Each model presents varied dimensions to accommodate different space requirements, with external sizes ranging from 800 mm to 1500 mm in width, all maintaining a depth of 650 mm and a height of 1900 mm.

Internally, the fume hoods have space-efficient designs, with widths spanning from 600 mm to 1300 mm, facilitating a comfortable working environment. The work surface is set at a standard height of 800 mm, providing an ergonomic experience. Crafted with robust materials, the main body is constructed from 1.2mm thick cold-rolled steel coated in durable epoxy resin powder, ensuring long-lasting resistance against chemical exposure.

The fume hood is equipped with a front window made from 5mm toughened glass, allowing manual adjustment for user convenience. With an air velocity/exhaust air volume ranging from 0.4-0.6 m/s and 800-1000 m³/h respectively, the hood ensures efficient ventilation, maintaining noise levels at or below 60 dB. Integral to its design, the built-in axial flow blower features adjustable speed settings to suit various operational needs.

Frequently Asked Questions

What materials are used in constructing the fume hood?

The fume hood is primarily constructed from 1.2mm thick cold-rolled steel with an epoxy resin powder coating. The inner sides are made from 5mm thick compact material resistant to strong acids and alkalis, and the work table is crafted from chemical-resistant phenolic resin.

Is the fume hood easy to install and maintain?

Yes, the fume hood is designed for ease of installation and maintenance. Its simple design allows for straightforward assembly, and its durable construction reduces the frequency of maintenance checks.

What safety features are included in the fume hood?

The fume hood includes a manual front window made of toughened glass for safe operation, and an efficient exhaust system to ensure optimal air quality. Additionally, it operates at a noise level under 60 dB, maintaining a conducive environment.

Advantages and Disadvantages

Advantages: The fume hood’s robust design ensures long-term durability and reliability, crucial for any laboratory environment. Its adjustable blower speed and the high-quality airflow management system ensure efficient removal of hazardous fumes. The ergonomic design, paired with high-grade materials resistant to chemicals, makes it a valuable addition to any lab. Versatile optional accessories further enhance its adaptability to specific lab needs.

Disadvantages: The initial purchase cost may be an investment beyond budget constraints for some smaller labs. Space requirements need to be considered, especially when opting for larger models, which might not fit all lab environments. Additionally, the need for electricity could be a downside if your lab faces power instability issues.

Use of the Product in the Field

The Epoxy Coated Steel Laboratory Fume Hood is integral in settings where chemical handling is routine, such as in analytical labs, chemical processing plants, and educational institutions. Its key role is in providing a safe environment by effectively capturing and extracting hazardous vapors and fumes generated during experiments. The hoods are vital in conducting experiments involving volatile or hazardous substances, mitigating exposure risks, and ensuring compliance with safety standards.

By maintaining negative air pressure within the hood and providing a controlled environment within its enclosure, these fume hoods protect laboratory personnel and contribute to maintaining overall lab safety. They are crucial in research environments, assisting in the direct handling of substances while the air is safely filtered and vented outside the laboratory space.

Recommendations

To maximize the efficacy and lifespan of your laboratory fume hood, regular maintenance checks and cleaning are recommended. Ensure that the airflow remains unobstructed by periodically checking the duct system for any blockages or wear. Keep the work surfaces clean and ensure the materials used in any experiments do not exceed the hood’s capacity or chemical resistance levels. In situations requiring the handling of strong acids and alkalis repeatedly, opting for the additional outer centrifugal blower may enhance performance.

Take advantage of optional accessories such as epoxy resin boards or ceramic boards for increased chemical resistance. Regularly schedule professional checks to ensure all electrical components, such as the built-in axial flow blower and LED lamp, function optimally.
