Ergonomically designed workplace for safe and efficient work.

 

Sophisticated design with a wide range of instrument modules and accessories.

 

The concept of two active zones for a clear layout of the workplace.

The VarioLab+ system makes it possible to create a workplace that meets current and future needs.

 

The concept of superstructures with modules makes it possible to easily add additional devices and accessories.

 

A wide range of dimensions, the workplace can thus be perfectly adapted to needs and spatial possibilities.

The high quality of the materials used and first-class craftsmanship ensure long-term trouble-free operation.

System description - sales arguments

Two work zones

The VarioLab+ system has two separate active zones: 

The working zone, which consists of a free table top and the measuring and power supply zone, which is located in the instrument superstructure.

Modularity and extensibility

The VarioLab + system allows a completely individual selection and assembly of devices. From the very design, the future expansion of the workplace with new components is planned , which will enable the unlimited solution of new tasks.

VL_IL_170321-0036_web.jpg

Ergonomics and comfort at work

Good visibility of all devices, easy operation of control elements and logical arrangement according to the most frequent work tasks are the main features of care for the comfort of the workplace of the VarioLab+ system.

Safetyabove all 

Yellow illuminated TOTAL STOP button

Circuit breaker and circuit breaker

If it is necessary to quickly shut down the workplace, the yellow-illuminated ring of the TOTAL STOP button helps to quickly orient the operator and thus to intervene in time. A seemingly small thing that can mean saving from electric shock in the worst case. 

VL_4.png

Additional security features 

The standard safety features are complemented by a safety switch that monitors the opening of the superstructure lid and thus prevents the device from turning on and potential electric shock. This safety violation is also signaled by an orange symbol on the superstructure power supply module marked M08 (single-phase power supply) or M32 (three-phase superstructure power supply). 

The basic safety elements of the tables are a 10 A or 16 A circuit breaker with tripping characteristic "C" and a current protector with a differential current of 30 mA. In the case of a single-phase power supply, a combined device is used, which includes a circuit breaker and a current protector at the same time. 

VL_5.png

Uncompromising control in production 

Inspection of all manufactured parts of the VarioLab+ tables is present at every important stage of production. It goes without saying that the final testing and burning of all modules and devices in the superstructures is done.

Feedback from customers

The VarioLab+ tables were created on the basis of customer requests in 2000. Since then, we have been constantly receiving input from our customers and in many cases projecting them into new elements of the VarioLab+ tables and their innovations. So it's important to listen to customers and use that feedback to inspire our developers. This information has an irreplaceable role in retention, i.e. repeated communication with customers who already use VarioLab+ tables.

Modularity 

The open modular concept enables further expansion of the workplace according to customer requirements. All elements of the VarioLab+ system are designed to be backwards compatible. Individual modules and devices in the instrument cluster can be supplemented and changed. The design of the table allows you to change the height of the worktop, extensions and shelves. Modularity is an important element of investment evaluation for the customer.

Construction of VarioLab + tables

Instrument superstructures VarioLab+

Instrument superstructures form two basic groups, suspended on standing legs or placed on a table top. Both of these types can be one-sided or double-sided, which are suitable for creating island workplaces.

The dimensions of the superstructures are: depth 440 mm (880 mm for double-sided superstructures), height 240 mm and width 800 - 2000 mm.

VarioLab+ with suspended superstructure and shelf

VL_IL_170321-0036_web.jpg

The most common and also the most advantageous design in terms of ergonomics and the use of the work surface of the table.

In the case of school classrooms, it is very convenient to use the "island arrangement", which means that the tables form a complete group, preferably in the middle of the room as a double-sided workplace, or one-sided along the walls of the room. 

Limitations:

if the desks are placed in the classroom in rows behind each other, the students have a difficult view of the teacher and the blackboard. At the same time, the teacher does not have an immediate overview of the students' activities. In this case, it is advisable to use computers on tables and display maximum information on monitors.

VarioLab+ with a superstructure placed on the table top

190513-DMT_VL-0060_web.jpg

The second possible location of instrument superstructures.We prefer this design in the case of desks in school classrooms where you need to see the blackboard or the teacher needs to be in visual contact with the students. The extension of the desks does not obstruct the view, as in a classically arranged classroom.

Disadvantage:

The extension takes up a significant part of the depth of the table. In such a classroom, we recommend using a table top with a depth of 900 mm (the standard is 800 mm). This needs to be solved especially in classrooms where there is combined teaching and not only work with desk equipment.

The depth of the free surface is 360 mm for a standard plate, or 460 mm for a 900 mm deep plate. 

VarioLab+ with extension on the table top and storage space

190627-DMT_RE-0004_web.jpg

Adapted table solution with a superstructure on the table top. It combines the advantage of the pupils direct view of the teacher and the blackboard, while at the same time the base allows at least partial use of the table area under the instrument superstructure. Pupils can, for example, store books, notebooks or insert a laptop here.

Disadvantage:

this storage space is very difficult for the teacher to control, students can store almost anything here quite undisturbed, including various illegal aids, and after the end of the lesson there can be various messes in this space. In any case, this is a kind of compromise solution. But in general, it is best to offer and if possible   look for a way to place a suspended device superstructure in the room.

Standing legs VarioLab + - possible versions

Standing legs form another important part of the construction of the VarioLab + table.

The following basic variants are available:

Single and double legs with an "L" shaped foot and heavy-duty legs. All VarioLab + legs allow so-called CHAINING. That is, the creation of workplaces where neighboring workplaces use one common leg. This saves space and costs. It is also a good argument for choosing our solution. Chaining not only saves money, but also significantly increases the rigidity and stability of the workplace as a whole.

Simple standing legs

SNJ-0675.png

Simple standing legs are suitable for most workplace applications that are designed to be single-sided, these legs CANNOT be used in conjunction with a double-sided superstructure.

They are needed to assemble one free-standing table only two legs.

Simple legs are marked:

SNJ-xxxx where "xxxx" stands for height.

Simple standing legs are supplied in dimensions: 675, 1200, 1600 and 2000 mm

Marking example: a leg with a height of 1600 mm will be marked SNJ-1600

Double standing legs

SND-0675.png

The double standing legs are primarily intended for assembling workplaces with double-sided instrument superstructures. But they can also be used with two back-to-back simple superstructures.

They are needed to build one self-standing two-sided workplace only two legs.

Double legs are marked:

SND-xxxx, where "xxxx" is height.

The double standing legs are supplied in the following dimensions: 675, 1200, 1600 and 2000 mm

Marking example: a leg with a height of 1200 mm will be labeled SND-1200

Heavy duty legs

SNP-0675.png

Heavy-duty legs are designed for workplaces where heavy equipment (up to 350 kg) is expected to be placed, or where the customer requires high stability for placing precise measuring devices.

Heavy-duty legs are combined with the appropriate types of table tops.

To build one freestanding heavy duty table you need to use four legs. 

The load-bearing legs are marked:

SNP-xxxx where "xxxx" stands for height.

Load-bearing standing legs are supplied in the following dimensions: 675, 1200, 1600 and 2000 mm

Marking example: a leg with a height of 675 mm will be marked SNP-0675

Possibilities of cost rationalization and space savings in the implementation of VarioLab + table equipment

VarioLab + table constructions are based on a well-thought-out system of combining standing legs and instrument superstructures. The basic idea is that the tables can be CHAINED, ie connecting adjacent tables to each other using one common standing leg. This system not only ensures considerable cost and space savings, but also aesthetically fills the space of the workplace or classroom. The high rigidity of the whole assembly is also not negligible. These advantages can be further enhanced by the creation of an "ISLAND" workplace with the use of double standing legs and double-sided instrument superstructures.

VarioLab+ table tops and shelves

Table tops are an obvious and important part of VarioLab+ tables. They are manufactured from 25 mm thick laminate as standard. The depth of the table top is 800 mm and the shelf 400 mm as standard. Part of the table tops is always a beam for fixing the table top to the standing legs.

An important advantage is that table tops, as well as shelves and device superstructures, can also be supplied in ESD - antistatic design. It is thus possible to create a workplace that is suitable for working with components sensitive to static charge. In this case, the letter "A" is used in the designation of the table top or shelf.

Straight table top

DSP-1608.png

Straight tops are the most common variant, the designation "straight" means that all sides of the table top are straight, and the assembled table thus has "attached" legs on the sides of the table top, so that they protrude to the sides outside the table top. This is a standard version of the step plate. 

Straight table tops are marked:

DSP-xxxx, where "xxxx" stands for height.

The boards are supplied in the following dimensions: 800, 1000, 1200, 1400, 1500, 1600, 1800 and 2000 mm

Marking example: the straight table top, 1600 mm wide will be marked DSP-1600

Table top with cutouts

DSP-1608-V.png

With a table top with cutouts, one half of the leg is embedded in the top. They are suitable where a compact area of linked tables without gaps is required.

Important! Cut-out boards are WIDER than straight boards. The working surface is extended, but the distance between the legs is the same as with straight boards!

Table tops with cutouts are marked:

DSP-xxxx-V where "xxxx" stands for height.

The boards are supplied in the following dimensions: 800, 1000, 1200, 1400, 1500, 1600, 1800 and 2000 mm

Marking example: the 1800 mm wide cutout table top will be marked

DSP-1800-V

Table top with channel

DSP-1608-KV.png

Table tops with cable channel at the back. This channel can be supplemented with a hinged lid and is used to store the cabling. Instead of a channel with a hinged lid, a channel with electrical modules, similar to those used in instrument superstructures, can be used. 

Table tops with a channel are marked:

DSP-xxxx-V, or DSP-xxxx-KV, where "xxxx" means the height.

The boards are supplied in the following dimensions: 800, 1000, 1200, 1400, 1500, 1600, 1800 and 2000 mm

Marking example: the table top with cutouts and a channel with a width of 1600 mm will be marked DSP-1600-KV

Additional equipment and expansion of the VarioLab+ tables

The above information is used to obtain basic knowledge about the options of the VarioLab+ laboratory furniture system, tables can be supplemented with corner assemblies, superstructures can be multi-storey, VarioLab+ tables are complemented by a wide range of accessories and cabinets, cupboards, drawer containers, holders.
