Metrolabs - General Chemistry Fume Hoods
Metrolabs Laboratory Furniture provides high performance general chemistry laboratory hoods protect the user from harmful or toxic fumes or vapors generated from a broad range of applications. Containment-enhancing features allow them to operate at lower face velocities than traditional hoods while being energy-efficient and protecting the operator.
Chemical- and heatresistant, fiberglass-reinforced composite panel liners with Opti-Zone baffles. Opti-Zone decreases the typical face velocity variations found with other baffles and provides horizontal flow. Its unique slot pattern and sizes increase velocities in the middle and at the work surface where it is needed while slowing velocities at the corners. This uniformity lowers the required average face velocity necessary for containment. Tapered entry slots decrease resistance to air entering the baffle and promote horizontal air streams that enhance containment.
Fiberglass withstands exposure to a wide range of laboratory acids, solvents and alkalies. It will not absorb spills and resists staining and discoloration. Its smooth one-piece surface with radiused corners has no cracks or crevices for contaminants to collect. Minimal maintenance is required.
