Product Description
Epoxy-coated steel fume hoods by Kalstein are essential for any modern laboratory, offering not only durability but also safety features that are critical for handling hazardous chemicals. The external dimensions vary across different models, starting from the compact YR05813 with dimensions of 800*650*1900 mm to the larger YR05816 at 1500*650*1900 mm, ensuring that there’s an option suitable for every laboratory size and requirement.
These fume hoods are designed with an internal workspace that ensures optimal comfort and safety for laboratory personnel. The internal sizes range from 600*600*750 mm to 1300*600*750 mm, providing ample working space. The work surface height is standardized at 800 mm across all models, facilitating ergonomic access to the workspace.
The product features a max window opening of 750 mm, and the air velocity maintains between 0.4-0.6 m/s, ensuring efficient exhaust and maintaining laboratory air quality. The integral blower is speed adjustable, optimizing airflow as needed, while noise levels are kept at or below 60dB for a quieter working environment. The 10W LED lamp ensures the workspace is well-lit for precise work.
Built using 1.2mm thick cold-rolled steel coated with epoxy resin powder, the fume hood’s main body offers resilience and longevity. Inside, 5mm thick lining materials resist strong acids and alkalies, while the work table, made of 12.7mm thick phenolic resin, is also chemical-resistant.
