Our chemical fume hood is a critical piece of equipment found in laboratories and research facilities. It serves as a vital safety apparatus designed to protect scientists, researchers, and laboratory personnel from exposure to hazardous chemicals, toxic fumes, and noxious vapours.
This enclosed workspace functions by creating a controlled environment that prevents potentially harmful substances from escaping into the laboratory. A chemical fume hood typically consists of a transparent sash or sliding door that can be adjusted to control airflow and access to the work area. It incorporates a powerful ventilation system that draws air and any potentially dangerous fumes away from the operator and into a specialised exhaust system for safe disposal or filtration.
