Nine core lines covering containment, clean air, incubation, cold storage and analysis. Every unit is quoted against your actual application, commissioned by our own engineers and placed on a certification calendar.
Class II Type A2 cabinets protecting the operator, the sample and the room at once. The Airstream NS G4 is our most-specified unit for pharma QC and research microbiology — NSF-certified, compact, and drawing just 184 watts on the four-foot model.

Type A2 is ductless and plug-and-play. If your work involves volatile chemicals beyond trace amounts, a Type B2 total-exhaust cabinet is the correct choice — ask us before ordering.
Designed to provide a safe and controlled environment for the preparation and handling of cytotoxic and hazardous drugs. It protects laboratory personnel and the surrounding environment from exposure to hazardous aerosols and contaminants while maintaining a controlled work zone.
Ideal for: cytotoxic drug preparation, chemotherapy compounding, pharmaceutical research and other applications involving hazardous compounds.
Cytoculture® CYTFinal cabinet selection should be based on the specific drug, exposure potential, containment or OEB requirements, and the applicable standards. Tell us the compound and we will specify against it.
CelCulture® incubators in 170 L and 240 L chambers, with CO₂-only or CO₂ + O₂ control. Built for neuroscience, stem cell research, IVF, tissue engineering and mammalian cell work.

Copper chamber, stainless exterior, UV lamp, Peltier cooling and HITEMP sensor versions are available on the same 170 L and 240 L platforms.
Complete separation between the process, the operator and the room. Positive pressure protects the product; negative pressure protects the person. Six families cover everything from sterility testing to commercial filling.
GPPIIsolators are configured to the process rather than picked from a catalogue. Send us the operation, containment target and room constraints and we will scope it with Esco Pharma.
Long-term storage for DNA, RNA, vaccines, reagents, proteins, viruses, bacteria, cell preparations, enzymes and tissue. Four chamber sizes, two controllers and a choice of three or five inner doors.
Lexicon® II| Model | Description |
|---|---|
| UUS-_A-_-SS | Silver controller, 3 inner doors |
| UUS-_A-_-5D-SS | Silver controller, 5 inner doors |
| UUS-_B-_-SS | Gold controller, USB data download, 3 doors |
| UUS-_B-_-5D-SS | Gold controller, 5 doors |
| UUS-_D-SS | Lexicon® Dual-System, 7-inch touchscreen, ≤55 dBA |
There is no auto-defrost — the design uses natural convection, which means less noise, no fan power draw and less drying of stored material. Defrosting is manual.
The Esco ACC Series combines the Coulter principle with image analysis, giving objective and repeatable counts independent of cell type, morphology or operator.
ACC series| Model | Capability |
|---|---|
| ACC-100 | 1×10⁴–1×10⁷ cells/mL, no imaging module |
| ACC-200 | 1×10⁴–1×10⁸ cells/mL, imaging, trypan blue viability |
| ACC-300 | As ACC-200 plus automated staining |
Suited to cell therapy, biopharmaceutical development, vaccine production, stem cell research and PBMC work.
Two families for two situations. Ducted Frontier hoods exhaust to atmosphere and handle heat, high volumes and aggressive chemistry. Ductless Ascent hoods filter and recirculate, install anywhere and relocate freely.
Frontier® ducted
Ascent™ ductless| Situation | Recommendation |
|---|---|
| Heat + high-volume acid | Frontier® EFQ ducted |
| Transfer, dilution, titration | Ascent™ Max with type B carbon |
| Powders and cleanroom | ADC-E (carbon + HEPA) |
| Perchloric acid | EFP with wash-down and scrubber |
| Trace metal analysis | PPH all-polypropylene |
Fume hoods are containment devices, not storage. Chemicals belong in a dedicated base cabinet, and forced evaporation of waste is never appropriate in either type.
A specialised powder weighing enclosure for the safe and precise weighing, mixing and dispensing of hazardous or nuisance powders, including potent pharmaceutical compounds. Controlled inward airflow protects the operator while minimising turbulence around the balance, holding weighing stability to four decimal places.
Ideal for: API weighing, pharmaceutical powder handling, formulation, dispensing and other applications where containment and weighing accuracy are both critical.
PowderMax™Suitable for pharmaceutical, chemical and research laboratories. Where a GMP-grade containment specification applies, a ventilated balance enclosure may be the better route — we will advise which fits.
A clean, contamination-controlled workspace for PCR reagent and sample preparation. HEPA-filtered vertical laminar airflow minimises airborne contamination and cross-contamination, supporting reliable and reproducible PCR results.
Ideal for: PCR master-mix preparation, reagent preparation, sample preparation and other molecular biology applications where preventing contamination is critical.
Esco PCR CabinetPCR cabinets are intended for product protection and contamination control, not for protection against infectious or biohazardous samples. Where personnel or environmental protection is required, a Class II biological safety cabinet should be used.
Airstream® Gen 3 vertical laminar flow with glass side walls and a sliding sash. A controlled, sterile work surface for plant tissue culture, media preparation, non-pathogenic microbiology and sterile compounding.
LVG-4AG-S8| Segment | Meaning |
|---|---|
| LVG | Laminar, Vertical airflow, Glass side walls |
| 4 | 4 ft / 1.2 m width |
| A | 2 ft internal height |
| S | Sliding sash (F = fixed) |
| 8 | 220–240 VAC, 50/60 Hz (9 = 115 V) |
A laminar flow cabinet protects the sample, not the operator — the airflow travels toward you. It must never be used with infectious material.
Send the chemicals, volumes, room dimensions and exhaust availability. Where containment or chemical compatibility is in question we run Esco’s FiltraCheck assessment first, so you get the right filter and model rather than the nearest one.
We will come back with a specification, a drawing and a price — and if the model you asked for will not hold your chemistry, we will say so before you order.
