Whitley M135 HEPA Workstation
The M135 HEPA is a spacious microaerobic chamber characterized by its significant height, width, and depth. This system incorporates four gases with integrated sensors for oxygen, carbon dioxide, and hydrogen. This feature empowers users to configure exact gas compositions, making it an ideal choice for controlling samples within a sustainable and adaptable atmosphere.
The Whitley M Range of workstations offers the flexibility to establish anoxic/anaerobic, microaerobic, or hypoxic environments as needed, all without requiring modifications to the incoming gas supply.
Description
Microaerophilic Workstation – Whitley M135 HEPA Workstation
The M135 HEPA is a spacious Microaerophilic Workstation (chamber) with dimensions in height, width, and depth. It features a 4-gas system that includes integrated sensors for oxygen, carbon dioxide, and hydrogen. This feature enables users to customize gas concentrations accurately, making it ideal for handling samples in an environmentally sustainable and adaptable setting. Additionally, the Whitley M Range workstations offer the capability to establish anoxic/anaerobic, microaerobic, or hypoxic environments without requiring modifications to the incoming gas supply, providing convenience and flexibility for users.
The Whitley M Range Microaerophilic Workstation (chamber) were initially created for researching and isolating microaerophilic organisms like Campylobacter spp, Helicobacter pylori, and other similarly delicate microorganisms. Thanks to their versatile atmospheric control capabilities (ranging from 0% to 20% oxygen), these systems are now widely employed in both microbiology and cell culture applications. Similar to our other microaerobic and anaerobic workstations, the Whitley M35 workstation can be equipped with the Whitley Automatic Humidification System. This system is particularly advantageous for cultivating microaerophilic bacteria such as Campylobacter spp. Our in-house laboratory tests have demonstrated that Campylobacter colonies exhibit enhanced growth and display more typical morphology when incubated in an atmosphere with increased humidity (at least 75% RH).
The M135 HEPA boasts an internal volume of 900 liters, providing ample space for a diverse range of equipment, including imaging devices, microscopes, plate readers, spiral platers, and more. Notably, it features the exclusive Whitley Internal HEPA Filtration System, through which the entire chamber’s atmosphere is continuously filtered hundreds of times per hour. This rapid filtration process effectively maintains a clean and purified environment within the chamber.
The spacious internal height of the M135 HEPA facilitates convenient pipetting, allowing you to conduct your work without the need to disturb your samples’ environmental conditions. This versatile chamber serves both as a working and incubation space, ensuring seamless workflow.
With its rapid 16-liter airlock, you can perform tasks without the risk of compromising the chamber’s conditions, and it’s additionally flushed with nitrogen, providing cost-saving benefits.
DWS also offers two optional cooling methods for this workstation. The Refrigeration System is beneficial when working with organisms requiring low-temperature incubation, while the Heat Removal System maintains ambient temperatures consistently.
To tailor this workstation to your specific needs, a variety of optional accessories are available, including data logging and cable glands, ensuring it aligns perfectly with your requirements.

Overview
Whitley M Range Workstations were originally designed for the study and isolation of microaerophilic organisms such as Campylobacter spp, Helicobacter pylori and other similarly fastidious organisms. However, due to the flexibility of the atmospheric control (from 0% to 20% oxygen), these systems are widely used for both microbiology and cell culture applications. As with our other microaerobic and anaerobic workstations, the Whitley M35 can be specified with the Whitley Automatic Humidification System. This system is especially beneficial in the cultivation of microaerophilic bacteria such as Campylobacter spp. Our own laboratory tests have indicated that Campylobacter colonies grow larger and exhibit more typical morphology when incubated in an atmosphere with elevated humidity (at least 75% RH).The M155 HEPA has an internal volume of 900 litres and can accommodate a variety of items of equipment such as imaging devices, microscopes, plate readers, spiral platers, etc. It comes complete with the unique Whitley Internal HEPA Filtration System. All the atmosphere passes through the filter hundreds of times an hour, which ensures the chamber environment is cleaned quickly.
The generous internal height facilitates easy pipetting. All your work can be performed without removing your samples from the set environmental conditions and the entire chamber can be used as both working and incubation space.
With a rapid 16 litre airlock, there is no risk of compromising conditions inside the chamber (and it’s flushed with nitrogen as an additional cost saving).
DWS also offers two optional cooling methods for this workstation. A Refrigeration System could be useful if you are working with organisms that need low temperature incubation. Alternatively, the Heat Removal System allows the workstation to maintain ambient temperatures at all times.
A range of optional accessories, such as data logging and cable glands are available to tailor this workstation to your particular requirements.
- Two patented oval ports enable you to work comfortably, gloved or bare handed.
- Rather than use off-the-shelf HEPA filters, DWS has worked with one of the world’s leading filter manufacturers to develop a filter specifically tailored to suit this workstation.
- Levels of atmospheric cleanliness inside the workstation exceeds the requirements of ISO 14644 Class 3 (equivalent to Class 1 of the US Fed Std 209E Cleanroom Standards and exceeds the particle counts attained at rest’ (without an operator) of Grade A as set out in the GMP Guidelines). We can provide test results confirming particulate levels inside the workstation.
- Fitted with a fan that circulates the internal atmosphere continuously – contributing to even temperature distribution and ensuring any internal particulate will be in motion.
- A removable front enables the transfer of larger batches of samples or pieces of equipment for use inside the chamber.
- Colour, touch screen control panel for ease of use and for visual display of parameters such as temperature, humidity and airlock cycle status.
- Other options to tailor the workstation to your requirements include: single sample entry system; cable glands; shelves and data logging.
