BENCHKOTE® AND BENCHKOTE PLUS™
Benchkote
Benchkote is an absorbent, impermeable material designed to protect laboratory surfaces against hazardous spills. The material features a high quality, smooth, absorbent Whatman paper
which quickly absorbs liquid spills and a laminated polyethylene layer that prevents flow through to the working surface. After use the sheet is incinerated or disposed of according to local regulations. This makes both Benchkote and Benchkote Plus excellent products that comply with OSHA Regulation 29CFR 1910.1030 for Occupational Exposure to Bloodborne Pathogens.
Benchkote Plus
Benchkote Plus is a thicker, more absorbent material for more demanding applications and can absorb in excess of 0.75 litres of water per square meter.
Features and Benefits
Material is very strong, making it tear resistant, wet or dry
Smooth white surface can be written on with ink or pencil and lies flat
Suitable for saturation with disinfectant to protect benches where pathogens and other bacteria are present
Use polyethylene side up to collect deposits without absorption
Paper side quickly absorbs liquids preventing liquids from going through to the working surface
Spillages are trapped in the absorbent paper
Benchkote can be picked up and burnt very easily after use; the polyethylene layer does not melt or drip but is rapidly consumed in the flames
Applications
Containing radiochemical spillage and avoiding contamination
Recovering spillage of expensive materials
Protecting hard surfaces to lessen impact
Water or solvent wick for humidity chambers
Lining of chemical cabinets, laboratory bench drawers and laboratory hoods

VENTAM 76 AUTOMATIC INTERLOCK SYSTEM
The Ventam 76 Automatic Interlock System automatically regulates the extract and intake air fan speed in proportion to actual real-time gas consumption. It will also cut off the supply of gas should
the mechanical ventilation system fail.
This is an energy efficient system, which reduces running costs by saving electricity charges, and also reduces ambient heating costs by reducing unnecessary air extraction.
Benefits include the following;
Automatically varies the extract fan speed and the fresh air fan speed in proportion to actual gas consumption.
Relieves staff of the responsibility to adjust the fan speed in proportion to increased/decreased gas consumption.
Reduced heat loss due to excessive air extraction which will reduce the climate change levy costs. This heat loss is not limited to the kitchen area - heat from the dining area is also extracted and often heat from adjoining corridors is also extracted unnecessarily.
Lower fan speeds results in reduced electricity costs which will reduce the climate change levy costs.
Reduced staff complaints of the kitchen being too cold to work in due to excessive and unnecessary ventilation.
Increased life of mechanical fan components.
CE certified products.
System is on site programmable for actual site gas consumption.
Service timer that requires manual reset after 12 hours.
Sensor fault indication.
Fans ON / OFF indication.
Gas ON / OFF indication.
Emergency Stop operated indication.
Service operated indication and intermittent buzzer.
Automatic Direct Inputs from room thermostat to increase fan speeds in hot weather.
