Under normal operating conditions 90% of the filtered air is recirculated through the main work chamber, airflow is induced in a downward direction and runs at a negative pressure to the room.
This negative pressure is achieved by nominally 10% of the recirculation volume being returned to the room via 'bleed' air filters (Hepa) and made up through the open front of the booth.
The design of the downflow booth is such that typically operator exposure levels (OEL) are maintained within the limits of 50Fg/m3.
