Product Description
Specific chemical workflows have propelled design changes in cabinet size, shape, materials, and integrated equipment. The most familiar and ubiquitous designs are the general purpose standing or benchtop ducted hood, which exhausts vapors outside through building HVAC; and the portable filtered hood, with efficient molecular filters that release clean air back into the laboratory.
There are several other specialized types, however, each with their own associated materials and components. Distillation and floor-mounted hoods, common in pharmaceutical formulation assays, contain tall interior cabinet spaces for large equipment, often with walk-in capacity, although the user should always stay out.
Acid digestion hoods are often employed by investigators to identify elemental compositions of alloys, and their cabinets usually contain polyvinyl chloride liners instead of fiberglass or steel, to avoid acid etching.
Radioisotope hoods contain built-in lead shielding, and seamless corners to allow for thorough reagent clean-up and appropriate disposal. There is, finally, a specific hood design just for work with perchloric acid, which attenuates sparking and friction to mitigate explosion risks, and contains acid-resistant liners, with an integrated washdown system.

How do you know whether the working face velocity is adequate to sequester vapors away from you? The first line of defense is to strictly adhere to regular re-certification paradigms scheduled through chemical safety officers. This will ensure that the hood performs to its standards, and extend its longevity. For daily use, however, an external monitor is an integral element in a new hood system, or a key upgrade in an existing system.
Contemporary monitoring devices can function via sidewall sensors that measure flow-through of clean ambient air, and inline or probe sensors that detect velocity within ducting for exhaust air leaving the hood. Alarms notify users when face or duct velocities are compromised, via visual, auditory, and remote app-based notifications. Parameters and thresholds can be changed via touchscreens sensitive to gloved fingers, and performance data can be recorded and analyzed in compliance both with ANSI/NFPA standards, and with GLP/GMP guidelines
As a best practice, the lower the sash handle is, the safer the user will be. Hoods should never be used at full open-this is for setup only. Working with an 18-inch opening on a vertical sash is far safer than working at full open.
When you stand in front of the sash opening, your body acts like an airplane wing; the air being drawn into the hood flows over your shoulders and around your sides, creating a low-pressure zone directly in front of you. This low-pressure area in front of you will attempt to pull air from inside the hood outward, creating a loss of containment and possible exposure. This is why you always work at least six inches behind the sash to keep chemicals out of the area of reverse flow.
Next, extend your hands and arms into the hood and move them about. What are they doing to the airflow? Picture yourself in a canoe, your arms are the paddles, and just as the paddles can displace large amounts of water, your arms can displace large amounts of air creating turbulence and disrupting the airflow. This is a recipe for loss of containment. When working in the hood, move your hands and arms slowly and deliberately.
6 Questions to Ask When Buying a Fume Hood:
-Which chemicals will you use within the hood?
-Is a ducted or ductless hood best suited to your needs and available space?
-Where will you place the fume hood in the lab? Consider workflows, access to external exhaust systems, and competing air patterns.
-What size fume hood will best suit your needs? Be sure to consider what (if any) equipment will be enclosed in the hood.
-Are any service fixtures or accessories such as airflow monitors, electrical outlets, water, or gas fixtures required?
-Are base cabinets for acid, solvent, or non-chemical storage required?
