Face velocity is the average amount of air that is pulled through the face of a hood. If these velocities are too low then chemical fumes can escape the hood and go back into the lab. If the velocities are too high, energy costs will be high as you exhaust large amounts of conditioned air from the room. In other words, if too much air is being pulled into the machine (high volumetric flow) it becomes extremely inefficient. If too little air is being pulled into the machine (low volumetric flow), then it can be dangerous for those around the equipment. Airspeed is everything when discussing face velocity. Today we are going to discuss fume hood face velocity requirements, so you can keep your equipment safe and efficient.
Average velocity is calculated by dividing the sash opening into an imaginary grid pattern. Each square of this grid should be approximately 1ftsq. Then take air measurements (velocity readings) at the center point in each of these imaginary squares. You can do this using a velometer, anemometer or similar device. Each one of these readings should be for approximately 10 seconds (the longer the better). Record the reading in a notepad and repeat until you have measured from all squares. Once complete analyze the measurements and look for outliers.

Variable air volume fume hood
Variable air volume (VAV) hoods are tested in a similar manner to CAVs for determining airflow face velocity. The hood is set to the operational sash opening position as specified in the contract documents or as agreed to between the owner/buyer and then the velocity is measured in the same way as in CAV fume hood.
The sash position should then be reduced to 50% of the specified opening and repeat airflow face velocity measurements/calculations as described above. The same procedure should also be carried out at 25% of the specified opening and fully open for reference and safety purposes.
Face Velocity too fast: Velocities greater than 0.8 m/s are likely to generate eddy currents around users standing in front of the cupboard and these are then able to draw contaminants out through the aperture, particularly during movement by the operator.
Face velocity too slow: In a standard fume hood it is unlikely that velocities below 0.4 m/s are able to arrest and contain contaminants within the enclosure, particularly where external air movements, due to movement of users or opening/closing of doors and windows, are likely to exceed the face velocity. In special situations, the fume hood may be designed specifically to operate at low face velocities.
• Hoods should be evaluated by the user before each use to ensure adequate face velocities and the absence of excessive turbulence.
• In case of exhaust system failure while using a hood, shut off all services and accessories and lower the sash completely. Leave the area immediately.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?
