Superior Construction and Chemical ResistanceDesigned with a double-walled body using powder-coated mild steel or GI sheet, this fume hood ensures long-term durability. The internal lining and worktop-offered in granite or epoxy resin-are highly chemical resistant, protecting users and equipment from harsh reagents. The structure can endure temperatures up to 120C, making it ideal for a wide range of laboratory applications.
Efficient Airflow and Quiet OperationFeaturing an aerodynamic baffle system and included centrifugal blower, this fume hood achieves smooth airflow and effective contaminant removal. Face velocities range from 0.4 to 0.7 m/s, and noise levels remain below 65 dB, creating a comfortable workspace. Variable sash operation and a manual or automatic sash option add convenience and energy efficiency.
Easy Operation and Enhanced SafetyThe vertical sliding, counterbalance sash is made from toughened glass to provide visibility and protection. Integrated service fittings for gas, water, and air, as well as a polypropylene sink with tap, support a variety of laboratory processes. The built-in storage cabinet and optional accessories-such as a carbon filter, UV lamp, and additional sockets-further promote safety and organization.
FAQ's of Fume hood:
Q: How does the fume hood's airflow system operate and what types are available?
A: The fume hood is equipped with either horizontal or vertical airflow, using an aerodynamic baffle system to ensure smooth and effective removal of hazardous fumes. The included centrifugal blower maintains variable face velocities between 0.4 - 0.7 m/s, supporting a clean and safe laboratory environment.
Q: What materials are used for the worktop and why are they beneficial?
A: You can choose between granite or epoxy resin worktops, both offering strong chemical resistance and high durability. These materials are ideal for laboratories conducting frequent chemical handling, as they protect against spills, scratches, and moderate heat exposure up to 120C.
Q: When should I use the manual versus automatic sash control option?
A: Manual sash controls are suited for general daily use and provide direct control over sash position, while automatic options are recommended for laboratories aiming to optimize energy efficiency and enhance operator safety, especially in high-volume or multi-user settings.
Q: Where can this fume hood be installed and what applications does it support?
A: This ducted fume hood is designed for installation in chemical laboratories, research institutions, and pharmaceutical companies. Its robust build and chemical-resistant features make it suitable for processes involving hazardous substances, ensuring user safety across diverse scientific fields.
Q: What is the procedure for routine maintenance and cleaning?
A: Routine maintenance involves regularly inspecting the airflow (using the analog flow meter), cleaning the worktop with suitable solvents, checking the chemical-resistant linings, and ensuring the centrifugal blower and lighting function properly. It is also important to periodically clean or replace optional carbon filters and check service fittings and valves for proper operation.
Q: How does the built-in storage and accessory options enhance user experience?
A: The integrated base storage cabinet allows safe and convenient storage of chemicals and lab tools, while optional accessories such as the UV lamp, carbon filter, and additional power sockets expand the utility and safety of the workstation, adapting the hood for varied experimental needs.
