Laboratory Fume Hood Cabinet
A fume hood is a type of local exhaust ventilation device that is designed to reduce exposure to hazardous or toxic fumes, vapours or dusts. It’s mainly used in hospital labs, clinical trial labs, chemistry labs, university science labs, microbiology labs etc.

1. Protection from Airborne Contaminants:
Fume removal:
Fume hoods are designed to draw in and exhaust air-borne contaminants like toxic gases, vapors, aerosols, and dusts, preventing them from entering the laboratory environment and being inhaled by personnel.
Minimizing exposure:
By containing potentially harmful substances within the hood, fume hoods reduce or eliminate the risk of exposure to toxic or volatile chemicals, volatile liquids, and dusts.
Safety during reactions:
They provide a protective barrier during chemical reactions, run-away reactions, or potential explosions and fires.
Odors and other unpleasant substances:
Fume hoods also help to control odors and other unpleasant substances that may be generated during laboratory experiments.
2. Key Features and Operation:
Ventilation:
Fume hoods are typically equipped with exhaust fans that draw air into the hood and vent it outside the building, preventing recirculation of potentially contaminated air.
Sash window:
A sash window allows for easy access and manipulation of equipment while minimizing exposure.
Airflow control:
Fume hoods should be used with proper airflow velocity within the work area.
3. Specific Uses:
Laboratory experiments:
Fume hoods are essential in chemistry and other labs where hazardous or volatile substances are used.
Research and development:
They play a critical role in research and development activities involving chemicals, potentially explosive materials, or other hazardous substances.
Specialized uses:
There are specialized types of fume hoods, such as those for distillation, that are designed for specific applications.
4. Importance of Safe Use:
Proper certification:
Ensure that fume hoods are certified and properly maintained to ensure they are operating effectively.
Using the sash correctly:
Always keep the sash lowered to maintain proper airflow and minimize exposure.
Work practices:
Always work at least 6 inches from the front of the fume hood, and avoid creating drafts.
Material handling:
Store materials in closed containers when not in use and avoid exposing hazardous materials to the open air.
Not for biological materials:
Fume hoods are not appropriate for working with biolog
It protect the worker and the work place
