System 4
System 4 is designed for wet laboratories with manual operations requiring a continuous work surface. The fixed benching is supported on a metal frame.
Flexibility in the location of knee space, drawers and cupboards is provided by a range of movable modular underbench storage units.
Reagent shelving modules incorporating a horizontal services duct to reticulate power, data, telephone, gases and water can be mounted on the bench as required. Waste piping is installed below sink bowl level supported on metal legs.
System 4 is not ideal for flexibility in accommodating large bench mounted equipment. For an updated version of above bench horizontal services ducts please refer to System 10.
