Abstract: A laboratory station has a sink area and a work area separated by a shield. A computer monitor station is present in the work area having a first and second position. In the first position, the computer monitor is located below the top surface of the laboratory table top. In the second position at least a portion of the computer monitor is located above the table top. The shield is preferably transparent to allow vision there through while preventing water from leaving the sink area and potentially entering the work area.

Abstract: A laboratory faucet has a base, a spout and a vacuum breaker wherein at least a portion of the vacuum breaker is cast within an upper portion of the spout. The upper portion of the spout assists in protecting the vacuum breaker from vandalistic acts. Additionally, the base of the faucet is advantageously designed to provide access to the valve operators to allow use of the valve operators at a location to minimize drippage from the operator's hands onto a counter top. Furthermore, the base may be configured with a gas supply controlled by valves.
