NOI Techpark

Rooms for changing research groups

The idea behind the Nature of Innovation (NOI) Techpark is to create a campus where different disciplines and research areas come together and benefit from each other's way of working and thinking. This is why the open space concept has been at the forefront of laboratory planning right from the start. Researchers are always working on different projects at the same time, coming together to form new research groups and needing space for new, different, larger equipment and connections. Tables must be equipped for all weight classes, but the media supply must also be guaranteed everywhere.

Saving energy with Secuflow technology

Safety and energy efficiency were important aspects when equipping the laboratories - partly because climate phenomena are to be simulated and analysed here and the effects of humans on the earth's ecosystem are to be investigated.

All fume cupboards at the Techpark in Bolzano are therefore equipped with Secuflow technology. With this fume cupboard technology, support jet air is directed from the aerodynamically shaped inlet profiles into the inside of the fume cupboard: This prevents turbulence and ideally stabilises the inflow. The flow-optimised exhaust air distribution in the fume cupboard makes it possible to further reduce the exhaust air volume of the fume cupboards - with absolutely safe operation.

Safety in the laboratory

The Secuflow also increases safety in the laboratory. In many situations, it is necessary to intervene in test set-ups or processes inside the fume cupboard and when opening the sash, for example, turbulence occurs that can generate backflows from inside the fume cupboard. However, instead of increasing the exhaust air volume, Secuflow technology achieves excellent retention values and reliably protects the people working at the fume cupboard.
