Description

I made a Laminar flow box with the plates from OPMAATZAGEN.nl, for working under sterile conditions. Such a flow box is used, among other things, for plant breeding and microbiology work.

A budget-friendly laminar flow box

After I had found the right filter and fan, I made the calculations for the required dimensions . Based on this I made a construction plan. Then ordered the required sheet material to size from OPMAATZAGEN.nl. Once that was in, I started putting the project together. The box is mounted using wood glue and screws. The inside of the box is completely sealed airtight using silicone sealant. This forces all the air through the filter.
