Fume Hood

Fume Hood is an enclosure which is used to remove fumes and air borne particles at the contamination source. It is a kind of fume ventilation system which prime work is to remove smoke, dust mist and chemical fumes and restrict their entry into laboratory environment. A laboratory fume hood comprises of metallic sheet enclosure, steel or marble stone work bench, service fixture and electrical points. For fume exhaust, heavy duty blowers are fitted and remotely connected to the duct. Chemical fume hood, fume cupboard and fume closet are similar names of fume hood.

Fume Hood Applications

The core application of a fume hood is fume removal also minimizing nuisance odors. It is used in laboratory where some important tasks are preformed such as solvent mixing, soldering and working with volatile organics, powder and flammable chemicals, different types of acids and low odor thresholds etc. and all these tasks generate hazardous fumes that are harmful not only environment but also for operator and surrounding people. In this case a fume hood becomes important which sucks fumes and throws outside the working environment to maintain acceptable air quality aiming for enhancing safety of personnel as well as laboratory environment.

We are fume hood manufacturers in India. Our fume hood systems meet ASHRAE standards and can withstand any type of acid exposure.
