Proper Airflow, Safe Workflow
Good ventilation is a vital feature of any thriving laboratory. Chemicals and biosamples can have a strong and immediate effect on the surrounding air, creating vapors and fumes which lead to hazardous conditions. To maintain a safe and clean environment for lab workers, it’s important to invest in a reliable ventilation system.

How to choose the right blower
To choose the right blower for a fume hood application, several factors should be considered, including the size of the hood, the types of chemicals being used, and the air flow rate required to adequately remove fumes and vapors. If you have questions about finding the right blower for your needs in the laboratory, schedule a consultation with us so we can help you find the perfect fan for your specific application.

Laboratory Fume Hood
What is a fume hood?
A fume hood is a type of enclosure that is used in laboratories to control exposure to hazardous substances or fumes. It consists of a ventilated chamber with a front opening that allows the user to work with materials inside while keeping the surrounding environment safe.
Why is exhausting air out of a fume hood important?
Proper ventilation of your fume hood is necessary to remove hazardous fumes or vapors from the laboratory environment. By directing the air through a ventilation system and releasing it outside the building, the fumes are effectively removed, reducing the risk of inhalation and chemical exposure for lab personnel.
How does a fume hood protect lab users?
A fume hood protects lab users by creating a barrier between them and the hazardous materials they are working with. The air flow from the hood ensures that any hazardous substances or vapors are immediately drawn away from the user and exhausted through the ventilation system, reducing the risk of inhalation and chemical exposure.
Flow Regulation Options
