FUME HOOD CABINET AZA1086

The AZA1086 Laboratory Fume Hood Cabinet is a critical safety and ventilation system designed to protect laboratory personnel from exposure to hazardous fumes, vapors, gases, and particulate matter generated during chemical handling and experimental procedures. Engineered to meet international laboratory safety standards, this unit provides a controlled working enclosure that supports safe, compliant, and efficient laboratory operations.

AZA1086 is available in both ducted and ductless configurations, allowing flexibility based on laboratory layout, infrastructure, and environmental requirements. Ducted models expel contaminated air outside the facility through an exhaust system, while ductless models utilize advanced filtration technology to clean and safely recirculate air back into the laboratory.

Description

Description

The fume hood cabinet creates a negative-pressure workspace that effectively captures airborne contaminants at the source. It is designed for continuous use in chemical laboratories where volatile solvents, acids, bases, and reactive substances are handled.

Constructed using chemical-resistant epoxy-coated steel, the cabinet ensures long-term durability even in corrosive environments. The work surface is available in phenolic resin or polypropylene, both known for their excellent resistance to chemicals, moisture, and heat.

A vertically sliding tempered glass sash provides visibility and operator protection while maintaining proper airflow balance. The sash is counterbalanced for smooth operation and reduced user fatigue.


Ventilation and Airflow Performance

AZA1086 maintains a face velocity of 0.5 m/s, ensuring effective containment of hazardous vapors. The airflow performance complies with ASHRAE 110 and EN 14175 standards, which define laboratory fume hood containment, safety, and efficiency requirements.

Optional airflow monitoring systems and audible/visual alarms continuously track operational conditions and alert users in case of airflow failure or unsafe conditions.


Ducted vs. Ductless Configuration

Ducted Model

  • Direct exhaust of contaminated air outside the building
  • Suitable for high-volume chemical usage
  • Recommended for aggressive or unknown chemical emissions

Ductless Model

  • Equipped with activated carbon and HEPA filtration
  • Energy-efficient with reduced HVAC load
  • Ideal for laboratories with limited ducting infrastructure

Design and Safety Features

  • Epoxy-coated steel structure for corrosion resistance
  • Tempered glass sash for impact resistance and visibility
  • LED internal lighting for clear workspace illumination
  • Noise-insulated blower for quiet operation
  • Optional chemical storage base cabinet
  • Optional explosion-proof fittings and linings
  • Integrated service utilities (gas, water, vacuum – optional)

Typical Applications

AZA1086 Laboratory Fume Hood Cabinet is widely used for:

  • Acid digestion and chemical synthesis
  • Solvent evaporation and sample preparation
  • Titration and wet chemistry analysis
  • Pharmaceutical formulation and R&D
  • Petrochemical and industrial quality control
  • Academic teaching and research laboratories

Compliance and Standards

The unit supports Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) and complies with:

  • ASHRAE 110 – Fume hood performance testing
  • EN 14175 – European laboratory fume hood standards

These standards ensure safe containment, airflow stability, and operational reliability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the purpose of a laboratory fume hood?
A laboratory fume hood protects users by capturing and removing hazardous chemical vapors, fumes, and dust generated during experiments.

Q2: What is the difference between ducted and ductless models?
Ducted hoods expel contaminated air externally, while ductless hoods filter air through carbon and HEPA filters before recirculation.

Q3: Is AZA1086 compliant with laboratory safety standards?
Yes. It complies with ASHRAE 110 and EN 14175 airflow and containment standards.

Q4: Can this fume hood be customized?
Yes. Dimensions, worktop material, filtration type, storage cabinets, and service fittings can be customized based on laboratory needs.

Q5: What maintenance is required?
Routine inspection of airflow, sash operation, and filter replacement (for ductless models) is recommended. Ducted systems require periodic duct inspection.
