Application

  • Chemical Laboratories
    • Fume hoods are extensively used in chemical laboratories to handle and manipulate volatile and hazardous chemicals. They provide a controlled environment for tasks such as chemical synthesis, sample preparation, and handling of corrosive substances.
  • Pharmaceutical Research and Development
    • Fume hoods play a crucial role in pharmaceutical laboratories where researchers work with potent drugs and active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). Fume hoods ensure the containment of hazardous substances during formulation, analysis, and quality control processes.
  • Biotechnology and Life Sciences
    • Fume hoods are utilized in biotechnology and life science laboratories for activities involving genetically modified organisms (GMOs), cell culture, recombinant DNA work, and microbiological research. These hoods help prevent contamination and maintain sterile conditions.
  • Academic Research Facilities
    • Fume hoods are commonly found in university and academic research laboratories. They support a wide range of scientific disciplines, including chemistry, biology, physics, environmental science, and engineering, by enabling safe experimentation and analysis.
  • Industrial Manufacturing
    • Fume hoods are used in industrial settings where the production or processing of chemicals, solvents, and other hazardous materials takes place. They protect workers from toxic fumes generated during manufacturing processes, such as mixing, distillation, and purification.
  • Quality Control and Testing Laboratories
    • Fume hoods are essential in quality control and testing laboratories, ensuring the safe handling of chemicals and samples during analytical testing, quality assurance, and product verification. They maintain the integrity of the testing environment and protect personnel from potentially harmful substances.
  • Environmental Analysis
    • Fume hoods are employed in environmental testing and analysis laboratories to analyze air samples, water samples, and soil samples. They aid in the measurement of pollutants, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and other contaminants without exposing laboratory personnel to harmful substances.
  • Forensic Laboratories
    • Fume hoods are used in forensic laboratories for tasks such as evidence processing, chemical analysis, and drug identification. They help protect forensic scientists from potentially hazardous substances and maintain the integrity of the evidence being analyzed.
  • Nanotechnology Research
    • Fume hoods are utilized in nanotechnology research facilities where scientists work with nanoparticles, nanomaterials, and other potentially harmful substances. They ensure safe handling and containment of these materials during synthesis, characterization, and manipulation.
  • Radiopharmaceutical and Radiochemistry Laboratories
    • Fume hoods are employed in laboratories working with radioactive materials, such as radiopharmaceuticals and radioisotopes. They provide containment and protection against radiation exposure while handling, synthesizing, and analyzing these substances.

6 Questions to Ask When Buying a Fume Hood:

  1. Which chemicals will you use within the hood?
  2. Is a ducted or ductless hood best suited to your needs and available space?
  3. Where will you place the fume hood in the lab? Consider workflows, access to external exhaust systems, and competing air patterns.
  4. What size fume hood will best suit your needs? Be sure to consider what (if any) equipment will be enclosed in the hood.
  5. Are any service fixtures or accessories such as airflow monitors, electrical outlets, water, or gas fixtures required?
  6. Are base cabinets for acid, solvent, or non-chemical storage required?
