BSL-3 Laboratory Design Resource
This guide discusses the ventilation requirements that are unique to biosafety level 3 (BSL-3) laboratories and provides recommendations for controlling airflow in these highly-specialized environments. It includes an overview of the four biosafety levels in biocontainment labs and the types of biosafety cabinets used there, along with a compilation of relevant HVAC standards and guidelines for BSL-3 facilities.

Healthcare Sourcebook
This sourcebook contains information specific to the unique requirements of the healthcare industry, including descriptions of airflow control approaches for isolation rooms, operating rooms, patient rooms, and other areas in these critical care facilities. Forward-looking design principles are also discussed so both engineer and owner can understand the most cost-effective methods for achieving optimal use of ventilation resources.

Vivarium Sourcebook
An easy-to-understand reference for HVAC issues in animal laboratories with a handy compilation of relevant standards and guidelines. Contains a section on ventilating rodent holding rooms, which includes details on directly connecting ventilated cage racks to building ventilation systems.

Laboratory Sourcebook
The fourth edition of the Laboratory Sourcebook contains updated Celeris product information. It presents an overview of design issues critical to controlling airflow in laboratory environments, including system response time, accuracy, and pressure independence. It also discusses how applying diversity to laboratory design can save energy and permit downsizing of mechanical systems.

Laboratory Standards & Guidelines
A compilation of excerpts from many of the applicable laboratory standards and guidelines used within the industry today. The intent of this piece is to provide the owner, engineer, architect, or laboratory user an overview of those standards and/or guidelines that are applicable to the design and/or use of today's laboratory. Individuals should consult all relevant local, state, and federal building codes to define what applicable standards and guidelines from this piece might pertain to a particular facility.

What is the true cost of static pressure?
Compares the static pressure requirements of terminal boxes with venturi valves. Also stresses that while terminal boxes can maintain lower static pressure on paper, the cost savings from lower static pressure is minimal and far outweighed by the energy savings from the superior turndown of the Phoenix Controls venturi valve.

HVAC Considerations for Gaseous Decontamination of Laboratory Spaces using Hydrogen Peroxide Vapor (HPV)
Examines the use of hydrogen peroxide vapor (HPV) as a biodecontamination agent and the effects of ventilation system design on its efficacy as a decontaminant.

Factors Affecting the Performance of Airflow Measurement Devices in Critical Applications
Explains the differences between measuring and metering airflow in critical applications. Also provides information on the factors that should be considered when selecting ventilation controls for laboratories, such as speed of response, accuracy, stability, maintenance, installation issues, and balancing.

Cage Rack Ventilation Options for Laboratory Animal Facilities
A white paper describing methods for ventilating cage racks in animal labs. It details four different airflow control approaches for this type of application, from the simplest to the most complex and lists the advantages and disadvantages of each. Mechanical system designers and facility managers for laboratory animal facilities should find this document useful in making comparisons and weighing options.
