Featuring DuoZone™ Technology
	DuoZone™ Technology – two zones of differential pressure for simultaneous containment and protection
	DigiFlow™ microprocessor monitoring and control for security and cost-effectiveness

Sensors that continuously monitor the system’s environments;

Alarms that provide alarm signals when preset alarm limits are exceeded;

Controls that maintain the system’s environments at selected set points of airflow and system pressure, with additional options for controlling temperature, humidity and lighting.

DuoZone™ Control Technology. Each DigiFlow™ can simultaneously monitor and control up to three zones. In a regular SmartRack™, only one zone is controlled and is occupied.

DuoZone™ refers to applications where DigiFlow™ is used to independently control two zones of differential pressure but where only one zone is animal-occupied and the other is a surrounding zone. DuoZone™ can thus be used to provide simultaneous containment (negative pressure) and protection (positive pressure) or to provide a higher level of containment (two negative pressure zones) compared with a regular SmartRack™.

Typical DuoZone™ applications include a MiniRoom™ with a SmartRack™, a MiniSmart™ within a MiniCabinet™ or a Row Level Containment Rack (RowZone™).

In these DuoZone™ applications the occupied zone (i.e. cages on a SmartRack™ or a MiniSmart™) can be controlled at either positive or negative pressure whilst the surrounding zone can simultaneously be controlled at either positive or negative pressure. In addition to providing the benefits of both positive and negative pressure adjacent zones, this technology also allows you to have two levels of biocontainment (two negative pressure zones) for added safety, e.g. for BSL3+ applications.

At the same time as the pressure regimes of the occupied and surrounding zones are being monitored and controlled by DigiFlow™, the air flow to the occupied zone is also being monitored and controlled.

MultiZone™ refers to a situation where more than one animal-occupied zone (up to a maximum of three) is controlled. For example, in a SmartRack™ with a single BioScreen™, two animal-occupied zones are being controlled.

Typical MultiZone™ applications include a SmartRack™ with one or two BioScreen™ cages, or two SmartRacks™ with one BioScreen™, or two or three MiniRooms™.

BioZoneGlobal’s Environmental Monitoring Option provides continuous monitoring and control of temperature, relative humidity as well as controlling lighting and monitoring ammonia levels in the exhaust air flow. Alarms can be set to show high and low levels of temperature and relative humidity and to show high levels of ammonia.

The status of the DigiFlow™ System is displayed on the DigiFlow™ TouchScreen and by two indicator lights adjacent to the TouchScreen. The green indicator light shows the system is operating. The red indicator light indicates that there is, or has been, an alarm condition.

The TouchScreen display has a ScreenSaver feature which, if activated, will result in the display going blank after a preset number of minutes. If the TouchScreen is in ScreenSaver mode, simply touch the screen until the display comes on.
