Any equipment could pose some issues during its working and the Fume Hood is not an exception. Let us discuss some common complaints related to the working of a fume hood and ways to resolve them.
You have received a communication from the manufacturer that the ordered fume hood(s) is ready for dispatch. This is just about the time to take a look at the prerequisites for installation. Proper
Routinely, scientists and researchers work in an environment that contains airborne chemical contaminants. The sources of these contaminants could be chemical powders, hazardous chemicals, odors,
A fume hood is essentially a safety device. It protects the user from hazardous airborne chemical contaminants. It is therefore important that fume hood performs this primary function without fail,
While selecting a fume hood the most obvious parameter that needs attention is the size and overall dimensions. Lab space availability and features, Type(s) of intended experimentation, Equipment
A fume hood needs adequate airflow to remove, contain and safely discharge airborne chemical contaminants. The fume hood is essentially air handling equipment. It doesn’t work in isolation but
Fume Hood by itself keeps the user and the lab environment safe by reducing airborne contaminant hazards. However, there are additional accessories available to enhance the safety and convenience of
A fume hood works by drawing the air past the user, into the fume hood, fumes contained inside as the experiment is on-going, and exhausting the contaminated air safely outside the facility.
In these challenging times that the world is facing, it is very important to know about the safety devices that we use in our laboratories. Fume Hoods and Bio Safety Cabinets are two such equipment
A fume hood needs adequate airflow to remove, contain and safely discharge airborne chemical contaminants. It is therefore important to ensure adequate airflow. An Air Flow Monitor (AFM) is an
