Nuclear Downflow Booth
Nuclear Downflow Booth
Hosokawa Micron’s Nuclear Downflow Booth is a high-performance containment solution designed to protect operators during the manual handling of hazardous or sensitising materials. Featuring recirculating vertical unidirectional airflow and advanced multi-stage HEPA filtration, the booth ensures airborne particles are safely captured and removed. Single pass systems are used to remove harmful gasses and vapours from the internal atmosphere.
Trusted by the pharmaceutical, chemical, cosmetics, and nuclear sectors, our booths reduce reliance on PPE while delivering compliance with cGMP, FDA, and EMA standards. Configurable with options such as barrier screens, ATEX compliance, integrated lighting, and automated control systems, Hosokawa’s Downflow Booths offer unmatched safety, flexibility, and operational efficiency.
Applicable Industries:
Nuclear
Provides a controlled environment for handling radioactive powders, reducing operator exposure and contamination risk through advanced filtration and airflow systems designed for high-risk materials.
Pharmaceutical
Ensures safe handling of potent APIs and fine powders, maintaining cleanroom integrity and operator protection during weighing, sampling, or dispensing.
Chemical
Ideal for managing hazardous or sensitising compounds, offering high-level containment and filtration to protect workers and maintain air quality during manual chemical processing tasks
Cosmetics
Maintains product purity and operator safety when handling fine powders, pigments, or fragrances, supporting hygienic production and reducing cross-contamination in open manual processes.
Product Information
Hosokawa Micron’s Nuclear Downflow Booths are engineered to create a safe, clean, and ergonomic workspace for handling potentially harmful materials. Designed for manual operations such as weighing, sampling, dispensing, and drum tipping, these booths maintain air quality through unidirectional vertical airflow and advanced HEPA filtration.
Available in standard and fully bespoke configurations, the booths can be adapted to a wide range of industrial needs and room layouts. Single-pass or recirculating airflow models are available, and a modular design allows integration with additional equipment such as PLC controls, temperature regulation, airlocks, and ATEX-rated components. OEL levels can reach <10μg/m³, or even 1μg/m³ with optional high-containment barrier screens.
