Abstract From the Canadian patent

An apparatus and method for space pressure control in high containment laboratories. The system comprises a volumetric air flow controller and a differential pressure controller. The differential pressure controller couples to the volumetric air flow controller. To establish negative space pressurization in the laboratory the differential pressure controller generates a variable offset signal for volumetric operation. In response to the offset signal the volumetric, air controller controls the ducted supply air to the laboratory at a set shortfall compared to the ducted exhaust air flow. The shortfall of ducted supply air creates a negative pressure which is also sensed by the differential …

Why it's free to use

  • Filed February 11, 1993 and granted March 12, 2002. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended February 11, 2013.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by February 11, 2015.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
