The invention relates to a containment enclosure comprising two compartments (21, 22) and a sealing system between the two compartments. The sealing system (16; 23, 30) comprises a door (23) having two opposite faces (23a, 23b). The door comprises a transfer support (30) on one of its faces. According to the invention, the door allows two closed positions distinct from one another, in which positions the door forms a gastight interface between the two compartments.

The invention provides a system for preventing fluid exchange between the interior and exterior of containment enclosures such as process-, hazard-, and research-enclosure systems generally, gloveboxes, containment systems, isolation systems, confinement systems, cleanrooms, negative air systems, and positive air system areas while simultaneously providing material transfer into and out of the enclosures. The invention also provides a method for transporting material into or out of a containment structure.

The handling device for cases and boxes contained in the cases, comprising a housing intended to receive a case, said housing being closed at a first longitudinal end and open at a second longitudinal end, a holding device (14) mounted at the level of the second end of the housing, the latter comprising two clamping jaws, said clamping jaws applying a clamping force to the case (E), an actuator for opening and closing said jaws, two stop jaws (36, 38), each (36, 38) being supported by a clamping jaw and being articulated in a free manner about and relative to the clamping jaw, springs (40) connecting said stop jaws (36, 38), such that opening of the clamping jaws causes opening of the stop jaws (36, 38) and the stop jaws (36, 38) can be opened independently of the clamping jaws.
