Rigid Containment Isolator

Rheo Rigid Isolators provide safe environments for potent and/or hazardous material handling. Our isolator systems are built to order for your application needs.

 

Safety:  Position drums directly in front of the operator for optimized dispensing ergonomics. The isolator can be nitrogen inerted for hazardous material handling and paired with extraction for potent material handling, achieving containment levels of less than 50 ng/m3.

Efficiency:  Throughput is maximized by use of efficient material entry and exit methods. Cleaning time is minimized by use of a CIP sequence  and cleanable chamber design.

Reliability:  Rheo has developed vast process experience in the Rigid Isolator product line and offers full testing validation services to ensure reliable performance.

Controlled Environment

The Rigid Isolator can be automated to monitor and maintain a safe operating environment. The operating conditions are customized to a specific application and are automatically adjusted  based on what mode the glovebox is in (these set-points are controllable even with vacuum transfer applications). A touch-screen HMI is used to control the operating mode and to display the system conditions or give user prompts.
