Setting up a Laboratory – Standard Lab is not easy for a new establishment, from designing and building to purchasing adequate equipment. In this article, we will guide you to standardize your laboratory and minimize the cost, while ensuring aesthetics and practicality for the laboratory.
Principles of Laboratory Setup
In a modern laboratory, it is a necessary condition to advance the level of science and improve research results using advanced and high-quality laboratory equipment. “User orientation” is an important principle in our planning. Safety, efficiency and comfort are the 3 big factors when we plan and design the laboratory today.
Safety:
We need to ensure safety when we conduct lab experiments. To ensure the health of technicians, hazardous wastes with strong chemical odors need to be removed from the laboratory when tests are carried out.Efficiency:
Improving experimental efficiency by speeding up the manipulation process. We need to choose the right lab equipment based on different lab types and different processes.
Comfort:
Vibrant and user-friendly colors, complying with industrial management regulations will ensure a comfortable working zone for researchers in an environment with high utilities.
Regarding the hygiene of the working environment, only black and gray are suitable for use. This is inconvenient. Therefore our company can offer you a colorful lab with high standards.
Current Standard for Laboratory Layout Methodology
? Layout in the middle of the laboratory
It is the space for the central lab table, the sink position is installed on the vertical position of the center table top or the center position of the center table. Portable reagent racks or hoods can be placed on the central laboratory table.? Right position near the window
The laboratory table against the wall, the workbench, the anti-vibration balance, and the chemical shelf are placed on the wall-mounted laboratory table, the shelf can be combined with the wall cabinet.? Left and right of the door
Place safety equipment including emergency showers, eyewashes, and fire extinguishers.? Left position near the door
Place fume hoods, lab benches, wall-mounted reagent racks, wall-mounted sinks, wall cabinets, large equipment, etc.? Left position near the window
Place the lab table close to the wall, the workbench, the sample storage shelf for the test table, or the large instruments.? Open positions.
It is suitable for bench place, test station, and microscope station because it has good visibility for operating.Consulting Lab Setup – Building a Lab
? Key points for building a laboratory:
Based on a number of features different from the general architecture, for example, safety, external environment, comfort in terms of noise, smell, visibility, mobility and the functions of the device, and convenience for information processing, we provide the best design and equipment to meet the needs.
? Set up electricity, water, and gas plumbing:
Electricity, water, and gas plumbing placement are very important. It should be considered which is the most comprehensive way for the entire lab and whether the form of the architecture is high-rise or ground-floor and whether future expansion, safety, cost, and functionality are advisable.
Air Conditioning in the Laboratory
Changing the atmosphere in the lab is very important to keep the lab environment in good condition. The duration of air change varies according to the type of laboratory, the area, and the method used. Duration for air change is displayed as test data:
The toxic air caused by the fume hood is discharged at the same time. Hood air volume should be factored into the total load when designing laboratory air conditioners. One of the methods to reduce the volume of air from the fume hood leaked to the laboratory is to choose a toxic fume hood that can discharge air directly.
