Laboratory fume hoods

Bench-top, floor-mounted and ductless hoods from 1000 to 1800 mm wide, with the liner, sash and blower matched to your chemicals.

Overview

What decides the size and the airflow

A fume hood is a safety device first and a piece of furniture second. We match the liner, sash and airflow to what you handle, and we ship the blower, duct and control panel together so nothing is missing on site.

  • Bench-top, floor-mounted and walk-in (floor standing) types
  • Liners in PP, phenolic resin or stainless steel 304/316
  • 6 mm tempered glass sash with counterweight or cable drive
  • Ducted to your route, or ductless with carbon filtration
  • PP centrifugal blower with optional VFD speed control
  • Face velocity and containment tested before shipment on request

Questions

Hood questions

Ducted or ductless — which should we choose?

Ductless only suits low-volume, low-hazard work where a duct route is impossible, and filters must be changed on schedule. For acids, solvents in volume, or perchloric work, specify ducted. Tell us the chemicals and we will say which one is safe.

Do you provide the ductwork and installation?

We supply the hood, blower, flexible duct and fittings as a package, sized to the hood. Rigid duct runs are normally built locally to our drawing, which keeps freight cost down.

Can the hood be certified?

We can arrange face-velocity and containment testing before shipment and supply the report. On-site certification to EN 14175 or ASHRAE 110 is carried out by a local certifier after installation.
