Frequently asked questions
What sizes are available?+
Two: a 4 ft nominal width (part ALLER620-400) and a 5 ft nominal width (part ALLER620-500). Select the width on the product page — the two are priced separately.
What are the dimensions and weight?+
The 5 ft configuration is listed at 62 in. wide x 31 in. deep x 83 in. high and approximately 500 lb. The 83 in. height and 500 lb mass are the two figures that most often cause a problem on site, so check doorway height, lift capacity and floor loading on the route in.
What is the electrical requirement?+
115 V. The source technical drawing covers electrical provisioning as part of the site-planning information, but does not give a current draw in the material we hold — ask us to confirm the amperage before you commit a circuit.
What is it used for?+
Small-animal cage changing in a vivarium. The source technical drawing describes it as aiding cage changing while providing safeguards to maintain animal sterility, and the dual-sided NU-620 configuration is designed so operators can work the unit from either side.
What condition is this unit in?+
It is offered as pre-owned capital equipment (the variation SKUs are prefixed U-). The listing does not state filter age, certification status or service history. Containment and sterility performance on any transfer station depends on its filtration and airflow being within spec, so budget for a certification test before it goes into service and ask us what documentation comes with the specific unit.
Is it the same as the NU-621-500?+
The source technical drawing covers both the NU-620-500 and the NU-621-500. This listing is for the NU-620 configuration. If your protocol or site drawing specifies the NU-621, confirm with us before ordering.

NSF Certified Class II Type A2 Biosafety Cabinet With Detachable Stand - Various Sizes
NSF certified Class II Type A2 biosafety cabinet in 3, 4 or 6 ft widths, with all exhaust air HEPA filtered before release and a detachable stand.
Ducted Fume Hood
Ducted fume hood in seven widths from 18 to 70 inches, supplied either as the bare hood for connection to an existing exhaust system (SS-218-E to SS-370-E) or with a matched inline fan on the 24 to 70 inch widths (SS-324-E-EF to SS-370-E-EF). Because it exhausts to atmosphere rather than recirculating, there is no filter media to match to the chemistry – but ductwork, termination and make-up air have to be designed into the installation.
Deluxe Ductless Fume Hood - Front Controls w/ Variable speed controller & HC - UL Listed
Deluxe-series ductless fume hood with front-mounted controls and a variable-speed blower controller, in five widths from 30 to 70 inches (SS-330-DCH2 through SS-370-DCH2). It is built on the 300-series chassis, so it takes Model 300 HEPA, activated-carbon and acid-gas cartridges, ordered separately. Ductless operation returns filtered air to the room, which makes filter selection the critical specification decision rather than an afterthought.
Compact Benchtop Air Filtration System
Benchtop ductless air filtration enclosure in three chassis sizes – Model 200, Model 225 and Model 300 – each listed with or without a lid, plus a revised lidded Model 300 (SS-300-WSL2). It takes the same replaceable Model 200 and Model 300 cartridges as the rest of this hood range: HEPA rated up to 99.97% efficient on particles down to 0.3 microns, heavy-duty granular activated carbon, or an acid-gas blend.
