About Air Science FDC-006

Single chamber evidence drying cabinets are available in six exterior widths (from 30" to 96") and two heights (74.375" and 82.25"). Each model includes a single control system and single or dual filter/blower systems depending on size.

Standard height cabinets are designed to pass through standard doorways on casters for maximum mobility. Tall units offer a greater drying height and are typically located in a fixed position and are not usually moved from one location to another.

Introduction
Safekeeper series forensic evidence drying cabinets are designed to store, dry or otherwise process forensic evidence in the controlled environment of a tamper resistant compartment to maintain the chain of custody.

The industry leading Multiple filtration system, combined with professional design and construction offer convenience and protect the safety of personnel during use, maintenance and decontamination of the cabinets

Ductless Technology:
The Eco-friendly Choice
Advanced carbon filtration technology offers a safe, high performance alternative to ducted cabinets for a broad range of law enforcement applications.

• Environmental Benefits - Air Science Safekeeper forensic evidence drying cabinets isolate and trap biological and chemical vapors to prevent operator exposure, prevent cross contamina-tion, and eliminate ecological impact through release into the environment.

• Versatile - Each filtration system is designed for specific forensic applications using our exclusive Multiplex filtration technology

• Easy to Install - Safekeeper drying cabinets are self-contained; venting to the outside is optional. Downflow and standard units are portable and may be moved from one location to another without filter changes and with minimal downtime. Set-up, operation and filter maintenance are straightforward.

• Energy Efficient - Because filtered air is returned to the room, no demands are required of the facility HVAC capacity for make-up air.

• Cost Effective - Facility ductwork, HVAC and construction costs are eliminated

• Safe to Use - Cabinet airflow and face velocity protect users from incidental exposures to fumes, odors or bloodborne pathogens.

• Self Testing - (select models) Electronic airflow monitoring assures continuous safety. An electronic gas sensor monitors carbon filter performance

Managing Forsenic Evidence:
Because cross-contam-ination can occur when drying blood-stained or wet evidence on examination tables, on a floor, in a jail cell, shower stall, closet, evidence room or in the trunk of a patrol car, loss of trace evidence and lack of evidence security can compromise a case.

The Air Science Safekeeper series of drying and storage cabinets provide a secure, tamper-resistant area for drying and storing clothing, bed sheets, blankets, towels or other items collected from homicide and sexual assault cases. Safekeeper cabinets are constructed of polypro-pylene that does not absorb liquids, is easily cleaned with household detergents, and can be sprayed with a 10% bleach solution to eliminate bloodborne pathogens and DNA.

Cross-contamination between items of evidence dried in Safekeeper cabinets is eliminated. The cabinet floor may be lined with a kraft paper sheet or an optional evidence collection tray to catch trace evidence such as hair or fibers that may fall off the substrate. Optional self-locking evidence security tags provide tamper-resistant "locks" to keep contents secure during drying, maintaining and documenting the chain of custody and reducing defense challenges to evidence handling.

The Air Science Multiplex filtration system prevents cross- contamination and fully protects the operator from the hazards associated with the evidence. It also provides the cleanest air available in the industry. Because there is no ANSI standard for forensic drying cabinets, Air Science Safekeeper products are designed to meet ANSI ductless fume hood specifications. The Air Science carbon filter provides superior efficiency with an optional safety filter to bring the cabinet into full ANSI compliance.


Other Features:
Standards Compliant: Performance specifications and construction meet or exceed OSHA, ANSI and relevant international standards to assure operator safety.

Construction: The cabinet features white polypropylene and epoxy coated steel construction; tempered glass doors; and 110V, 60Hz single phase electrical supply (other voltages are available on request).

Optional UV Lamp: Activated ultraviolet light provides secondary disinfection of the interior between cases to prevent cross contamination, ensuring integrity of the samples for DNA testing.

Air Science Safekeeper Series Advantage
Safekeeper forensic evidence drying cabinets provide cost-effective storage and containment for forensic evidence as it is dried by a constant flow of air. Air Science ductless technology removes airborne pathogens, particulates, fumes, and odors emitted by the contents.

Safekeeper forensic evidence drying cabinets offer these advantages:

• Elimination of putrid odors and chemical fumes using eco-friendly ductless technology carbon filtration.

• Effective protection to personnel from particulate hazards.

• ANSI Z9.5 compliance with optional safety back-up filters on selected models.

• Controlled airflow to dry items of evidence in the cabinet.

• Lockable doors with tamper-proof seals for security.

• Broad range of sizes for diverse needs.

• Selected models available with versatile two, three and four independent drying chambers.

• Easily cleaned to protect items of evidence from cross-contamination.

• Safe and easy to change filters.

• Compliant with OSHA/ANSI regulations.

• Push-pull shelving, hanging rods and lockable front doors facilitate application of cabinets to many situations.

• Standard height and Downflow models are designed to be moved around a building through standard doorways and elevators. Extra tall units are intended to remain stationary in one room.


Air Science Multiplex Filtration Technology
Multiplex airflow and filtration elements for general purpose series drying cabinets.

• Electrostatic pre-evidence filter with 99.5% efficiency down to 0.5 microns protects evidence from cross-contamination by air drawn into the unit. It can be changed without tools. Optional HEPA/ULPA filter available.

• Additional elec-trostatic pre-filter (duplicate of the pre-evidence filter) protects and extends the life of main and optional exhaust filters and can be changed without tools while unit is running to prevent operator exposure to captured contaminants.

• HEPA/ULPA main filter captures biological and other particles larger than 0.3 microns (HEPA) or 0.12 microns (ULPA).

• Activated carbon main filter, selected for General Purpose and downflow forensic evidence drying; filter captures putrid organic odors as well as other fumes that may be present, (e.g., alcohol, solvents, gasoline, etc.).

• Security key to filter access door.

• The carbon main filter selected for Drugkeeper models captures specific vapors generated by typical substances found at metham-phetamine labs.

• Filter clamping mechanism allows removal of main filter(s) directly to disposal bag with track and wheel system.

• Filter gasket evenly seals filter faces to prevent bypass air leakage.

• Inter-filter test port allows air sampling for manual testing of filter performance.

• Filter identification window shows the installed filter part number and installation date for convenience and to encourage timely filter replacement.

• Optional HEPA/ULPA exhaust filter (complies with ANSI Z9.5 when fitted).

• Optional exhaust collar.

• High velocity sparkless and brushless centri-fugal fan.

• Dynamic filtration chamber prevents any possible leakage of contaminated air by pressurizing the fan plenum (positive air) and depressurizing the filter compartment (negative air).
