances potentiellement dangereuses ;
-   leur capacité à éliminer les matières potentiellement dangereuses de l'air extrait de l'intérieur de la sorbonne par filtration, avant qu'il ne recircule (dans la pièce où se trouve la sorbonne).
Le présent document contient des exigences de conception et de fabrication, en association avec des procédures d’essais de type.
